For a remote worker applying for DTV, does my employer's company need to be registered in the country where I am applying for DTV?

For example, if the company is US-based and registered in the US, but the project is in Laos and I, as a Taiwanese national, can work entirely remotely, can I apply for DTV in Laos with the company’s US registration? Or does the company need to be registered in Laos?

I am Dutch passport holder flying into Lao do I need a visa?

Hello,

Just wanted to say that thanks to the help of the admins on this page, I have just returned from Savannakhet with the single-entry Non-O based on marriage.

The documents I submitted were as follows:

- Savannakhet specific applciation form (left section about "guarantor in Laos" blank, gave wife's details as "guarantor in Thailand")

- Two passport photos

- 2000 THB application fee

- Copy of rose-bordered marriage certificate, both sides, signed by wife and me

- Copy of Kor ror 2, both sides, signed by wife and me

- Copy of wife's Thai ID signed by her

- Copy of wife's housebook signed by her

- Copy of my passport biodata page signed by me

- Copy of Laos visa and entry stamp, signed by me

I did give them the original marriage certificate and kor ror 2, but these were given straight back to me. I also had my wife with me, but there was no indication this was necessary. No interview, in fact no interaction at all with the officer. Just handed over the documents and was given a ticket to collect my passport the next day.

Some things first timers organizing their own travel might like to know:

- You can take the bus from Mukdahan to Savannakhet, it runs frequently. Be warned that hotels might tell you that you need to hire a taxi.

- The bus is only 45 thb but don't expect change if you give them more than that at the ticket office

- Do the Laos e-visa instead of visa on arrival. I was the only one in the VOA queue so it only took 5 minutes but the bus still left without me.

- Laos immigration officers might ask you for 100 THB because...well, you can probably guess. No receipt of course.

- Then you might also have to pay 20 THB to go through the electronic gates on the Laos side. This and the last point apply whether you are entering or leaving.

Hi. Has anyone recently used the Third Thai Laos friendship bridge in Nakhon Phanom to get into Laos recently? How was the crossing experience? What's the cost for the visa on arrival for US citizen? Planning to spend a few days there and going the same way back into Thailand.

Hi everyone. I have a multiple entry non O Visa based on marriage from Savannakhet expires in July 2020

Usual thing 90 days nearly up.

My plan is to go to Laos for the weekend.

What is the latest news for leaving Thailand and then reentering over the friendship bridge.

Any news on Laos visa on arrival ( sorry off topic).

Do I need any medical certificates totally savvy with the usual stuff required.

Thanks.

Keep healthy.

Hi guys . I'm about to go in laos for make a students visa for Thailand . Some people tell me its really difficult to have in Vientiane. Anyone have some recent experience to share with me ?

Dear expats, once more a question:

Im going to Laos to apply for non b visa in savannakhet, but i still dont have the WP3, as my employer is telling me that they cannot apply for it as long as im still in the country.

So they told me iwill be arriving to Savannakhet, start the application without the WP3 and inform the people in the embassy of this. Once i get the WP3 (which should take 5-7 days) i'm supposed to go back to the embassy, give them tbe WP3 and pick up my visa.

Is this plan reasonable? can they accept the documents without the WP3? is there any point in starting the process without it? As far as i know, if i give them everything at the same time, i will get the visa the next day but im not sure if this is the case currently, as i did my last non b around two years ago.

Please let me know your toughts

Advice for those presenting bills/notes to Thai Consulates and Laos Immigration abroad in Vientiane and Saigon (Ho Chi Minh) for payment of visas: make sure your $USD are crisp and clean. I've had both experiences from Laos (Friendship Bridge in Laos) and the Thai Consulate in Saigon (HCM City) who wanted crisp and clean (no cuts or rips ) on the $USD currency.

Hi, I need an advice. I got a redmark in laos for the first time and I already did visarun in myanmar and cambodia. Should i change my passport or can I go somewhere to get extension again? Thank you . 🙏

Experience at Nong Khai Border run yesterday:

Can not stamp out Thailand, you do not have the TM 6 Departure card, colleague smiling and notching yes.

I got back passport, open it up on last page with card stapled to the page. Officer not happy, went 5 times through the passport but stamped me out.

Loas Immigration took 40 minutes to give the Visa On Arrival, you can walk straight in, but I get called aside, you have no visa in passport. I opened passport on the visa page and handed it back and just said: You mean this visa, another officer not happy. Stamped out Laos without any problem.

Enter Thailand, note all the pens provided do not work.

Handed over my passport, 3 times she looked at all the pages, than give all back. You have not filled in an address, I said I take taxi into Nong Khai and look for hotel. NO, you are married you need to give address of your wife. Senior Office stood behind her and acknowledged, so I filled in the address. Stamped in without further problems with a Visa Exempt Entry..
