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

I am in Thailand on a 60 day visa exemption, but I'd like to extend it to 90 days.

I'd rather do things early than late, so I was planning to go within the week. However, ChatGPT (which is not always reliable) says to wait a bit as Bangkok immigration is very strict.

Is this true? Should I wait till January to extend, or just do it now? I thought it would be best to ask real people.

Also, it has to be done in person, right? I haven't found an online option.

I am an American citizen that holds a retirement visa in Thailand. My visa was issued from one of the immigration offices in Chiang Mai.

Do I have to renew it from this same office in CM or can I renew from another office?

I ask because my wife and I would like to visit some of the beaches around the time I will need to renew.

Thanks all!

Hello everyone! I have a question regarding the DTV visa and TM30 registration. If my rental contract states that the lease starts on a certain date and ends on a later date (for example, a full year), should I indicate the end date of the lease in the TM30 form as well? Or is it better to leave the checkout date open-ended? I’m concerned about potential issues with immigration if the visa validity period doesn’t match the lease end date.

Has anyone experienced this before? What approach did you take, and did it cause any issues with immigration? I’d appreciate any insights or advice on how to handle this situation.

Thank you!

I entered Thailand with a non 0 Immigration marriage visa. I need an extension for at least 1 month.

Before I had an rented apartment so I needed a copy of the owners blue book and id from the owner and a lease contract.

If I stayed in a hotel wat do I need instead of those papers.

Looking for advise

Hopefully moving permanently to Thailand asap, I have no Thai address, no Thai bank account, I qualify for retirement visa and the funds are no problem. Which is the best way to achieve this.

This is genuine cry for help so please genuine replies.

Thanks in advance

looking for advise here. Perhaps others have some experience on this. My wife is Thai and I had her come to the USA under the K1 Visa. Now we plan to travel back to Thailand and live there moving forward. This means I will be under an Non-O visa when I travel back. I am getting all documents in the USA to make this a smooth transition. From a documentation stand point is there any thing I should look out for. I plan on bringing over several authenticated copies of the marriage certificate from the The Thai Embassy in USA to Thailand.

When renewing the Visa on yearly basis what should I expect?

It looks like exit and re-enter on this Visa is permitted. What does that process look like?

Do I need to have a living location such as a condo locked in prior to landing? Is a hotel sufficient?

When you arrive in Thailand with a non O visa, how long does it take to change it to a retirement visa

The question might be silly and out of place but I thought Dtv folk would get it. when looking for an apartment is okay to stay in a Airbnb or will it jeopardize my Dtv visa?

I arrived in Thailand about 1 month ago on a 60 day visa exemption stamp. I stayed for 30 days in an Airbnb apartment, and my landlord didn't file a TM30 form. For the next 30 days I will stay in another condo where the landlord is going to file a TM30 form. If I go to the Jomtien immigration office to extend my stay will I be fined 1600 baht for not having a registration at the first place I stayed? Thanks.
