Need advise

My friend is cancelling her work permit and nonB to change into visa exemption 60days (border bounce). Can she do it in vientiane via train 133 (bangkok to khamsavath)? If so, where can she get the entry and exit stamps? Nong Khai station or does she have to go through khamsavath vientiane? Thank you 🙏

certainly learnt something about Nong Khai immigration..

went in with all neccesary documentation bank details,long term rental agreement...

ask about converting my 60 tourist visa to a 90day non o visa... NO,go to thai embassy in lao, for the visa..

gave me a photo copy of want they want for a "retirement " visa...

will use an agent to see if they can help , if not trip to Laos,which I don't particularly want to do!!

anoying fact is I could of applied for a 90day non o in London, I took the 60day visa...

Hi

I'm planning to retire in Thailand over 60,live in England deposited 800 000 bhts last week into my thai bank account... confused my self with visa application, my plan is 60 tourist visa get a 30 day extension... apply for non o at nong khai immigration, early Dec!!

any thoughts or comments

cheers

Planning first trip to Nong Kai then across the land border to Laos. I'm on Non O.

(1) If I want a multiple reentry permit, can I get it at the border checkpoint itself ( I have seen one report here - yes for single reentry permit - my question is about multiple reentry permit ). Or should I get it at the Nong Khai immigration office? Or in your experience better to get it locally like BKK?

(2) Not Thai Visa related but... best way to get Lao visa - eVisa (pls recommend website) or just walk up with required documentation at border is smarter?

Much appreciate answers to either question and thank you...

Hi guys, happy new year!

I arrived on a TR visa and will be going to my local immigration in nong khai to apply for 30 days extension shortly.

Am I correct in thinking that as I am married to a thai , my tm 30 is filed at her address, I can apply for a 60 days extension ?

Many thanks.

Hello. Im looking for the latest information about covid visa extentions. Can anyone please provide information?

Hi this is a sort of visa related question I wonder if someone could answer,

Me and my girlfriend live in her house in Nong Khai, back in April I got a slap in the wrists when I went to extend my 60 day tourist visa as we hadn’t informed them of where I was staying, I arrived again last month but we’ve been travelling around staying in hotels so no issues, we’re now heading home and as I’ll probably extend again want to make sure they know so I don’t get told off again, what exactly do we need to do? I’ve seen online about a TM30 that the house master has to fill in and believe it can be done online, someone mentioned to me I would have to fill in a TM28 but I’m not sure as have been in several provinces and not filled one out. Thanks

Right. So, this will probably be of interest to absolutely no one. But I'll go ahead anyway since I'm happy. I went to extend my (tourist) stay at the Nong Khai immigration office today. I was the only "customer" there. If I had pre-filled the application form, it would've been around 10 minutes. What an incredible contrast! (To CW, of course :) )

They did not care about TM30 details, btw. So, application, passport photos, and the usual copies (data page, visa page (if any), current stamp page, and departure card.)

Happy holidays all.

Thank you for the help I received yesterday...I’ve completed the TM7 form and will go to Udon Immigration on Wednesday.....However, I have just seen on Google that Nong Khai immigration are open today. I tried calling them but no answer, Is anyone in that area that could confirm if they are open or not please?

Thank you

Fyi.. This is totally incorrect. You need to go to immigration and switch the visa there. Also requires 2 forms. Application to change to ne passport. Yes there is a typo. The other one is completed by the immigration official and is entirely in Thai. This took a good 30 minutes and I was the only person at nong khai immigration
