Thailand Visa NON-O Visa Retirement Visa Visa Extension Immigration Process Expats in Thailand Phuket Immigration

ORIGINAL POSTER

In a world of negativity, here's something positive.

After months and months of planning it all came together.

Planning our move to Thailand.

Obtaining our 90 day non-o retirement and trailing spouse visas.

Today we completed our extensions and are stamped in for a year. Both of us!

It was an interesting process and they asked for odd things, like they wanted my entire bank book copied since 2020. 

So we spent half a day making copies of stuff and giving them to Phuket Immigration!

But it is done thanks too great advice and a little patience.

Listen to the admins and enjoy the ride!

Thanks!

Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳

I know how stressful and time consuming but you guys did it.

I think the key is to remain calm, polite and just do the things that are requested or required.

Welcome to Thailand.

It's a great life

Congrats (y) Glad that it worked out, glad you entered into the endeavor with patience and a good attitude.

The research and hard work you put into it paid off, Now you both have your year extensions (y)

Pay attention to when your 90 day report is due, that's all that's left for you to do the rest of the year 🙂
