On 6 June 2024 the IO here in Chiang Mai granted me an extension of stay based on the Non - O over 50 (retirement) visa using the international bank transfer of 800,000 baht. The expiry date ends on July 2 2025 (in effect 13 months according to the stamps in my passport).
The next extension of stay will be applied for and based on the monthly income method of 65,000 baht minimum international bank transfer every month for 12 months.
Hi, I am a little confused regarding my next 90 day report this time as I recently received my new extension of stay based on Non B visa. Does the 90 days start from 7th April 2025 when I returned to Thailand after leaving the country or from the date of my new extension of stay 14th May 2025. I don’t want to miss it so thought I should double check. And should it be done in person this time as I previously did it online with no issues but I hadn’t left the country beforehand, so am I right in thinking as I left in April my next one has to be in person please? Thank you.
I have my DTV visa since 1 April 2025. I travelled to Ho Chi Minh on 30 April 2025, and returned to Bangkok on 3 May 2025. The immigration officer never enquired about my DTV visa and it only took one minute to obtain my 180-day stamp.
Hello quick question about the 90 day report. Came in on a 60 day exemption, just converted to a 90 day non o visa at chaeng wattana on Friday. Entered Thailand about 85 days ago. From my past experiences they do the 90 days along with the issuing of the visa, but last Friday was the earthquake day. Not sure if I still need to do it or only need to start doing the 90 day report 90 days after the first visa is issued.
Hello, I had the DTV 1 month ago now, I want my girlfriend to also have the DTV (we are not married), we have children together. Is it possible to do your DTV from Thailand?
UPDATE: Khon Kaen don't do the 60 days extension for visiting Thai wife anymore either. It's been discontinued.
Question: 4-5 months ago they stopped offering 60 days extension based on marriage in Udon Thani (new policy). So can only do 60+30 instead of 60+30+60. I was able to do 30+30+60 in Khon Kaen prior to that for years (when 30 days visa exempt was a thing). I still have an address I can use for Khon Kaen so I would like to try to do the 60 days extension there. But I'm 2 hours away so would like to confirm first that it's indeed possible.
Did anyone here did it recently after the initial 60 days visa exempt + 30 days extension? Please only answer if you actually know the answer from having done it. I'm not talking about 90 days + 60 days, but what use to be 30+30+60, now 60+30+60, which was possible in Udon Thani for a few months after the change to 60 days visa exempt, but not anymore. So I don't know if it made the round in Isan or if it's only in Udon Thani that the policy changed.
Hello, I'm German and I'm staying in Thailand as a tourist for another week. They want that. 2 weeks I instructed an agency to apply for a DTV visa for me. Can there be problems because I'm not in Germany?

Hallo ich bin Deutscher und befinde mich noch eine Woche als Tourist in Thailand . Vor ca. 2 Wochen beauftragte ich eine Agentur für mich ein DTV Visum zu beantragen. Kann es Probleme geben, weil ich nicht in Deutschland bin?
