Typical Visa Question

I will be leaving for a few countries soon, and I am wondering which countries I should apply for a visa for, before I leave the US. The countries I will be going to(in order) are:

Australia
Indonesia
Singapore
Malaysia
Thailand
Cambodia
Laos
Vietnam
India

Could anyone tell me which visas I should apply for now? I am leaving April 1st.

Thank you!

Sorry, i don't know, but check the embassies' websites. And do it soon, two months doesn't seem like much time in terms of visas.
Good luck!

Hello!A lot of it depends on how long you will be staying, if you will be re-entering, if you have proof of onward flights etc....You need one for India which is £20 and you can get it from the embassy in your region by either mail or in person.If you are staying in Thailand longer than 30 days you will need one and also if you dont have a confirmed flight upon admittance to the country you will need a one prior to arrivel. Laos requires one also!Hope this helps!I say check out all the individual embassies though to get the specifics for your situations!Good Luck!

Information below is from IATA, as made searchable by Qantas here. I edited it somewhat because it was quite long, so you might want to read it directly from the website to make sure it is all accurate.
