I arrived in Hua Hin on the 10th of October and went to Immigration at Bluport to transfer my retirement Visa stamps from my old passport to my recently renewed passport. At the desk I was told to go to the main immigration office just outside of town.

I asked her how long did I have before that had to be done, but unfortunately, I didn’t get a clear answer.

It would be helpful if somebody could give me an answer

Just back from Samut Prakan Immigration Office for TM30.

What an ordeal, an ordinary Thai person (not working in hospitality/hotels/inns) would hardly know how to fill it in. Even if they can figure out, there are copies needed of everything. My Thai wife would not know what is needed. If I were not with her, she could not do it (never done before).

Good that I made copies before going to Thai.

A question: The clerk asked me if I needed anything more. I forgot (still tired from the bumpy flight) about Certificate of Residence. I have to go again to Imm office?

Tomorrow I will by a printer/scnanner and scan the TM30 document so those staying at their wife/girl friend place can use it, at least to know what the form is asking. I got one blank form to scan, will be printable or at least for viewing. Tomorrow.

For those needing information about filing for your 90 day stay notification this is what I found on the Thai Immigration site - I just completed my first filing (did the whole thing online) - very straight forward and took me approximately 10 minutes.

Hi everyone:)

I'm an Italian woman and I'm coming to Thailand with my 75-year-old mother. We've booked a 75-day return ticket with Emirates (from December 15, 2025, to February 28, 2026).

We'd like to know what we need to do for the visa.

How does it work for a 75-day stay?

Thank you in advance.

I arrived in Thailand to find out that the condo I was supposed to be staying at and paid was a scam. I have booked myself into a hotel for a week until I can find another place to stay. So that means my DACT form as the incorrect address. Do I need to fix this? The hotel gave me a TM 30 form. Is there anything I need to do?

Does anyone have experiences with a OA VISA?

After submitting your application, you will receive an email confirming the approval of your OA visa. Will you receive a visa stamp in your passport upon arrival at the airport, valid for one year? Or how exactly does that work??

Thank you for any useful and good information 😊🙏😊
