Non O Marriage Visa Extension re-entry financial requirements
Hi Everyone,
Am I correct on re entry into Thailand with a re entry permit with a Non O Marriage visa extension that you don’t need to show 20,000 baht cash etc ?
And that’s only for tourists on visa free entry and tourist visas?
Thanks in advance 🙏
After successful completion of the arrival card online application I was offered an e-sim for $4.00. Anyone know anything about this?
Arriving on December 27th for my 4th visit on visa waiver from USA since February 2025. I am planning to take girlfriend to Japan for a week during my one month stay. I have never extended during any stay and am looking at 80 days in Thailand this year up to this point. Does anyone have good information regarding if this travel will be frowned upon or outright denied now that the crackdown is happening?
Thank you!
Went from visa exemption stamp into Non-O 90 days thai child dependent visa in Thailand. Submitted the whole paperwork in 2 sets that is needed for the 1 year extension (hoping I could get one year straight away). Am I right to assume that for the 1 year extension I will have to resubmit everything even if it's the same immigration office? Couldn't ask the IO as he wasn't bothered. He also stamped me a 3 days earlier date. I didn't see it straight away, just thought it was a weird date for the visa expiry. But didn't want to test my luck by complaining. Also, if a new rental contract is needed does it have to start 3 months prior to extension date or on the date of extension for a year (like 30 days before expiration of Non O 90 days)? TIA
I’m coming in from Canada and I understand my passport gives me 60 days. I do not want to do a border crossing. When is the best time to apply for the 30 day extension?
When arriving at immigration
With a non o retirement visa
Should this document be presented in paper form or can a saved electronic pdf stored on a mobile device suffice
How early into a 60 day visa exempt stamp can I apply for a 30 day extension?
Thanks.
I am planing to get a 90 day non o visa in Australia ,come to Thailand open a bank account,put 800000 baht in account and apply for 12 month extenion based on retirement. I have been coming to thailand regulary over last 2 years on tourist visas for 55 days at a time 2025 3 x .With crackdown on people staying over 150 days i thought its time to get a long term visa
My problem is I dont want to spend 90 days in Thailand to setup the non o visa as getting doctument together to open bank account together then transfering money
Waiting 2 months after money arrives to get extension if I hit some snag along the way will take almost the full 90 days
Any suggestion how i could achive a 12 month extension in less time
Ideally i would like to arrive get a lease on on an apartment open a bank account transfer money return to Australia for a month then return on a new 90 non O and
Extened for 12 months as my 800,000 would had been in bank for 2 months.
More questions... Through the USA (Chicago consulate) I finally began filling out the online application for a non O visa (50+) but was surprised to see that I need to enter information for a return flight. I recall reading in this group that a return flight is not required for a non O retirement visa. Since I do not plan to leave Thailand at the end of the 90 days I really don't have a departure date. Do I need to book two one way flights with the return flight having an option to cancel or modify the date? I also see I need to enter a flight number in order to proceed with the application so I assume I can enter only the arrival flight? I recently read that somebody had their application denied because they failed to enter their middle initial. I definitely do NOT want to make ANY mistakes.
Thanks to all who offer good advice.
I need to set up a thai company. 1 English, 1 Russian and 1 Thai director. Any advise? I will be in bangkok and Hua Hin 28th December onwards.
