Non-Immigrant B visa to apply for Work Permit,

[LocalYokul]

having gotten all the ducks in a row to go to Laos for a non-Immigrant B visa, I find I am missing one document

 

a letter from the Ministry of Labor

 

Ministry of Labor won't issue me this letter because of my company's registration isn't to their liking

 

lawyers insist that I do not need the letter on the first application, but do require it for extensions later on

 

and the Ministry of Labor will also issue me a letter easily once I have a work permit, which I can get once I obtain a non-Immigrant B visa

 

it's almost like the Chicken and Egg scenario, which came first ?, but I can't get either

 

any one recently gone to Laos to get a Non-Immigrant B, and did they require the letter EVERY time ?

 

I tried calling the Thai Consulate in Vientiane, but to no avail, most of the numbers I got do not work at all, and the one that does ring no one answers

 

Pnom Phen is less of a hassle according the list of documents required, 6 less items that the list in Vientiane

 

but it's much farther to travel and more expensive to get to than Laos for me

From what I have been told you need to have a work permit if you want to get a multiple entry Non-b visa in any country other than your country of birth. If you go to Loas or Penang without a work permit they will issue a 3 month non-b visa then you go back to thailand get work permit,,,,, then you go back after 3 months with work permit and get your 1 year visa.

 

For my last non-b I just flew back to the UK and got the visa in 2 days from Hull with a letter from a thai company. Now I am free to get my work permit.

 

For a definite answer go to thaivisa.com all the info you will ever need about visas is on there.

I would not recommend PP for getting Visa. Last time I went there, I think 2 years ago, the guy raised all holy hell with me. Yelling at me because I came to his Embassy to get the Visa and didn't go back to my own country. He yelled at me "why you not go Malaysia, why you not go USA, why you not go Hong Kong?" Over and over the fucker yelled. It takes 3-4 full working days to process. Make sure you plan for it. They are not open on weekends and weekends do not count in the leadtime.

 

I eventally got the visa in PP. Took 7 days, a 5k baht bribe, and taking a lot of shit from some Thai dude. He then stamps in my passport that I can never return to Thai Embassy in Cambodia again for 1 year Non-Im B visa. Stamped right in my fucking passport!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

The thing is, the fucker actually gave me the new 2 year B Visa instead of the requested 1 year.

Some shit that...either the guy can or cannot issue the visa.

 

If cannot he can fuck you off empty handed and get his kicks....

 

If he can he should just get on with his job.....

 

A 5K bribe and still you get aggravation......

[Big Chief]

There was a French dude there at the same time that argued with the fucker. When I went to pick mine up, the French dude was still there arguing with the guy. I figured it was best to do the "yes sir, sorry sir, I will try to do better next time sir" shit with the guy and pay the bribe.

 

For all I know the French dude didn't get his Visa.

[LocalYokul]

without a work permit they will issue a 3 month non-b visa then you go back to thailand get work permit,,,,, then you go back after 3 months with work permit and get your 1 year visa

so no one misunderstands further, this IS my application for the 90-day visa which I can then use to get work permit

 

Big Chief,,,

 

if I catch shit like that in PP, I will take the high road and go to S'Pore, cause I already did that last November, much easier...

 

[LocalYokul]

new news, I hear that Saigon is the place to go to get multiple entry Non-Immigrant B visa, only down side is that the fee is $150, but it would be well worth the cash

 

anyone have any experience there ?

[sinkorswim]

Well excuse me for trying to help.

so which is it you want a multiple or a 90 day

[LocalYokul]

ok, let's get this straight, I have lived in LOS for over a decade, so those little tidbits in the first post of Sink Or Slump are WAY old data for me

 

in the meantime, I have NOT been having to make visa runs because the companies always provided me the full course, visa and work permit

 

in this case, I have to take care of it myself, so woe is me

 

I would love to get a multiple entry non-Immigrant B, but that's near impossible in Asia

 

but... I hear that Saigon's Thai Embassy issues multiple entry Non-

Immigrant B visas without a hassle, just a whopping $150 fee

 

I would just like some confirmation on one or the other...

 

is the letter from Ministry of Labor required in the initial visa application, or only for extensions ?

 

and can I get a multiple entry Non-Immigrant B visa in Saigon ?

 

 

WTF sink or slump, are you dense ?

 

I said right in the fuckin' text that I was applying to get a 90-day to get a work permit, but a multiple entry would obviously be better

 

I would suggest sex tourists to just not answer on this thread, 555

OOOOOOOHHHHHHHH sink or slump your wit amazes me....did you stay up all night thinking of that.

 

You are abviousley fuckin dense as you put it...............read you post you fucking arsehole WHERE does it say anything about 90 day visa in the first post, you just mention a non-b visa to get a work permit.

 

You question sounds like a newby question so I tried to offer some information that I knew. You did not state you have been here for 10 years and knew the deal with visas. I was just offering advice that it maybe better for you to go to your home country for a 1 year multiple like I did 4 weeks ago.

 

But fuck you I will not offer anymore advice. You post a question and then flame people who try to be helpful.

 

Oh and yes I am that fucking dumb I am 32 years old living in LOS and I dont need to work.

 

I actually now do know the answer to your question but you can go fuck yourself if you think I will give you the information. You sad sad little man.

 

You dont want answers from sex tourists but post on a Pattaya forum that is all about sex tourism............

 

thanks for the sex tourist complement

did you stay up all night thinking of that.

 

you might have, if you think as fast as it seems

and it was the wee hours of the morning when I wrote that, and yes I live in LOS, but just felt compelled to check on sink or slumps excellent advice 

 

maybe better for you to go to your home country for a 1 year multiple like I did 4 weeks ago

 

maybe that's an option for you, but it's a fuckin' long way for me

 

I will not offer anymore advice. You post a question and then flame people who try to be helpful.

 

you're an idiot, full stop

 

Oh and yes I am that fucking dumb I am 32 years old living in LOS and I dont need to work.

 

wow, am I supposed to be impressed, mr. I pay 9k/month for a rental apartment, idiot

 

I actually now do know the answer to your question

 

I don't believe that for a second

 

you can go fuck yourself

 

no, I'll get a nice beautiful non BG Thai lady to do that for me, and for less than 20k/month, 555

 

 

You sad sad little man

 

I'm actually quite happy , and what if I am HUGE ?

 

You dont want answers from sex tourists but post on a Pattaya forum that is all about  sex tourism

 

in case you didn't notice , I posted under Expat Issues, and you are NOT an expat, just another juvenile sex tourist

 

thanks for the sex tourist complement

learn how to fucking spell, and if you consider the sex tourist monogram a compliment then you're only just above the level of education of a 12 year old

 

good day to you sir

 

[sinkorswim]

yes I pay 9k a month for a condo, it is a fantastic condo that I was lucky to get and would cost you upto 30000baht a month in Pattaya........busy building a house....fuckwit. I own 1 rai of land just outside Chiang Mai in Ma Joe.

 

If I where a sex tourist I would live in pattaya and fuck bar girls all week........I live in Chiang mai and am married to a uni student and have not fucked a BG for a long time.

 

I also dont have to pay for a non BG 20000baht per month to fuck me you tosser.

 

Sorry I cant spell but you are still a wanker who over pays and does not no shit about interacting with people in a polite manner.

 

Dont really give a shit what you think of me and you are a sad little man which you have shown by your response to my genuine offer of what I though was helpful advice.

 

Ok I am an idiot who is managing director of 3 companies. Make more money in 1 month than you probably make in 1 year. But that is besides the point rich or poor does not matter you are still a tosser.

 

I am not an expat???????

 

Definition

expatriate

noun [C] (INFORMAL expat)

someone who does not live in their own country:

 

I live here and not in the UK...........and you say I am not an expat??????????????????????

 

Who is the fucking idiot.............anyway I am bored now.

Edited July 23, 2006 by sinkorswim

[LocalYokul]

ok mr. CM, guess what , I am right at your back door, please come out and show me your land near the Uni.

 

yeah, that's right, I am in CM too, but I am not against us meeting up, having a beer or whatever

 

I am seeing UniGals too, big deal. That is what grown men do in CM

 

and all that garble about being the MD of 3 companies does NO impress me. The visa run I talk about is for my own company as well, so excuse me for asking about for those who have some experience in Laos or Saigon

 

I understand you had good intentions in the beginning, and I did not explain that I am no newbie, but just get down from your high horse mr. wizard.

 

I will meet you today if you would like, name the time and place

 

[sinkorswim]

Dont really give a crap if you are in Chiang Mai. I am not bragging about anything I am just responding to the nasty comments you made about me "sex tourist, idiot oh and my favorite education of a 12 year old". I dont need to brag about shit as I know who and what I am.

 

Why do you wanna see my land? I suppose I am full of shit about that too.

 

If you word your question properly including all information then I would not have posted the answer I did. BUT you got up your own arse about it just like you did over the 2000baht ST in Chiang Mai.........which is to much.

 

Any other time I would have met you for a beer but you are rude and impolite for no reason and not the sort of person I would like to drink with so I'll take a rain check...............oh and if the "or whatever" comment was ment to be some kind of vailed threat you are trying it on with the wrong person.

 

Cant be bothered anymore with this crap.

[LocalYokul]

I own 1 rai of land just outside Chiang Mai in Ma Joe

us this the part where we clap ? 

 

 

I live in Chiang mai and am married to a uni student and have not fucked a BG for a long time

UniGals can be more promiscuous than BGs, hope you are wearing a rubber when you are getting busy with your UniWhore.

 

I also dont have to pay for a non BG 20000baht per month to fuck me you tosser.

so what are you paying her ?, is it over 100k, since you are so FUCKIN' rich I would expect such

 

 

I cant spell but you are still a wanker who over pays and does not no shit about interacting with people in a polite manner

umm, you just made it certain that you can't spell, not no shit should = not KNOW shit. but I do not overpay, as I do not pay at all, so get fucked

 

you are a sad little man

but again, what if we meet and I am a HUGE happy guy  ?

 

what will you do then ?

 

will you let me scrape the pavement with your face ?

 

 

genuine offer of what I though was helpful advice.

my whole point was that your advice sucks, just as badly as you do, so get fucked

 

more money in 1 month than you probably make in 1 year.

 

you assume WAY too much there buddy. Tell me the names of your companies, maybe I will buy them, then you can get fucked

 

you are still a tosser.

we are all tossers, I toss 4 times a night if I have no companionship, but last night I didnt 'need to. where was your UniGal ? maybe with me...

 

I am not an expat???????

and no , you're still not an expat in my eyes, so get fucked

 

expats are people who can answer my question w/o giving me bullshit that I already know

 

[LocalYokul]

Any other time I would have met you for a beer but you are rude and impolite for no reason

PUSSY

 

 

[sinkorswim]

yeh right you have just proven my point..................fuck this shit try to help someone and get this crap.

 

Also she is not my whore she is my wife thankyou very much.

Edited July 23, 2006 by sinkorswim

[LocalYokul]

so you are proving my point, you are a pussy

 

was your UniGal a whore when you met her ?

 

can you speak Thai ?

 

or even better,, can you Ooo Meuang ?

 

BTW, you have a PM that includes my phone number, in case you want to meet a real expat

 

[sinkorswim]

your PM has been answered.

[LocalYokul]

well, let's look at the facts

 

i have given pussy boy my phone number , even told him where he can meet me , but no call

 

maybe he figures I am not so sad and pathetic after all

 

fuck him

[sinkorswim]

you have my reply so why are you still carrying this on in the forum. Believe me I aint no pussy just dont see the point in fighting over forum posts..........a little retarded as I have told you in the PM. Dont need to fight someone to prove I am a man......I know I am already.
