I made two posts about obtaining an O-visa and extention and in both I was shot down by a number of people whilst detailing my lived experiences. Thought I was being helpful telling the truth.

Well today I have my year extension and reentry permit. No serious issues and no expensive agents to circumnavigate or cheat the system .

Wish anyone doing the same well, do not be discourage.

I will however give you two pieces of advise:

1. Make sure any photo copies you present are clear

2. Make sure the last entry in your bank book is either a deposit, preferred or withdrawal on the day you submit it with the letter from the bank.

Currently staying in the Chatachuk area of Bkk, Canadian on a visa exemption, wondering what immigration office I go to to extend for 30 days! Tia

I thought I was applying for a 90 day evisa when I chose vacation as a reason for travel. What I got was 60 days when I arrived. How long before my 60 days are up can I apply for 30 day extension? USA citizen not on visa upon arrival but issued evisa online. Thanks in advance.

does anyone know if the chiang mai central festival immigration office handle 90-day reporting? or do I need to go to the immigration office near the airport?

thanks

how is extention of DTV visa after your first 6 months in the country? I've heard they make it hard on you, better leave Thailand and come back a few days later. What's the current status on this? Thanks 🙏

My local Immigration (Nakhon Pathom) refuses to issue me a Certificate of Residency on a DTV. For those who have been able to get one, can you please share which provincial immigration office was able to issue one, and what documents were needed? Thanks!

Arrived in January and planning on doing a 90 day report next month and wondering if I go there early enough could I also get a 180 day DTV extension? Are they even done at the same place? Hopefully its all within the same area where you get tourist visa extensions.

Dears,

How early can I renew my Thai retirement Visa. (I am getting different information!?). Thanks a lot very appreciated

Went to two different Immigration offices in Phuket this week hoping to get some information about renewing in-country. Neither of them had any idea about cost or requirements 🙃.

Edit: *big apology to the semantic sticklers*

I (obviously) meant "extension" not "renewal." Yes words have meanings. They also get jumbled around in my brain and probably shouldn't make you so frustrated.

Has anyone successfully changed the way they qualify for a retirement extension, from the money in the bank to monthly income, at the Jomtien office? And before anyone asks, yes I have maintained the proper amount in the bank for a year, as well as transferred in the 65,000 each month for a year.
