it doesnt matter what size your print your DTV : A4 or compact passport size like me 😆. when it printed, it would help the immigratipn staff to recognize and check into the system. Some people dont print it out also no problem. As long as you got your DTV and welcome to Thailand, buddy! 😍🇹🇭

How often can you apply for a 3 month O visa during the course of a year? This visa is designated single entry so would it automatically be cancelled on leaving the country after less than 3 months?

For example, apply in London for the O visa, exit Thailand after a 2 month stay, then apply in London for a second O visa shortly after return to London. Many thanks for your advice,

Peter

Can anyone recommend an immigration office close to Ekkamai or one without a terrible wait also which time is better to go ?

I am currently holding a retirement visa in Thailand, valid until March next year. However, when I traveled outside of Thailand last month, I did not obtain a re-entry permit before leaving. (Yes I totally forgot) Upon my return at airport, I was granted a 60-day tourist visa instead.

At the airport, the immigration officer informed me that I could resolve this matter at the immigration office. A week after my return, I visited the immigration office in Bangkok to resolve this. There, the officer explained that my retirement visa could be validated, but my landlord would need to update my residential status in the system.

When I contacted my landlord, she informed me that this update can only be made within 24 hours of my arrival. Since more than 24 hours had passed, she is unable to update it now, as entering false information would be an offense. Without this update in the system, immigration is unable to proceed further.

Therefore, I am kindly seeking your guidance on what I should do next. Does this mean that once my 60-day tourist visa expires, I will need to leave Thailand? Or is there a way to reapply or convert to a new retirement visa within Thailand without having to leave the country? And what if I stay over and let's say I travel in December and apply for re-entry b4 I go, will I get away with it.

Thank you very much for your time, understanding, and assistance with this matter.

Hello everyone, a silly question here but when one is advised to 'ask directly to your local IO', in my case Chaengwatthana. Where do you go and ask your questions directly?

I often find the front desk at the entry pretty much clueless and/or with a poor understanding.

Do I need to ask and probably disturb the officers at the counters inside, where people has a queue number already? Or is it there any useful information area in the building?

Thank you for your help.

Hi, my son is on an ED visa and I'm on a guardian visa with NO re-entry permit. Our visa expires December. We are leaving the country for good on Saturday. Do I need to go to immigration to cancel our visas or will they cancel automatically when we leave on Saturday?

My wife and I have a Non-O Retired Visa that has to be extended February 26, 2026.

I have two questions. How long in advance before February 26, can we go to the Immigration?

Regarding the documents, for example: Income letter, proof of marriage and proof of retirement pension, how old can the documents be so the Immigration accept them? 30, 60 or 90 days?

We are going to the Immigration in Hua Hin.

90 day report on line TM47.

I have applied twice, once 13 days early and second time 8 days early. Both have been rejected because ' application must be 15 days before notice date' .... duh ??? whats happening here?

Hello. Is it possible to get a visa extension for DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) at Samut Prakan Immigration or other ? I am planning to extend my visa this week .
