ORIGINAL POSTER

Filling in the online eVisa for O visa.

After uploading passport, photo, ID....came to the placethat I can not skip nor I have an idea why is it asking me. I clicked  LTR (Long Term Resident) Visa (P) at the beginning.

Anyone knows how to skip that? Or do it all over again with different visa type? Edit: over again, as "Non Immigrant Visa".

Yeah, it can not be changed, it says "The first step cannot be edited because it may affect the next step information."

4 . Letter of qualification endorsement issued from the Thailand Board of Investment (BOI) (valid for only 60 days since the date of issue). The applicant can apply for the letter of qualification endorsement via https://visa.boi.go.th.

TLDR : Answer Summary

A user is struggling with the online eVisa application for a Non-O visa after mistakenly selecting the LTR (Long Term Resident) Visa option. They seek guidance on how to either skip or redo the application process, given that the system does not allow edits once the initial choice is made. Users in the comments clarify that to apply for a Non-O retirement visa, the correct option must be selected from the start and share their own experiences with the application process, including challenges faced with documentation and timing.

It took me 4 hours, not because Thais were slow, Thai Immigration requested me, additionally, to attach my airline ticket (not saying both ways). I could not as my attempts to buy a ticket to BKK were rejected payments.

My bank fixed it. They are now looking into my "O" application. The point is, whoever is going that way, leave aside a day, at least half a day for that effort.

The non-O visa is not an LTR visa. You chose LTR visa. If you want to apply for a non-O retirement visa you must choose that option.
