TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion highlights the recent experiences of a user applying for an OA visa at the Korat Immigration office. Key points include the need for an up-to-date immigration checklist, additional requirements such as a copy of the TM 30 form, and necessary bank documentation for expatriates who do not meet the 80,000 baht requirement or whose embassies do not verify pensions. Important details also mention the importance of 12-month bank statements, certifications from banks, and clarifications about the non-immigrant O-A visa.

Okay, what is stamped inside your passport, it can not be the Non Immigrant O-A visa as that visa is only available from a Thai Embassy in your home country
