Hi. I'm currently in the UK but I have a Thai bank account which I opened on a previous trip. Hopefully within the next 6 months I'm looking to return to Thailand on visa exempt basis, do all the necessary paperwork to get married and then apply for a marriage visa in Thailand. What I'm trying to figure out is a back up plan if I run into any difficulties with the bank account. Mainly because I'm conscious that this time I would only have the visa exempt stamp in my passport. If the account is open and active (which I believe it is) then there shouldn't be a problem, I guess. But if there was, what are my options as I would not have an address to return to the UK at that point. Is it possible to travel to say Laos or Vietnam and obtain a non O visa to re-enter Thailand from there, and then use that non O to open a new bank account in Thailand? If this is an option, then what bank evidence could I use in Laos/Vietnam - as I guess I would only have my UK bank account. Would this work? Probably overthinking all of this but I have learnt in Thailand to always look at the 'what ifs'. Many thanks

With my first non o visa extension next week how soon is it I can dip below the 400k thb as I wasn’t going to top it up till early next year ?

I'm changing an extension for retirement to an extension for marriage but I want to change to another bank. I still have the 400000 for the retirement requirements and the new bank has had the funds in for over a year. Will I have to provide statements from both accounts or just get the old passbook updated & copied?

Hi all

Can anyone recommend a visa Agent in Kalasin.

I want to get a Certificate of Residency from immigration. I have been told if you apply for it yourself it can take 3 weeks to arrive, we’re as an agent can get one in 2-3 days. Thanks.

I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm looking for health insurance for my partner and me. We are looking to stay long-term. However, we want to go to an actual office and talk to someone who can explain how the health insurances work here. I don't want to do it online. I want face to face discussion. Can anyone recommend an office to go to? I'm in the Bagna area but we are willing to travel a bit.

French citizen in Thailand needs to apply for DTV soon. Remote worker. Where would be the best place to apply? If you provide a location, let me know also the delays.

Thanks.

hello, what are the prices of agents in pattaya for DTV full package if a person is already in Pattaya?

Hello everyone 🙂

When applying for a Non O Visa based on marriage online via an e-visa for proof of relationship

(a) Do you use the Kor 2 the updated non colorful marriage certificate

or

(b) Or do you use the Kor 3 the original brightly colored marriage certificate?

Also it appears you can only upload on side of a page.

Thanks in advance 🙏

I have recently been speaking to some fallangs who are saying that as well as having the money in the bank 3 months before your visa renewal the money has to be in the bank for 3 months after as well. Is this correct?

I’ve always extended my retirement visa with the minimum 65k baht monthly deposit method. However, I’ve had in excess of 800,000 baht in a deposit account in my name only for around eighteen months. Would there be a problem if I wanted to chance to the banked money method for my next extension. Would I have to get the full twelve months statement from my Bangkok Bang account.
