rbr1992 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Do you need to provide proof of funds, an outbound ticket and proof of address when applying for a tourist visa in Vientiane? Does cash in hand count as proof of funds? Also where can you get copies of your passport and passport photos in Vientiane? How many tourist visas can you get per year? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lovethailandelite Posted August 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2019 From Thai Visa service regarding VientianeUPDATE 6.8: for Tourist Visa, Consular Officer will review your visa history and in case you have a history of previous Tourist visa your application will be denied. Now also Vientiane is asking for proof of funds, Book Bank with balance THB 20,000.- up OR print out from your Bank account from home country value USD 700.-up. Onward air ticket is not required.https://www.thaivisaservice.com/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lovethailandelite Posted August 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2019 From Thai visa service regarding Savannakhet UPDATE 27.7: Tourist Visa, apply if your stay is less than 90 days in past 6 month, still MUST show own Thai Book Bank with balance THB 20,000.- up OR print out from your Bank account from home country value USD 700.-up.

dean2926 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I'm a 74 year old Aussie and got a SETV from Vientiane about two weeks ago. They did not ask for a return ticket, proof of funds or proof of accommodation in Thailand. They did however require a contact address in Thailand. I'm a regular in Thailand and have many tourist visas but I only get one every year from Vientiane. Getting the visa is only the first part as I'm often stopped and questioned at Don Meung Airport but always get through without proof of funds or return ticket. I'm sure my age is a factor because I'm no longer a working age. If I was the OP I would definitely provide proof of funds and accommodation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticTam Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Regarding photos and copies of passport etc., if you are staying in town there are several copy shops. I always use the Fuji shop on Rue Samsenthai at the corner facing the Kualao restaurant, which is five minutes from the Nam Phu fountain. Remember you need to book your appointment at the Thai Consulate well in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
