poppyt Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) I've been staying in Thailand for 2 1/2 years on several tourist and non Ed visas. Initially, booked a flight to Udon Thani. However, after reading about immigration at Nong Khai turning back Non Ed holders who didn't have cancelation letters from current school and by the advice of my new school, I ate the 900 baht UT flight and booked a flight direct to Vientiane. I had no issues in Vientiane other than those damn tuk tuks are expensive! Edited November 13, 2014 by poppyt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simondan Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Sorry for asking a dumb question but what is a non ed visa? Im looking at all options to stay on here next year after my business visa expires. An ed visa is looking good - but havent heard of a non-ed visa.

Smurkster Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Where you there 9/11/14, when the place has over 500 people applying that day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volstateguy Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Where you there 9/11/14, when the place has over 500 people applying that day! I was there that day applying for my education visa, my number in queue was 313. I was finished at the embassy by noon or so if memory serves.....I used a visa service and was on the mini bus all night so the morning is almost a blur haha. This was my first visa run so I was assuming the embassy is always that busy with visa applications. Is it not always that busy? Perhaps it was a little extra busy do to the holiday earlier in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it all worked out for ya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Monday and Thursday are the busy days because those are the days that the visa run company vans show up. Go on Tuesday or Wednesday and it will not be as busy. Friday is even better but you have to wait until Monday to get your visa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
