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 .

Hi all, went to the immigration to apply for my 30 extension with all the paperwork required, when I go there they said that they needed a blue card from my Airbnb host and a photo copy of his passport, has this happen to anyone else ? they did say it’s the new law.

I know that on a uk passport I get 60 days, how do I go about getting an extra 30 days. This is for a trip next year. Thanks

With the visa extension, after 12 months where do you guys choose to boarder cross curious if entry is easier in some places thank others? I really wouldnt want to stay away overnight if possible as I’ll have a cat at home who’s struggles being solo.

If I'm getting a Non-O retirement visa should I book one place for the initial 90 days and wait until I actually get the 1 year extension after my money has been transferred to the Thai bank for 2 months...or book a place for a month or so and look for a permanent place before I get the extension.

I know it's a little risky signing the 1 year lease before I get the actual 1 year extension. Has anyone done this? The Airbnbs are a ripoff and I already know the complex I'd want to live in.

Is it even possible to sign a 1 year lease before I get the 1 year extension? What are the other pros and cons? Thanks!

EDIT: I'm also looking into lease takeovers when I get there, anyone know of any good groups on here for that?

Three extension of stay questions: I enter Thailand with a non O visiting Thai family with the intention of applying for the 12 month extension of stay. I am aware that immigration offices accept applications either 30 or 45 days before the non O expires.

1. If I need to leave Thailand and return (with a re-entry permit), obviously before my non O expires, what is the latest date that I can apply for EOS?

2. If the under consideration period goes beyond the expiry date of my visa, is there a danger of going on overstay?

3. Could leaving Thailand and returning as in question 1 above detrimentally affect the approval of EOS?

TIA

I have non o visa, going next month to extent and open bank ac. Question is how to prove that saving came from oversea. I have problem to transfer the amount in one month after opening ac. Can I bring cash when I enter. ? Thks

Hello folks ...

My current Thai wife visa extension of stay is permitted up to 2 August 2025.

My current US passport expires in May 2026.

Would you confirm that I can apply for my visa extension with my current passport, however, the extension of stay will be permitted up to my passport expiration date in May 2026?

Thank you kindly ...

So don't be an idiot like me. I went to immigration only Koh Phangan to request a visa extension armed with all the documents, only to find out you now need an appointment! I had no idea. I am now going to Koh Samui for an appointment at 9:00 am tomorrow. No appointments available in Koh Phangan. They told me to go and do a visa run!

I have to do my visa run June 12 but it’s better for a number of reasons for me to leave back home to US on the 20th. That means I would overstay by 8 days. But doing a visa run on the 12gh just to leave on the 20th would suck would it be so bad to overstay? I reaaalllly don’t want to overstay
