I think it is been asked before, but I not have seen or read it.

I got the stamp, under considerationin my passport.

How long generally, does it take to get the approval?

Waiting for 2 weeks now....

I'm not trying to do an extension or border bounce. My plan has always been to go from Bangkok over to Siem Reap and stay there for a month.

I have read several posts recently about the possibilty and/or need to provide 'proof of departure' out of Thailand, either to an air carrier heading towards Thailand or to the customs and immigration agents upon entry into the country.

There have been mentions of booking a 'real', cheap, one-way ticket out of the country or using the Onward Ticket app. One response mentioned that a bus doesn't count because it only takes you to the border. Since I am leaving the day after Christmas, cheap airfare wasn't an option.

Does my full-transit one-way Giant Ibis ticket from Bangkok to Siem Reap work as proof? I'm spending a month there in Cambodia before coming back to Bangkok for 6 weeks then on to Vietnam for three months.

Regarding a residency certificate I understand that the first 90 day report must have been completed, before applying. Yet I read on various expat posts that immigration are accepting just the TM30, passport, visa, etc, without the TM47. Is this now the case and is it written somewhere official?

I submitted an evisa non immigrant O that I thought was good for 6 months but it was approved for only 60 days. Can this be extended? It cost 80 usd. I'm not sure if there was any advantage over the 60 day visa free that can be extended 30 days for a 90 day stay. Did I waste 80 dollars?

Hello

Quick question!

Is there any benefits or advantages on apply for the 90 day O visa from within Canada before heading to Thailand or is it exactly the same process as just arriving on a regular visa and doing it.

I would also be looking to extend it to a one year from within thailand.

Hello,

This is kind of urgent so would appreciate your advice!

I am a Brit and am due to from London to Bangkok on Wednesday 14 Oct and am scheduled to fly back 16 January.

I have just gone in to check in for my Eva Air flight, but it won't let me proceed without uploading travel documents and is indicating I needing a paper travel visa to enter the country.

I was under the impression from previous research that, as a UK citizen, I could enter Thailand and apply for a visa there, which I could then apply to extend later while in the country, or leave and do a visa run.

This situation is somewhat urgent and unexpected , so I would really appreciate any advice on what to do.

If necessary, I would be happy to get an e-visa in advance but is this possible within 48 hours?

Many thanks in advance!

- UPDATE -

Thank you all so much for your helpful replies - I truly appreciate it. I was able to check in and now I will keep my fingers crossed at the airport, but your messages have been very reassuring to someone who was in a panic. Thank you again! 💙

I’m an Irish male 67, with a non immigration O single entry (with “retired” remark) eVisa obtained from Thai London embassy (they also issue for citizens of the Republic of Ireland in recent years). Background; I have a long term Thai gf (>18 years together.. we are not married. I stay at her house in Korat).

A couple of questions relating to an upcoming trip in Nov:

1. Can I extend this visa at an internal immigration centre or do a border run with ease and return for 30 days as a tourist (no visa needed?) just prior to the evisa expiring?

2. Following that extension or return in Point 1, I need to go to Australia for a few weeks.

3. What are my options to return to Thailand again for another ca. 55-60 days before returning home to Ireland next April/May? E.g. Apply for another 90 days eVisa whilst in Australia (as if I was applying online from Ireland) OR enter again as a tourist (no visa needed?) for 30 days and extend it internally for another 30 days.

I guess I’m wondering are there any limits to the number of tourist entries and / or extensions one can get per entry in a single calendar year that could trip me up?

I would effectively be seeking to stay ~90 days, then ~ 30 days, and then on return from Australia another ~60 days before finally returning home to Ireland.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I am confused about when to file a TM30. I have a mulri-entry Non-O retirement visa. I have filed my first 90-day report.

1. I went to Bangkok for an overnight in a hotel. Does the hotel file a TM30? Do I need to file a TM30 when I return home to Pattaya?

2. I go to Singapore for a week. When I return, my 90-day reporting period is reset, and I must file a TM30?

Thanks for your serious, helpful response!

Hi! I am currently a new member in this group. I am about to get Non-B visa to work in Thailand Via eVisa

Can anyone tell me what is document indicating current location?

I am going back to Immigration on later this month to get my 1 year extension of stay.

So I am in the "Under Consideration" stage of it all.

But before this I have been requested to be a travel-buddy for someone who has never flown before before I get my stamp.

It would be a 1-2 day thing and I would be back in good time before I am supposed to go to Immigration to get my finalized stamp.

Would this be a problem?
