Questions Regarding 1-Year Extension for Non-O Retirement Visa: 🙏🙏

1. Is it mandatory to provide proof of 800,000 THB being transferred from abroad, or is it sufficient to have the 800,000 THB seasoned in a Thai bank account for at least two months before applying for the extension?

2. Is there a processing or waiting period for the visa extension application? If yes, how long does it typically take?

3. Am I allowed to leave Thailand during the consideration period for the visa extension?

Hi All,

I want to apply for 30 day extension beyond my first 60 days here. I need to have my next host file a TM30 for me so I can get my extension approved by immigration office.

However, if the host does not file it for me, can I just bring proof of domicile (receipt with info) to the immigration office or does the host actually have to tile the form online for them to see it and approve me when I come in?

Thank you

I have been in Thailand for 90 days. I arrived in Thailand on November 25, 2024. I had not applied for a visa, but was granted a stay of 60 days. I have also not booked a return trip. On January 27, 2025, I was granted a 30-day extension. On February 25, 2025, I checked out of Thailand in Nong Khai and entered Laos. I plan to stay there for a week before returning to Thailand.

I read on the Thai-E Visa Office website that I do not need to apply for a visa if I am only going to stay for 60 days. But I have to fill out some forms online. This website is somewhat confusing. The form asks me to define which visa I am applying for. Which conflicts with - not needing a visa. Has anyone done this "gymnastics" and can guide me? And... do I have to book a trip out?

I am American trying to get O-A visa. I am getting grief about the medical form I submitted. The embassy staff in Washinton are asking for a stamp with proof of the doctor office.

I requested this from my doctor, but they do not have any type of stamp. Everything is electronic. My doctor was surprised to fill out a paper form.

I attached his business card to the form and it is not being accepted either.

Any advice? And be respectful please.

Hello. Im going to apply for DTV outside of my home country U.S. as freelancer and need guidance on portfolio and other proof of business. I've read mixed reviews in this community about using agencies. Anyone have experience with Baan Thai Immigration Solutions? Recommendation?
