Non-O visa in Vientienne

[Martouf 11]

A friend recently went to Vientienne to apply for 90 day non-O based on retirement. He has all the usual documents, bank statement etc.... But he was refused because they wanted a police clearance report !!!

He was not applying for a non-b. Have they made a mistake or is this really a new requirement

This happened yesterday

It sounds like a mistake. Have never seen a report of it being asked for before.
