Mai Pen Rai attitude !!!
si tu ne restes qu'en Thaïlande pendant tes 2 mois, un visa simple entrée suffit. Ils sont gratuits pendant 1 an.
si, pendant tes 2 mois, tu comptes aller au Laos/Cambodge/Birmanie/Malaisie, fais avec l'exemption de visa de 30 jours à l'arrivée puis des visas run de 14 ou 15 jours

Bonjour ,

Le visa run je deconseille a moins d'etre proche d'une frontiere ou d'aimer se sentir comme une poule en cage !

Oui jusqu'au 10 mars , mais à partir du 1er avril ils refont cette opération visa gratuit jusqu'à l'année prochaine . Ce qui veut dire que entre le 11 mars et le 31 mars les demandeurs pour le visa devront payer , c'est balot mais c'est comme ça .

Bonjour,
Le plus simple est de demander le visa qui correspond le mieux à ton projet. Si tu séjournes 60 jours maxi sans sortir du territoire, un visa simple entrée/ 60j te suffit.
Il te donne droit à 60j exactement, c'est le passage à l'immigration à l'entrée et à la sortie qui compte.
Dès l'obtention de ton visa, vérifie bien le nombre de jours qui te seront accordés par le Consulat.
Plus le visa est complexe, plus il est cher, donc ce n'est pas la peine de prendre plus long, et au jour d'aujourd'hui ces visas sont payants, mais tu as le temps d'attendre la gratuité qui a été annoncée à partir d'avril 2010 (date de la demande).
Ne fais pas établir ton visa trop tôt non plus; l'entrée doit se faire dans un délai de 3 mois pour un simple entrée.
Il existe d'autres façons de séjourner avec visa (ou sans), mais vu ton projet et les délais, ça me semble le plus simple.

oui, tout à fait, mais c'est rentable niveau prix seulement si tu comptes aller dans l'un des pays frontaliers (à payer : le transport + le visa de l'autre pays, sauf la Malaisie)
sinon, visa 2 mois simple entrée, c'est plus simple, tu n'as pas à te préoccuper d'aller refaire ton visa et donc à te rapprocher d'une frontière.

J'aimerais savoir si la gratuité du visa pour la Thaïlande n'est disponible qu'en France ou est-ce une "promotion" internationale? Je suis au Québec et j'ai l'intention de me procurer un visa de 60 jours pour juin-juillet...

Je viens de recevoir la réponse à mon message envoyé au Consulat Royal de Thaïlande à Montréal et nul part il n'est indiqué/dit que le visa sera de nouveau gratuit en avril... Où as-tu trouvé cette information?
TOURISME – Le gouvernement décide de prolonger les mesures de relance.
Le gouvernement a accepté hier de prolonger d'une année plusieurs mesures pour stimuler le secteur du tourisme, comme l'a proposé le ministère du Tourisme et des Sports, a annoncé le porte-parole adjoint du gouvernement, Watchara Kannika, cité par le Bangkok Post. Six mesures ont ainsi été prolongées.
Premièrement, les touristes étrangers bénéficieront toujours de l'exemption de taxe sur les visas touristiques et d'une assurance anti-émeute gratuite d'une valeur de 10.000 dollars.
Les opérateurs hôteliers verront leur dépôt de garantie à la consommation d'électricité réduit. Les taxes d'atterrissage et de parking seront elles aussi réduites pour les compagnies aériennes. Les entreprises qui organisent des séminaires, des stages de formation ou des voyages touristiques intérieurs pour leurs employés pourront directement déduire leurs frais réels du revenu imposable sur les sociétés.
Enfin, les organismes d'Etats continueront d'être renforcés pour tenir des séminaires et organiser des excursions en Thaïlande, et ainsi favoriser les dépenses domestiques. Le ministère du Tourisme et des sports espère qu'entre 15,3 et 15,5 millions de touristes étrangers viendront visiter la Thaïlande en 2010, contre 14,09 millions en 2009.

par contre je comprend pas l ambassade de thailande a lyon me dit qu il me faut acheter un visa payant simple entréé ???
peut tu m aider pour savoir si je doit prendre un visa simple , ou double entréé ou juste y aller et utiliser les visa gratuit donner a l arriver a bangkok ( 30j) celui donner au laos ( 30 j , dont seulement 15j que j utiliserais..) et celui de 30 j qu on me redonneras a l arriver a l aeroport a chang mai( dont 25j que jaurais a faire en thailande pour finir mon voyage de 02 mois en asie..) ??
esque sait les dates de mon billet d avion ( aller et celle de retour au bout de 02 mois ) que les services de l immigration vont prendre en compte ??en thailande
en plus sur le site de thailande a lyon il stipule que pour le visa payant il n est que de 58 jours..je perds 02 j par rapport au visa de 30 j delivrer gratuitement au passage des aeroport..

le problème que tu vas avoir ne viendra pas de l'immigration (ce que tu voulais faire était très bien) mais de la compagnie aérienne qui va t'emmener en Thaïlande.
Comme ton billet retour est éloigné de 2 mois, la compagnie aérienne peut refuser de t'embarquer car elle n'a pas la preuve que tu ne vas pas être refoulé en arrivant.
Donc soit tu prends en avance ton visa pour le Laos (qui montrera à la compagnie que tu vas bouger ensuite) soit tu prends un visa simple entrée thaïlandais 2 mois (qui ne te servira à rien) soit tu achètes un billet à pas cher vers un autre pays de continuation que tu n'utiliseras pas (argent perdu si pas remboursable)
Moi, je prendrais le visa laotien et je ferais exactement ce que tu comptais faire en trajet.
ok , merci chef..cool..
le visa pour le laos je le prend a l avance en france ..par courrier ??

je me glisse sur le terrain épineux des visas !
J'ai demandé l'année dernière un visa double entrée (à monaco) mais comme ils étaient gratuits on ne pouvait obtenir qu'une simple entrée, ballot comme tu dis, surtout quand on a besoin d'une double entrée........Tous les ans c'est le prennage de tête sur le sujet mais le jeu en vaut la chandelle, ce qui me défrise c'est d'arriver en Thailande avec des beaux visas tout neuf et de se faire tamponner la première entrée quand on ne reste que 2 ou 3 jours, pour y revenir 3 mois ou plus, quelqu'un s'est il arraché les cheveux avec ce plan là ? Merci anyway !!!

Hi everyone,
I have to leave for Perth, Australia in a week, for 7 days, and I couldn’t get my international driver’s permit due to processing and delivery delays.
The information I’ve found about whether an international permit is required is contradictory. Some sources say you need one, others say you don’t.
Could anyone let me know if an international driver’s permit is necessary to rent a car in Australia (Perth), or if a French license is enough for a 7-day rental?
Thanks in advance for your advice

hi everyone,
I need to apply for a new eTA for Canada.

because I can’t find my old eTA number anymore.
thanks for your replies, have a great weekend
Hi there,
I know there are similar topics here and elsewhere, but they’re a few years old, and I need an up-to-date answer to make sure I don’t throw over 1000 € out the window. Thanks for your patience.
I’m planning a trip from France to Alberta/British Columbia, and I’m unsure about which bank card to use for the security deposit with the rental company (I’m thinking of going with AVIS).
I contacted Avis Canada, and they told me a credit card is absolutely required. I asked my bank for a credit card (a *real* credit card), but they only offered me a deferred debit card.
My question: For a rental with Avis Canada, is a Gold International Mastercard deferred debit card usable for the security deposit needed to finalize the rental? Is the "CREDIT" label enough? (Some cards say "CREDIT" and others say "CARTE DE CREDIT"—seems minor, but it’s actually a big deal in how the card works.)
I’ve seen conflicting info everywhere I look... My bank says it’s *usually* okay (the deferred debit card), while Avis Canada insists it *must* be a credit card, not debit—even when I mention the deferred debit card.
I know the whole credit card concept is already confusing, and on top of that, some sites say a deferred debit card counts as a credit card, while others say it doesn’t.
Thanks to anyone who can share a recent experience! Have a great day

Hi,
I’m bringing Seresta, an anxiolytic (tranquilizer) from the benzodiazepine family,

I’ll have the prescription with me.
Will this be a problem at customs, and do I need to declare it?
Same question for antibiotics?
Thanks a bunch!
Hi everyone,
I’ll explain my situation.
Unfortunately, I lost my passport, and I only realized it two weeks before my departure for a humanitarian mission in Libya. I’m a nurse, and this mission really means a lot to me.
First, I applied for an emergency passport, but it was denied by the Val-d'Oise prefecture on the grounds that a planned humanitarian mission wasn’t considered an urgent reason.
So, I submitted a biometric passport application on July 20th. Since then, the tracking has been stuck, and the town hall can’t (or won’t) give me any clear information. Every time I call, I get a different story. The last update I received was that the passport had been produced since July 23rd with a status of "about to be shipped," but nothing since then.
I’ve managed to push my departure back to next Tuesday at the latest, but I’m starting to really panic.
Have any of you submitted an application around July 20th, especially in Val-d'Oise (95)? How long did you wait between the passport being produced and it being available at the town hall? Is it normal for this step to take this long?
This mission means so much to me. I had everything organized, and I’m also supposed to attend a friend’s wedding right after near the border.
Thanks so much to those who take the time to respond or share their experience. 😔
Hi,
Can anyone tell me exactly if a passport "valid for the duration of the stay" is enough, or does it need to be valid for 6 months after the trip? I checked the embassy’s website, but that info is missing.

Hi everyone,
I’m a bit embarrassed because I need to travel to Quebec from February 27th to March 13th. I’m a regular visitor to Canada—this will be my 10th trip since 1997, plus a year as a permanent resident (2000–2001) and a cross-country run from Vancouver to Halifax in 2011. So, I’m definitely not a terrorist! But since our last trip in July 2015, they’ve introduced this eTA thing. Seems more like a way to make money than to actually secure Canada, if you ask me, but anyway, that’s not the point. I applied for an eTA for myself, my wife, and our two kids. They all got approved within hours, but not me! I was asked to create a GC key and then an IRCC account, which I did. Normally, you get news within 72 hours, but since Monday, January 15th, nothing! In the "message" section of the account, it says "explanation letter (required)" with a deadline of January 25th, but I can’t find any explanation anywhere—despite searching the Canadian government website and Google. No links, nothing! I’ve emailed them but haven’t heard back yet. I’m thinking of calling the Canadian embassy in Paris tomorrow. Even though I’m not stressing yet, it’d be a bummer if everyone else got to go without me! If anyone’s had this issue before or knows what this explanation letter is about, I’d love to hear more.

hi there
I’m heading to Seoul in September, and to do that I need to get a travel authorization that we apply for through K-ETA....... turns out I can (barely, I admit) fill out the form up to the address of our "stay location," but every address I’ve entered has been rejected by the system. I’ve tried my hotel, the Lotte Hotel (which is well-known in Seoul), the airport—basically, I’ve entered at least 20 addresses, all rejected....
So, to anyone who’s successfully gotten the authorization, could you tell me which address you used to get that "elusive" approval?...
Thanks for your help

I’m heading to Laos next spring, but I have a question about the Thai arrival/departure form. I’ll be flying PAR-BKK, then taking the train to Laos (so exiting Thailand), and later re-entering Thailand by train to catch my return flight. Do I need to fill out two forms in this case?

Hi there,
I have a 9-seater passenger vehicle that I use for my business in Paris, transporting people.
I’m planning to go to Algeria with my family.
The vehicle registration lists my company as the owner.
Can I get a TPD (Temporary Admission Document)?
Will I need a KBis extract or a power of attorney?!?

Worst case, I can add my personal name as a co-owner on the registration, but that would be a real shame!

Hi there,
I bought a one-way flight (Ryanair) and a return flight (EasyJet) to spend a week in Morocco in April. My passport expires 3 weeks after the return date. Some websites say the passport must be valid for 3 months at the time of entry. However, it will still be valid both on entry and return, but its validity will only be 1 month at the time of entry (and 3 weeks on the return date, everything prepaid).
It's an individual family trip.
The consulate can't give me an answer—they're still looking into it (really!)
Will Ryanair let me board in Beauvais in 3 weeks?
Thanks for your advice—this is a bit urgent 😕😕😕😕

Hello,
Last year, we stayed for 3 months in Thailand, north of Khao Lak, and were able to benefit from the 2-month visa exemption, renewable for one month by going to Takua Pa to validate a 1-month extension (1,900 baht). This year, it’s a disaster for us—not only were we planning a 4-month stay, adding a visa run in between (which some say is quite risky), but the law is apparently changing in the coming months with the return of the 1-month exemption (plus the usual 1-month option). So, we looked into applying for a 6-month multiple-entry visa, allowing a maximum of 60 consecutive days in Thailand. However, I can’t find anywhere the minimum time required outside Thailand between two stays—do any of you have an idea? Thanks for the info! If you’d like tips on Khao Lak and the surrounding areas, we’ve got some experience, though things change fast! Cheers, Bruno.

Hi there,

We’ve decided to spend one day in Switzerland and another in Italy. Will we need ID (national ID card or passport)? Do we also need ID for our daughter?
Thanks so much for your answers! 🙂

Hi everyone,
Some French friends are visiting NYC (4/5 days around mid-May) from Montreal, Canada. They’ve got their eTA and ESTA approved!
Round-trip transport by bus.
Question: Is the I-94 form required, mandatory, and should it be filled out on the bus or in advance???
Thanks for your RECENT experiences!
See you, Jean.

Hello,
We’ll soon be moving to Madagascar long-term.
As a French national, I need to obtain a short-stay visa that can be converted to a long-stay one. To do this, I have to send the required documents to the Madagascar embassy in Paris.
No issues with that procedure so far.
If I get this visa, once I arrive in Madagascar, I’ll need to provide the same documents to the Ministry of the Interior in Anosy. I’m trying to find an email address or website for the Ministry to check which documents I need to submit (I think they ask for additional ones).
If you have any info on this, I’d appreciate your replies.
Best regards,
M. Buisson Eric
Hi there,
I’d like to know if anyone has already applied for a private visa to Russia with an invitation from a Russian resident. I traveled earlier this year with an e-visa, but since I want to stay longer, I’ll be visiting my friend who lives in eastern Russia. For the visa application, does the invitation need to be on an official paper form issued by the Russian ministry? And most importantly, do I need to present the original for the application, or is there an electronic version that can be sent directly to the consulate in France? Thanks for any info if you’ve gone through this process before!
Best regards,
Gilles

I filled out the B2 form to apply for a visa, created an account on Atvis to pay the visa fees and schedule a meet-up, but every time I try to pay with my Boursobank Visa 1st card, they refuse the payment with a message telling me to check my details (address), even though everything is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening, or maybe they don’t accept Visa cards? Are you aware of this?
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi,
There are rumors going around about the ETA: it must absolutely be on your smartphone in the "ETA" app.
Paper documents might not be accepted. Is this real or just a hoax? Thanks, I’m leaving in 3 weeks. My passport is good to go and my ETA is still valid for a year, but I only printed the email I received. Thanks everyone.

Hi there,
We need to apply for a B2 visa because we visited Iran in 2018. It currently costs $185, but they’re planning an additional $250 fee per person for the same visa—it’s been approved but not yet implemented. Does anyone know when this fee will take effect?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
In November, we're heading off on a 4-month trip. We'll be landing in China and plan to leave the country via a land border into Vietnam.
I’ve read that China may ask for proof of exit within 30 days (flight ticket or other reservation). Since we’d be leaving by land, I’m wondering how this works in practice.
Has anyone here been in this situation recently?
Did the airline ask for an exit ticket before boarding? Did Chinese authorities require proof upon arrival? Is a train/bus ticket to Vietnam sufficient? Is a cancelable or flexible reservation accepted?
Thanks for sharing your experiences! 😊

Hi there,
Just a question that’s probably been asked before (though usually the other way around for my situation :))
My wife and I are heading to the US.
On her ticket, it only has her maiden name (e.g., Martine DUPOND).
On her passport, it’s written as Martine DUPOND épouse AVRY.
No issues for travel, I hope I did the right thing with the ticket?
Then for the ESTA, is just Martine DUPOND enough, or do I need to include the "épouse AVRY" part like on the passport?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
I’m spending a few days in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and would like to cross the Argentine border to make a loop toward Salta and then return to Chile to drop off the rental car.
I’ve heard that crossing the border can be tricky!
Is it possible with a rental company’s authorization? Which company, and at what cost?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!

Hi everyone,
I saw on the French Embassy in Peru’s website and the Peruvian Consulate in Paris’s site that the rule is to have a passport valid for 6 months *after the arrival date* (not the return date).
I arrive in Peru on August 13, 2019 (for about twelve days), and my passport is valid until February 16, 2020.
That’s 6 months and 3 days after my arrival date in Peru. In my opinion, I’m good to go.
But could I still be denied entry if they say I don’t cover the return date or that I’m too close to the 6-month mark?
Thanks for your feedback.

Hi there,
I read on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that it’s possible to apply for a temporary driving permit in China, valid for 1 month. I’m planning to rent a car (without a driver) to explore part of the country next August, so I was wondering:
Has anyone here already gone through this process upon arrival? How long do the formalities take on the spot? Is it possible to handle these steps in advance, before arriving in China?
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Hi
Has anyone been to Rwanda recently and gotten a 3-month visa on arrival easily?
Thanks
