I'm on my 3rd extension of an O retirement visa, and am planning on going back to the States for two months. My passport is down to 3 empty pages, the re-entery permit will take up one half of one of those pages. If I get a new passport when home, will I be able to enter whit my old punche through passport? Suggestions for what I should do are appreciated.

Hello !

Can I ask you the experts a question about the financial statement for a Non-OX immigration visa that my wife and I are applying?

When I called the Thai immigration office, we were told that as long as I have 3 miillion THB in my bank account, my wife as my dependent does not need to have another 3 million THB in her bank account.

Now for the application, I have my financial statement ready, but does she also need to submit another copy of the same financial statement?

HI, has a person from Laos obtained a DTV for medical purposes? My friend has the required bank balance in a Thai Bank, as well is also about to undergo Invisilein Dental services for the next year. The Dental office will supply the documents for the procedure and timeline.

My bank asked me if I want the immigration letter confirming the account balance for renewal of my one year visa in Thai language or English. Does it really matter?

I have been told by my employer that I am OK to work remotely in Thailand on a pert time basis 25 hours per week.

This suits me fine as I was going to retire/semi-retire.

Is anyone else doing this from the UK as I would like to know about the double tax arrangements and whether this forms any part of the DTV application.

I want to change my O-A to an O visa. Is it important that I cancel my current visa Extension first or can I just bounce across a border, get a 60 visa exemption stamp and let my current Extension lapse?

Question regarding the required documents for a non-O retirement extension: I've read in some comments that a one-year detailed statement printed from your bank is required. Is this only for the 65k monthly income method, or also needed for the 800k proof of funds?

Last year I provided the original and a copy of all passbook pages, and it was accepted. (800k method, CW office)
