Dear brains trust,

I have recently entered Thailand on an Non Imm multi-entry O-X visa. Bank account and drivers license all done, working on the yellow book currently. I would like to confirm the following:

1. When I travel out of the country for short business trips, I will not need a re-entry permit as my visa is a multi-entry visa....correct?

2. The usual 90 days in-county reporting applies?

3. I am required to report to immigration for a 1 year visa review (funds in account etc).

4. Bank balance required after the first year report to immigration?

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards, John

They specifically ask about the need for a re-entry permit during short business trips, the 90-day in-country reporting rule, the requirement for an annual visa review, and the bank balance needed for after the first-year report to immigration. Community responses provide mixed insights regarding these requirements.

I went in after 1 year to do annual report on OX visa. But phuket immigration told me not necessary because I leave the country so if I leave the country not necessary to report

Not correct. Always have to do a TDAC regardless of visa status or length of time out of the kingdom

TDAC has nothing to do with visas.

lol no its not. Maybe you need to learn to read before commenting. A re-entry permit is not a TDAC. TDAC has nothing to do with visa and re-entry permits

I'm fairly certain you don't have to check-in at one year.
@Wayne ********
I think you were someone who used to have an OX right? I might be remembering wrong though

@Brandon ***********
Correct i have OX. It's Multiple entry so no re-entry permit required and I have not had to check in after 1st or 2nd year. I have Always had my insurance policy with me incase they ask, which they never have. 5 year is when you go for the 2nd 5 years and they will check financial etc to make sure you conform to the requirements.

Are you actually planning on going for the 2nd 5 year? I read a report from someone who went to immigration with everything that should be required, including the 3 million in a Thai bank account, and they were flat out refused by immigration and told it's not possible.

I believe Tod Daniels said most people abandon the 2nd 5 years and go and get a new non-OX visa.

hopefully that same officer is there in 5 years. So much can and does change in Thailand

@Brandon ***********
Yes, that's correct. I use the Buriram Immigration office. Regards, John

@John ***************
Which immigration officer? The one at your local office that you would be doing the extension with?

@Brandon ***********
I checked the 2nd 5 year renewal with the immigration officer, no problems if you have maintained your required bank balance and Thailand based medical insurance. I realise alot can change in 5 years with regard to visa rules so I will remain optimistic but vigilant 😁

I will probably go the marriage visa or just the Non O as I will be retired fully when my first 5 years is up.
