How can I get a Non-O A criminal background check while living in BKK? I am from America... and, I assume I can do the medical verification here also?
TLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a Non-O A visa as an American expat in Bangkok, you will need a criminal background check and medical verification. It's important to note that the Non-O A visa cannot be obtained within Thailand and must be acquired from a Thai consulate in your home country, which requires a background check and a medical certificate. However, if you are applying for a 90-day Non-O visa followed by an extension, you can use an income affidavit from your embassy instead of a background check, provided you meet the financial requirements. Generally, you will need to demonstrate financial stability with a bank statement or income proof when applying in Thailand.
