You cannot get a new visa in Thailand, you must go to a Thai Embassy or consulate outside Thailand to get a new visa. You can get a non imm O in Vientiane (Laos) under certain circumstances - I have never tried, so I am totally unsure of the circumstances. And I believe it is only a single entry 90 day visa. You can certainly get a FREE tourist visa there (which will last 60 days & then potentially extended (for 1,900 baht) for an additional 30 days at Nong Khai Immigration. You can also get a double entry tourist visa in Vientiane - I think this will cost you 2,000 baht & is good for two times 60 days stay in Thailand - You must physically leave Thailand to enact the second 60 days.
If you want another multiple entry non Imm O visa then I am almost certain that you will have to go back to your home country to obtain - I know we from the UK have to do so....
Thanks Bob and others,
Just visited the Thai Embassy website in Singapore and sent an email regarding getting a Non Immigarnt "O" visa there rather than returning to OZ. Seems they have a requirement for having 400k in the bank on a statement , Does this seem right? My previous Non Imm "O" visas from Perth had no such requirement.
