Very simple. Buy a tourist visa from a Thai Embassy or Consulate ,and get yourself travel insurance and a ticket,and you're off.

@Mark *******

. OK thanks.

Thanks for your reply Tod. Yep I thought my first online shot was going so smooth too. Cannot think of anything that I've not adhered to since last report in person. So do I just do as I have before?

I only know that his photo was taken at CW the first time. He's in Lao now hopefully getting a tourist visa so I'll ask him when he's back.

As do I.

Interesting,as is the fact, that on his first experience he Was,taken out to the said CW for this service inclusive of having his photo taken there. One year and about 8 days ago.

Robert A. Piccus. Agree,but,many are doing exactly the same, and as I said, his first time with the same company worked perfectly ok,so I guess one would logically think it would again for him,as has been the case for his buddy with a different agent but exactly the same needs and at the same time. Anyway, as I opened, I was only trying to give others a "Be Careful", which I thought may help some.

@Mark *******

. Incidentally, who is potentially in trouble if anyone is caught?

Correct Tod. However he did on the first occasion.

Mark Barron. Maybe but then it would seem many without the financials use this avenue. I've another friend who has twice,and no problems. They seem an extremely expensive way to go.
