this is clearly a short range transport because of aircraft size. Do you experience the animals in the photo under duress? They are clearly labeled, comfortable and on average okay.

I’ve transported dogs internationally a couple of times including photos while in route. Nothing like this BS image, nothing!

@Graham ******
nothing new. People have been coming here totally clueless for decades, nothing new. 😉

@Graham ******
yes. I’m trying to tell you that’s not entirely true! Different places, different reqs, mine required a proof of residence. I know this as at about the same time I also needed one for a DL (can’t reuse them) and the people I rent from were too dense to complete there own TM30 requirements so the whole process was like pulling teeth. In turn fairly hard to forget. 😉

It seems prudent to express all possible outcomes for people, not the least.

@Graham ******
mine required a proof of residence from immigration. So not entirely true.

I think you’ve had enough feedback to show you are not understanding and/or combining information wrongfully.

Follow the OA instruction from your most local embassy. Mine was in LA. Those instructions got me a non OA.

Oh, when you do apply, put your name as it appears on your passport. I got dinged for that and literally needed to pay to apply again (because gosh forbid editing a single field value is so hard 🙄).
Brian *********
I did, no problem. But your words are crossing over the O and the OA. But you do need to have the approximate equivalent of 800k tbh in your home country bank.

Laos is 1900 visa on arrival. No stay required. Go in, go out.

Pretty wide open query chief. 🤪

1 visa

2 money

3 proper US addresses to keep creditors and the like from shutting down accounts.

Something not always seen is atm use in Thailand accumulates quite a bit. I would suggest having an account like Charles Schwab that refunds atm fees and works everywhere. Right now the fee is ~$6 per transaction. So, that adds up. 👍
