Hello everybody ☺️

i will be entering through BKK on my DTV for the first time in a couple of days.

is the procedure basically smooth, or do i need to get any documents/cash ready?

did anyone do it recently?

Can someone tell me if this is right. I went to immigration today to do my 90 day check in. This would be my first time checking in.I had the receipt and the rental agreement but the officer said that I needed the ID of the owner the house book and their phone number is this correct? 

Chiang Mai - both entered on Non O - 90 days based on retirement over 50. We are heading to the Canadian Consulate on Monday for income verification then going to immigration. Husband is applying for extension based on retirement over 50. I am going to be applying as a "trailing spouse". Not 100% clear on the terminology, if this would also be considered a retirement "extension". We know what documents he needs but aren't sure what I need to bring? I believe we can apply at the same time so would have the relevant documents for his extension.

I didnt find this question here before, so I will open the topic:

Obtaining a tourist visa to get married in thailand, with a thai spouse. Is there any kind of documentation one could bring to show to the IO at the airport to support the claim that one is coming to marry his wife? Lets say if they pull you aside for questioning.

My pension is paid from the UK into my Kasikorn bank account but does not show up as a foreign transaction. Kasikorn advise me that to get proof of such I need a credit advice. If I want this to cover the last 12 months (to satisfy immigration) I must arrange it with the credit adviser in my local branch.

The process will take "around" 5 working days and cost 500 baht. I am not sure whether this is instead of or in addition to the 100 baht letter I have been getting every year up to now. Passport and bank book needed to get credit advice.

Wish me luck!

I have a retirement Visa. I have to report at Samui this month for the 1st time. What should I bring besides my passport? Any favorable days to visit immigration? Any fees?

Thanks 🙏

Following situation. My friend, french citizen living in Bangkok and Shanghai, has a retirement extension ( with re entry permit ) He just got his new passport from the French consulate in Shanghai, tough his old one with the extension inside was invalidated. He has the letter from the embassy but it is in Chinese. He has a stamp in the passport stating that this passport replaces the previous one, but it is in French. Any advice?
