This pertains to Ubon Ratchanthani, just did my 1 year extension for Thai child and there have been a couple changes in the process. My wife had to fill out an affidavit, we had to get a friend or a relative to give a copy of their ID card and house book. Plus they were very specific about the photos, bedroom, kitchen, TV room, by front door of house, next to house number and a complete view of front of house. We had to retake the house number photo so it was straight on( could not be at an angle) and they wanted a wider view of front of house.

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

Hello! We are on our first 20 days of a 60 day tourist visa. We would like to extend it a further 30 days and were wondering which would be the best way:

1. Do it now, while in a vacation rental in Ao Nang, as we leave in 2 weeks for a friend’s empty house in Pattaya.

2. It is fine to wait until Pattaya, staying at a friend’s place versus a rental will not matter much.

3. Just do a visa run instead since it is our first time in Thailand and unlikely to get denied for a single run.

Thanks for any input!

I need a extended 30 day visa my 60 day runs out 18th May but going home 25th May anybody recommend a agency please thank you all sorted now

The 800,000THB

In the account three months before application

Can then use 400,000THB

And restore to 800,000THB two months before renewal?
