Questions regarding non o thai spouse yearly extension at Changwatanna office.

Last time I collected extension after consideration period, proof of 400k in bank wasn't required, is this still correct?

Can letter from Bank showing balance and statement bè processed the day before applying? I know bankbook must be updated same day.

Have switched to condo lease and have tm30 from owner. Does wife still need tabien bahn shown + copy? Don't live there now. And is original lease need to be shown or just copy?

Thanks in advance.

Reporting latest experience. Yesterday transferred the monthly 65000 baht from my Australian bank account via Wise (Funds for longstay in Thailand) to my Bangkok Bank account. Transfer initiated at 9:40am, funds arrived in Bangkok Bank account sometime between 12:30 and 12:50pm correctly noted on the account as an international transfer, for immigration purposes. Transferred funds for rent and internet at around 1:30pm. Used QR Promptpay scan four times between 4:00pm and 8:00pm.

At 2:30pm ordered 12-month statement from bank app (for immigration purposes this coming week), which arrived via email at 4:30pm.

I'm on non-O retirement extension, BB customer for eight years.

Absolutely no problems, account not frozen or suspended.

Bangkok Bank and Wise not quite the ogres which some are suggesting!

Hey all working with Baan Thai for a retirement O stateside. Doing the 3 month initial visa. They’ve asked that I provide my U.S. bank statements for the past 3 months showing 80,000 baht balance. I know this is a requirement once I get a bank account in Thailand. Has anyone had the request to show the same from a U.S. bank?

Hello,

I would appreciate anyone sharing their experience working with the THAI VISA CENTER to obtain a non-o visa. I am presently in Thailand on my 30 day tourist extension. I do not want to fly all the way back to my home country (USA), but would be happy to fly to any S.E. Asia location that has a Thai embassy that will allow me to apply for a non-o. Thank you for any thoughts you care to share.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently in Chiang Mai and have two months left on my Non-O retirement visa. Two months ago, I moved to a new condo, and my landlord provided me with a new TM30 already.

Do I need to take any action regarding my visa due to this change of address? My 90-day report is also due next week, and I'm wondering if not reporting my change of address before my 90-day reporting or Non-O renewal will cause any issues with the Chiang Mai office.

Thank you very much for your input!

One Step Closer To Our Thai Dream. Non O Visa has been accepted..Time for the next step!!!! Bank account and sim to our name. Suggestions?

Looking for recent experience -- we were just unable to renew my husband's visa because he only had one passport page left (US passport), and apparently that page is reserved for "special endoremsements." The US consulate's website says (in many places) that they will not add pages and the only solution is to renew his passport by sending it to the embassy in Bangkok, which takes 4-6 weeks. His visa expires in 2.5 weeks. Has anyone successfully gotten an emergency passport or extra pages added in this situation (recently)?

Good morning, so in 2 months and 3 weeks I am going to apply for the retirement visa non-o in Jomtien as I will reach 50 yo.

I have the 800k sent by international transfer that have been sitting for years in my Bangkok bank account.

My first question is what needs to be done with the bank in advance. I am going to update the bankbook at the machine every months from now.

Do I have to get a letter certifying the funds have been there for a while with the bank as well ? Should I wait the day after I am 50 yo to ask for this letter?

Any other administrative stuff that need to be done long before applying for the visa. Thanks

Hi. I am seeing conflicting information about the following so seeking some advice.

I currently in Thailand on an ED visa but studies are almost complete. There will be about two weeks left on the ED Visa. I am returning the UK before that ED Visa expires and intend to apply for a non-o visa based on being over 50 when I am back in the UK.

My question is, do I need to ask immigration to cancel the last two weeks of the ED visa before I leave or is it effectively cancelled as soon as I pass through immigration at the airport?

I don’t want to risk getting rejected for the new non-o visa by already having a “valid visa” in my passport.

Thanks.
