TLDR : Answer Summary
The question pertains to the acceptance of phone screenshots of administrative paperwork when applying for a Thai visa, specifically an 'o to a' visa, which was clarified as potentially being a Non-O visa. The community responded with mixed opinions, some suggesting that screenshots might be accepted while others firmly stated that originals are necessary for visa applications. Overall, there seems to be confusion regarding the visa type and clarity on documentation requirements.

You should edit your post. It makes no sense.

For a non o visa , 90 days , which you apply for online you can use phone screen shots ( I did that as well )

Do you mean you currently have a Non-O visa and wish to apply for a 12 month extension? If so you absolutely can not use screen shots.

I think they are, but if not they will ask for the original version. If you edit the screenshot I doubt they could tell the difference anyway.

Your post makes no sense.

Can you clarify which visa you are applying for. There's no "o to a" visa
