@James *********

yeah this is my only reservation to doing this, but it would end up costing considerably less than flying to Vietnam for the same visa as Savannakhet

@Benjamin *****

We have about 12 SA teachers currently in Ban Pong. Arrive on a tourist visa and move onto a new visa if you snag a job with a work permit.

Yeah I am asking for a friend and was I guess curious if the over 50 consideration was the same as marriage where proof of funds were not needed in HCMC, obviously not.

Is Savannakhet the only option for a Non-O visa based on marriage without proof of funds?

James ********

Is easy. Just make sure you have a letter written by your wife saying you are married. Past that no proof of funds needed. Embassy is quiet and fast.
