Hello all. Thanks for accepting me in to this group. Has anyone obtained a one year retirement visa and if so, what is the first step. Thx in advance. Ann

My wife and I have non-Immigrant O retirement visas that will renew on 29 January. We plan to renew them this week, as they can be renewed up to 45 days in advance.

We also plan to get multiple re-entry permits at the same time. My question is this: I plan to leave Thailand on 7 January. Will the new re-entry permits cover us, or will they only take effect after the visa renewal is official?

Maybe I'm being ridiculous worrying about it (that's what my wife says), but I'd like to be sure.

Hi can anyone help. I am currently on a Non-immigrant O Visa issued from UK Thai Embassy. I am applying to change to a 1 year Married Visa. TM7 Form attached is part of the application. The section at the bottom asks...." I hereby apply for extension period of temporary stay in the Kingdom for.........days"

Question - is 90 or 365 days I enter here, assume it's 90?

Thanks

Hello! Just arrived in BKK. Need to open a bank account to deposit funds to convert visa to Non-immigrant O visa. Here with my daughter holding ED visa. When do I need to start my application to extend to a year visa? Should I be thinking of hiring an visa agent? Thank you 🙏

Hi :) I have a Non-Immigrant O visa (marriage 90 days), I know I can apply for a 1-year visa after 45 days. does anyone know the minimum, e.g. is 15 days still enough or does it have to be at least 30 days? Thx for your help

Can I renew my non immigration O visa 2 months before it expires?

Can the 800.000 thb for the renewal be in a term deposit account in a Thai bank?

Thanking you.

For a Non Imm O single entry do I need proof of exiting ?

Hello! How does a Non-Immigrant O visa work? I’m a Thai National (Dual Citizenship with US) who is married to a US Citizen. We are planning on moving to Thailand next February.

He’s applying for the visa while we are still here since the Thai Visa website says to apply at least 15 days before departure date.

My question is what are the steps we need to take when we arrive?

I’m just learning how Thai systems work since I grew up in the states.

Thank you ka 🙏🏼

Hi, just looking for an up to date confirmation.

Currently on the last (extra-13-15th month) 90 days entry until 8 Feb 2025 of a one-year Multiple Entry Non-Imm 'O' visa obtained from Savannakhet .

Had to apply for a new passport as existing passport with above stamp expires in June 2025 (less than 6 months validity to use it for an entry after 8 Feb 2025 and not enough pages left). Received new passport today.

Do I need to go to my local Immigration office to transfer the entry stamp to 8 Feb 2025 to my new passport, or can I just exit Thailand with both old and new passports on or around 8 Feb 2025? Also, I would hope to be returning a few days later. Will I again need both passports, or just the new one?

Thanks for your assistance.

LF recommendations / suggestions:

I am married to a Thai citizen. I have a 7 year old daughter from previous failed relationship who is currently residing in the PH.

Currently I am in Thailand under Non-Immigrant O visa and planning to go back to Philippine and bring my kid to Thailand for good.

Can you suggest to me what visa should I use aside from the Student visa? (the student visa was recommended by the Royal Thai Embassy)

>> I have a problem with student visa. I cannot get the requirements from the Sarasas school because the pre-requirement is that my kid should be able to write and read in Thai language. Therefore, I want to bring her first to Thailand and learn everything once she arrives here and enroll her to school once she is capable to read and write in Thai.

If I find a job before I go back to PH and get a working visa, would that help and can I apply for my kid the non-immigrant dependent O visa?

Anyone? Please enlighten me. I feel frustrated. Thus, inter-country adoptation will take 4 years of processing also 😭 based from google.
