Vientiane offer only Single Entry, no financial required.

in case you are Russian the answer would be no, they will give 7 days only. Sorry, but next time please include more details.

No announcement yet, hence I'll close commenting. I do hope that they do not implement this idea in Vientiane.

wrong, you can extend each entry by a further 30 days at Immigration.And it is good for Multiple entries, means as many entries as you want in that particular period of validity.

Single Entry Tourist Visa allow a 60 day stay, extendable for 30 days at Thai Immigration, THB 1,900.-, so total 90 days. A Multiple Entry Tourist Visa allow unlimited entries within the 6 month validity period. Each entry is good for 60 days and each entry is extendable by 30 days. After a 90 day period is up you can join a Visa Run to activate another 60 day. If you enter before the ENTER BEFORE date you get another 60 days do another 30 day extension , so you can stay up to 270 days, same as the triple entry before.

yes, I think 1991 or 1992. Was of the brightest idea they ever had. Under government of Anand Panyarachun

Thanks for the update, THB 1,200 is cheap, should be THB 1,500.-, the exit fee on Cambodia side is annoying.....

not just visa run agencies, also most independent travellers use this schedule as they get off work for these days.

Article from THE NATION. I will also close comment as another topic is still open on this subject. The Committee on National Strategic Management yesterday gave the green light to the introduction of smart visas for foreign business operators, investors and employees.

They will be able to stay and work in Thailand for a maximum of four years, as an encouragement for the private sector to invest in Thailand's 10 targeted industries under the government’s technology push. The smart visas will be issued to foreign businessmen, investors and highly skilled workers from January next year. The move came after requests by foreign businessmen for the government to extend the visa periods for foreign experts and investors, allowing them to stay longer in Thailand and facilitating investment. After a meeting of the committee chaired by Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha yesterday, Ampon Kittiampon, director for the Prime Minister’s Delivery Unit (PMDU), said that three groups will be permitted to hold smart visas. Among them is the highly skilled group, made up of people with high innovation expertise. The other two groups include investors who gain the Board of Investment’s (BOI) investment promotional privileges for the 10 targeted industries; the third group comprises those undertaking startups. Prayut assigned the BOI, the Ministry of Labour and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to follow up with amendments to related agencies' regulations and to finalise them within three months, or by December.
