My online 90-day application was rejected for no apparent reason (I have successfully applied many times before and know all the rules). I read here that sometimes the rejection email contains an explanation of the reason. Mine doesn't, but there is a message saying "Please contact the nearest immigration office in person immediately". I just wanted to ask if this is a standard message in such an email, or if I should go there as soon as possible. My 90-day deadline is 6th April. Or maybe try to re-apply online again?

I plan on extending my tourist visa in Bangkok but am not sure where it is done. I remember reading somewhere that it is done at a different location than the main Thai immigration office. Does anyone know the address for getting a Tourist Visa extended in Bangkok? Thx in advance. :)

Is there a semi orderly guide posted anywhere for the sequence of events when moving to Thailand?

What I mean is say I arrive from the US with a international driving permit on an a 30 day exempt and grab the extension at the airport for a total 60 days, what needs to happen first besides a LEO and a 7-11 Toastie?

There must be some things dependent on others and a flow when it comes to establishing a bank account, long term rental, drivers license, Visa (ED or retirement), setting up utilities and long term phone and internet, etc

I know i need a bank account to get the visa, but do i need a rental agreement to get the bank account?

Do I pay cash to get the rental until I get the bank account set up?

Bringing an international driving permit, do i need rental agreement and the visa?

I am about a year from moving, but want to hopefully avoid a loop of denials with every action dependent on the others.

Sticking to the same theme of the 'Non-O Extension' 12 MONTH BANKING (yep, I did a search) 800k Route

I just hopped onto my BKK bank app, requested a full year's statement, and boom—I got it in 2 minutes flat. My entire account history is right there on 13 pages.

Is this all we need, along with a bank verification letter? Could it really be this simple after everything I've read?

UPDATE: "No" is the answer. It's not that easy!!. I went to Bangkok Bank today and ordered the 12 month statements that should be here in 5-7 days!! I am on the 800k deposit system. In the old days I MIGHT! have spent a few hours faking the "no-harm" bank statement... NOT TODAY :)

First off such a helpful group. TU! I’m US citizen. 53 years old with a Thai Child living In Thailand. I work outside the country at sea on a ship and can’t be in America to get Visa pre arrival to Thailand. So I always fly in on a 30 day exempt on arrival and then get an 30 day extension. This next trip I’m in country for a total total of 91days.

I fly in I would like to get a 30 Day Exempt on arrival and would like to go to Laos Vientiane, Savannakhet, Ho Chi Menh City to get a 90 day Non O Thai Child Visa. Then before I leave get a multiple Entry 1 year Non O dependent Visa or Extension. I have all needed information. 400k in Thai bank account, Mothers and Daughters ID, Birth Certificate and house book. Plus all my paperwork.

My question is what is the easiest Thai embassy mentioned above to get this accomplished at?

I fly in May 3 and will be flying out August 1. After securing the 90 day Non O Thai Child visa where do I get the extension? Out of country at same embassy I got the 90 day or at my local Sa Kaeo Thai immigration office?

Is the correct time to get the extension mid July?

Does anyone have the picture graph showing the process?

Thank you so much for your help!

I'm doing my first Non-O extension and have a couple of questions/reminders (memory loss since the first time around).

1. Do the copies need to be in color, such as passport, bank book, etc.?

1. I seem to recall that they required one or more forms in duplicate.

I am following this template.
