So they tell you to put 500k THB in your bank to get a visa, then they close your bank account because you have a visa

Hi there, I am filling in the application form for Non O visa, a question about the flight number, I will take Turkish Airlines in Toronto and transfer in Istanbul, which flight number should I use? The first one or the second one? Thanks in advance.

So I'm from the UK, and have a question for all the expat OAP's who are on 20 tablets a day like myself? What's the process for prescription meds? Do I need to visit a hospital with my medical history and get it OK'd by a doc first, or can I just stagger out of Soi Cowboy into the nearest pharmacy, no questions asked? Tia

Hello. Are there anyone who recently renewed their thai retirement visa?

My mom’s 15-month retirement visa will expire soon and she wants to renew for another one year. What are the recently updated required documents? She’ll have to renew it in Bangkok Chaeng Wattana Immigration..

We already have all other documents (financial proof and the rental contract, etc) that meets the requirements, except for the health insurance.. Is health insurance certificate required for visa renewal?

And also, what’s the visa renewal fee and the multiple re entry fee?

Thank you in advance.

Hello everyone, I’m flying to Bangkok on the 15th and staying for a month . I’m not just going for vacation but to see if I would like to live there. If so, how long does it take to get a visa and can I stay there while I wait?

Hi Guys, opened my two bank accounts yesterday with KASIKORNBANK in Hua Hin and now want to fund them. First to transfer money to a savings account..and a mimimum of 800k bht then transferring from there to a Fixed Deposit Account which pays some low interest, about 1%, but better than nothing. The minimum 800k bht to stay in that account to satisfy Non O immigrant requirement.

I have been having a nightmare trying to transfer money from my UK Lloyds account..with also exorbitant transfer costs. So transferred some money from my Wise account just to see the difference. The Wise transaction was done in seconds and at a good rate of 43.5bht / £.

I am now thinking of doing the balance with Wise but understand there may be issues in the future.(?). So would appreciate any advice?

And btw: didn’t need to go to immigration at all. Just took my owner documents, blue book etc., together with my passport and that was enough evidence for them to open my accounts. Thank you.

Bangkok Bank appears to be the problem all round. This from Wise

I went through the search function of this group and found posts saying opposite things, so here I am with my situation:

My New passport is completely empty. I got it a few weeks ago.

The last entry on my old passport is a 60 days visa exempt entry, of which I've extended by 30 days, and then by 60 days (visiting Thai wife).

My 60 days will expired on October 5. The immigration office in which I did the 60 days extension is far from where I am, so I'm not going back there to transfer extension (I don't think i need to anyways?).

My plan was to leave via Nong Khai border by showing both passports. So they will void/stamp the old passport, and then on the Laos side I'll do the visa on arrival in new passport. *I will come back by air using safe entry*.

But then, searching the group, I found posts saying conflicting things. My understanding is that since my last entry is visa exempt, I can just do what I said above. But if I was on a longer term visa, I would have to leave by air so that they transfer from old to new passport (something they can't do at border).

Am I correct or missing something?

Thank!

I have been in Thailand since 13 th of July . First I got a stay of 60 days visa free exemption and I extended it for another month and on 10 of October I have to leave Thailand. Now I am planning to visit Hanoi for one week starting on October 4th flying from Bangkok. Will I get another 60 days when I come back to Thailand?

I am asking this because some people say it is not possible because the sum of your stays in Thailand cannot be more than 90 days within 6 months?

I would be happy if someone can give me some precise information from first hand who has experienced this.

Thank you in advance 🙏🙏😊😊
