We Tried non O to stay with non Thai spouse family in Vientiane Laos they only granted her a TR single entry.

Kota Bhuru said couldn't be done so did Savannakhet. By email.

Immigration chonburi and Bangkok suggests it can be done on the back of non O out of Thailand (she is under 50) & said just try other countries Thai consulates.

I did have an offer from an agent

,. it involved getting a sticker visa for Laos ? From Laos embassy first + 30,000 bath. Agent costs??sticker visa ??

Not an evisa they specified sticker

I would like to know how people are doing it

At immigration In country they said if over 50 they can change TR to a non O.
