ubonjoe Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 If you are Udon Thani you can just travel to the bridge in Nong Khai and cross over to Vientiane and apply for single entry tourist visa at the Thai embassy consular section there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can obtain setv. You can extend that. Depending on history you can do some visa exempt entries at borders. 2 per year at borders. You might manage a year in thailand. Consider spending some time Saigon. Lot of kids in district 1. Depending on passport you may be visa exempt to Vietnam Edited February 20, 2019 by DrJack54 Error 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritTim Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I think @ubonjoe has given you suitable advice. You can stay in Thailand for a while using a combination of 60-day stays on tourist visas from the Thai consulate in Vientiane; two (maximum) 30-day visa exempt entries per year by land; and extending each entry of 60 or 30 days by a further 30 days at an immigration office in Thailand on payment of 1,900 baht. Note that you cannot do this indefinitely. As Joe intimated, you can probably stay easily for up to a year, but it will be difficult to stay longer than that without some other approach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for VISA advice, I'd get a tourist VISA in Suvannakhet or Vientienne, stay a month in Laos while getting the VISA, then a month in Siam Reap, Cambodia. Just shuttle around those 2/3 countries. Just to point out Siam Reap is full of young single/groups western lady backpackers in their 20s. Edited February 20, 2019 by BritManToo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your young and if your able to support yourself here (with help) then go for it. Back to your OP...fact is for people under 50 and even more so for young travelers, they (immigration) will look at you harder. As I mentioned in my first post, living here ongoing is possible only for certain amount of time. However its possible for perhaps year up. Depends on few things. One important one is how long out of Thailand. Perhaps consider mixing your time up in Asia. I live bkk but I travel a LOT to Vietnam.

In your op you mentioned not wishing to do border runs. You cannot obtain a visa in Thailand and also visa exempt also requires you to exit and reenter los. Immigration will look harder and harder as you try and live almost continuously in Thailand. Some members above have given good advice. One was to spend some time Cambodia. Mine was Vietnam. Some countries are visa exempt to Vietnam. That's why asked your passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young western folk seem to congregate in Luang Prabang. Exactly. I love thailand, however if I was in op situation I would do exactly as britman suggested. A month here a month there. Over last 5 years absolute explosion of backpackers in places like saigon, Hanoi, and many others. Air fares are cheap to these countries. When one thinks about it if someone was happy to spend time out if los (perhaps 5ish months/yrs) you could stay in Asia for quite some time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyhat Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I'm no expert but since nobody else has suggested it I'll put it out there. OP why not get an ED visa and study Thai at a private language school? Then you've got a year before you have to do another border run and only have to report to immigration.
