Lao & Cambodia need to book an appointment

Currently for Vientiane, Svannakhet the usual wait is around 3 weeks to get slot.....

Phnom Penh need to book appointment and processing is minimum 10-15 working days....

Malaysia might be quicker if you can get the paperwork sorted out

Good luck

Documents are fine.

Confirmed this with Labour Office then my coordinator took me to Immigration to see if they would issue Non-B extension with just the receipt... Of course the Immigration Official said 'No' but he did say that once the Work Permit is in my possession, come back to see him and Visa extension would be granted (once fee is paid) and completed within ½ an hour.

Thank you Ellie for your detailed response. That's what I thought. The new coordinator at the school hasn't been involved in this process before. He advised me differently, which created my uncertainty and post.

Thank you for your time.🙏
