Hi advisors, I think I've given myself a problem, my last visa was short 2 days of my stay in Thailand, so I paid the 2 days overstay. I believe I've just read from the pinned posts I can't get a retirement visa from an o if I have an overstay stamp. I'm in Uk planning to return in November, can any one suggest the best or easiest entry/ visa route for me to convert to eventually apply for a retirement visa. ( New passport )? All suggestions welcome, Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is worried about their eligibility for a retirement visa after a short overstay in Thailand. They ask for advice on the best visa route while in the UK, aiming to convert to a retirement visa when returning to Thailand in November. Comments suggest that while you cannot apply for an in-country visa with an ongoing overstay, having an overstay stamp from a previous entry allows you to apply for a Non-O visa upon return, provided you meet certain conditions.
