Looking for help please. I’m applying online for a 30 day extension (TM30) and struggling to login to the immigration portal.

Just been applying for an Extension of Stay (based on Retirement) and hit an issue that I think could impact a lot of people.

I use the 65k per month route, and I use Wise for the transfers from UK to Thailand, and I have never had any issues previously. However, the IO told me that I had failed to make the required transfers, and so refused my application. I always transfer well above the 65k (I usually transfer between 150k and 230k per month). On closer examination, it turned out that all of the transfers prior to and including August were fine. But from Aug 31st onwards, all of my transfers were showing as domestic transfers. After consulting with my bank (SCB) and Wise, it turns out that from Sept 1st they had changed partners and had started using Kasinkorn, who receive the transfers and then remit them onto the required bank, and they do this using 'Channel Code' ENET (Domestic Transfer) whereas the previous partner had remitted them with Channel Code RIS (International). So, for anyone using Wise, I suggest you review your transfers quickly and if you find they are being marked as ENET then you have a problem.

I have flagged the issue to Wise, who initially did not want to know, and just kept directing me to take it up with Kasinkorn, I had to remind them that I have no relationship with Kasinkorn, much less an account, so I would be nothing to them. I reminded Wise that they have the relationship with Kasinkorn, who they have chosen as their partner, and they need to take it up with them as this could affect thousands (maybe tens of thousands) of Wise customers in Thailand. They are now 'looking into it', so I am assuming that the more of you that also contact Wise re this, the more likely they are to fix it.

I assume if you are a Kasinkorn customer using Wise, then it might be OK as I assume they will show such transfers as Inetrnational not Domestic, but be interested in any of you check this and let us know on here.

Meantime, I am looking at a workaround using Wise 'Transfer Receipts' and once I have tried this workaround with Immigration I will update here. One thing I have found though is that the Wise Transfer Receipts seem to change content and format frequently, which is a bit of a concern.

Anyway, thought it best to let you guys out there know about this !

Merry Bloody Xmas ...

USA arrived Bangkok on 90 day non-imm O visa December 4. Over 50 and intend to retire here. Decided to go to open bank account today. Went to Bang kaput mall, 3 different banks. Kbank, krungsri and Bangkok bank. All 3 had different rules and requirements. None allowed me to open account. I supplied passport, 90 day Non-O visa hard , copy, invoice of Condo I’m renting, TM30 and prepared to transfer 800,000 baht. No good. Lease contract needed. Bangkok bank wanted a lease contract of at least 6 months. Ongoing theme was they wanted the visa in the passport stamped as retirement visa. My visa was stamped and in writing on the visa stamp was “Evisa” and “non-O” with the date set for March 3, 2026.

Any suggestions on where or what else I need to do to open an account? I will not be using an illegal agency.

Thanks!

Hey guys, I was approved for my DTV and have already entered the country and have been here about 2 weeks now, but as I’m currently in the proceeds of renting a condo they’ve asked for certain documentation like proof of visa stamp etc, I’ve gone to check and they’ve stamped me for a TR-60, not DTV. Am I going to have to leave the country and re-enter or can I go to the immigration office and get it rectified?

Thanks!

I want to apply for the 90days report with DTV visa for the first time.

My TM30 was issued in Lat Krabang,Bangkok and I would like to know where I can submit it.

Do I need to go to the immigration office in person?

If so, how can I find the office location?

Please advise. Thank you.

Hello, how long is the seasoning for the 400,000 baht to renew non imm o visa (thai wife)..some places i am reading 2 months, others 3 months.

Good evening all, Im going to Thailand for 90 days next year. I've been on the website to extend the 60 days to 90 but having real issues! My question is this, what is the process to get the extension once there, where do you go, what do I need to take and what is the cost. Thanks in anticipation, staying in Jomtiem.

Just renewed my passport to a new one. My retirement visa (Non-IMM O) also need to be extended next month.

Can I do these two tasks at the same time

1. transfer visa to new passport, and

2. extend visa in the new passport

Or I have to do it in two trips to immigration office.

Thanks to advise and share your experience

Hi all, I’m sure this question has been ask before… But here goes..

I stamped in at BKK back in January this year. Stayed 3 weeks. I came back and stamped in at BKK in June, and stayed 2 weeks. I just came 5

weeks ago and stamped in BKK, and my question is after my 60 days (or before) can I go and pay for the 30 day extension at immigration office??

TIA

If I move to another district do I have to go to the same immigration that I first used to re new my visa or can I go anywhere
