Thai Embassy in Vientiane issues warning to visa runners

People who have a history of staying in Thailand using only tourist visas or ‘in-out’ border runs are being warned they may face increased scrutiny from immigration officers.



According to a note apparently posted on the notice board outside the Thai Embassy in Vientiane, Laos, this morning, officers at the consulate remind people they will reject tourist visa applications from anyone it thinks is using tourist visas to stay in Thailand long term.



The notice, a photo of which was shared on Facebook on Monday, reads:



"Thailand always welcome "genuine" tourists".



“However, the embassy has been asked by Thai authorities to observe "irregular" travel record (Travel history, in-out of Thailand) on each passport with pre-caution.



“The Embassy would like to inform that, it reserves the right not to receive any Tourist Visa applications, which may deem as abusing tourist visas (such as: illegally working in Thailand by applying for tourist visa repeatedly etc....



“This is a gentle reminder for this application who may hold such history, in order to avoid unnecessary "over night" stay in Vientiane to hear the visa result (declined) in the next afternoon.”



Current requirements for a Tourist Visa



-- Passport or travel document with a validity not less than 6 months

-- Visa application form (filled out)

-- One(1) recent 4x6cm. photograph of the applicant

-- Round-trip air ticket or e-ticket (paid in full)

-- Proof of financial means (20,000 baht per person/40,000 baht per family)

Tja..jeg forsto ikke helt hva de mener..at man skal ha enten 20 000 eller 40 000 k BATH CASH til fremvisning?

Eneste pengebevis jeg noen gang har oppvist er i cash på utenrikstasjonene..burde det ikke ringe en varsellampe hvis noen visste så mye penger? :? Noe som tyder på at de ihvertfall er visarunners? ;) Men, da har de ihvertfall penger :D

Jeg vet ikke. Det var aldri mange utlendinger i Vientienne når jeg var der..det var mange flere i Penang de gangene jeg var der, Malaysia, hvor samtlige var utlendinger. Men det var også kun 100 personer pr dag også..

Veldig mange så ut til å være fra Phuket i Penang. Minivans var parkert godt synelig utenfor ambassaden og sjaførene ordnet og styrte butikken som en velsmurt maskin inne på ambassaden. Det var en pengemaskin som så organisert ut. Vientienne har kanskje flere asiatere som ikke er thaier, noe som kanskje skiller seg ut?
