Hi.

Im coming over is August/September to live permanently in Hui Hin. I know all the rules about visas and money and bank accounts.

My question is that I will be applying for a Non O Married visa from the UK. We are having a house built and will not be ready to December. If we are in rented accommodation for a couple of months only, will the TM30 for the rented accommodation be okay for a married extension and soon as we move into our own house, my wife sets up the TM30 for me.

Will the IO still visit us in the rented accommodation? Cheers

Has anyone tried or knows if it's possible to do a...well let's say for example the max time you can stay in the country is 120 days....but does that mean you as a person or under that passport? If you have multiple passports, then is it possible to max out one and come back on another? Lol

Thanks for all your answers. I did presume about the whole biometrics thing. Naturally even if I had 2 passports, I wouldn't try it anywhere. Live long and prosper :)

Hi if i get a non o retirement visa but do not manage to get bank account opened in time for the 800k to be in long enough, what happens. Do you just have to leave Thailand and get another Non o visa cheers

If you are fully registered on the household of your Thai wife and you have your own book of household together with a Thai ID for foreigner, do you still need a new TM30 form every time you re-enter the country again or if you renew the annual stay permission?

Ok, I have a dilemma. I take a large distribution from a retirement account annually in January, and plan to move to Thailand in November. To qualify for the Non-immigrant O Retirement, it is easier for me to qualify earlier in the year, rather than later. I always have the funds to qualify for the $800,000 bhts., but prefer to take the money from my retirement account until next year. My dream is to be able to apply in June or July this year. I would already have the funds needed for everything. Is it possible to apply for a visa that early, if my plan is to go November 1? How long do these Visas last once they are approved (not including the 90 days once there)?

Sawasdee pee mai everyone!

Just curious how much does it cost for ED VISA with Agency and how much time those the process take?

Thanks

How many days of 2025 will you have spent in Thailand by the end of the year?

Even though the visa grants a 180-day stay with each entry, is there a kind of unofficial upper limit on the number of days spent in the country that makes de facto resident status interpretable?

My visa was approved as a remote worker. I work for my long-standing EU employer in my rented flat in Thailand with two screens, a LAN connection and a fixed desk. Leaving the country regularly is not realistic.

By the end of the year, I will have spent about 315 days in this country. Next year, I plan to return to my home country for 1-3 months, in addition to a shorter stay in a neighbouring country.

Got all my stuff. Tm30 visa bank account. Went 2 immigration noticed I needed pi tures went downstairs had pictures taken. There was a lady there with passports and bank books there filling out tm7s. She said she could do mine even though my 800k was only in for a couple days. What's up with that? Should I wait or pay her 27k baht to expedite?

Was fined 2K THB today for missing 90 day reporting by a one day. Lets say I arrived on the 1st, I thought 1 day in Thailand would be on the 2nd. But the first day is included. It ran late due to a family emergency over the past few weeks. Immigration were very rude.

I'm wondering if this is a big deal to have this fine in my passport going forward. I have a DTV.

Hi,

is it easy/possible to rent a condo for 12 months on a DTV (on the basis you have to leave the country ever 6 months and may not return) now that its virtually impossible to hold a Thai Bank Account?

thanks
