If you are over 50 and come to Thailand with a 45 day visa exemption can I apply for a non-O Visa at immigration in Phuket?

I heard you need to apply for a non-O visa at a Thai consulate outside Thailand.

The non-O Visa is for 90 days and can than be stamped for 1 year extension retirement. Do you need for that a medical certificate?
Answer summary
The user inquired whether they can apply for a Non-O Visa at immigration in Phuket after entering Thailand with a 45-day visa exemption. A comment clarified that one can apply for the 90-day Non-O Visa at most immigration offices in Thailand, including Phuket, as long as they meet the requirements. Importantly, no medical certificate is required for this visa application, though specific guidelines must be adhered to, such as having a minimum of 21 days remaining on their current entry stamp.

this is the website of the Phuket Immigration Volunteers and here's the link to what you need to do to get the 90 day Non-O visa from that immigration office

You heard wrong, You can apply for a 90 day Non-O visa at most immigration offices as long as you meet the requirements and as long as you meet the proof of funds

There is no medical certificate required to get the in country 90 day Non-O visa or the year extension after that (except at Samui I believe ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

The important thing is that you have enough time left on your entry stamp to apply and wait out the under review period after you pay the 2000baht for the 90 day Non-O visa As it says on the link I jumped you

In Phuket they require a minimum of 21 days left on the current entry permission stamp to process the Non-O application.

thank you Tod for this answer. It seems to be quite easier to do it at immigration than to submit for a non-O Visa at the Thai embassy in my country.
