Extending single entry Tourist visa in Chiang Mai >>>

Hi all, I did recently post in regards to exact requirements to extend TR visa and the only thing I want to double check are requirement for the TM30.

Can anyone confirm for me if immigration officers accept a printed copy of a current and up to date TM30 or do they really require their own paper slip copy?

Thank you for confirmation in this.

¡Es muy apreciado! 💥ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ

Does anyone know of an English speaking lawyer in the Sa Kaeo area

Hi,is the Tm 30 form active in Thailand at this present time ?

I was here 12 months ago and it was a requirement.

Thank you in advance 👍

I have an extension of stay based on retirement. I have been asked to assist on a job for approximately 3 weeks in the south of Thailand. Due to the covid situation they cannot get personnel into the country easily and in time. The company will apply for a temporary work permit for me to cover this work period. My concern is will my extension of stay be cancelled upon temporary WP being issued?

I know if i were applying for a full time WP it would be cancelled so i assume it may be same for TWP but need to confirm ASAP.

I believe immigration is closed for for a day or so and would appreciate any relevant info anyone may have. Please do not comment if you dont know. Cheers

If i pay for a volunteer visa, can i later switch to a non-o after a year without leaving?

I just returned home after a month outside Thailand. I purchased a reentry visa before leaving. Do I have to scurry to immigration to let them know I am back?

I have a non O "retirement" visa.

Sorry for another tedious TM30 question. I know what the law says and I have watched the video about criminal aliens, but what I would like to know is: Is Chaengwattana demanding a TM30 EVERY time you come/return to the country, or just once when you apply/extend so they have your address on file?

A buddy of mine is a British passport holder and he has two sons from his Laotian wife who have automatically got a British passport. Both are under 15 and have never done in a visa in Thailand ... does the old rule still apply that’s kids under the age of 15 are not considered overstay or have rules changed.

Can they exit the country with their dad normally or are they considered overstay?

Thanks in advance!

A few stories have popped up in the last few days regarding people overstaying their visas being caught and held in custody including what seems to be a mass round up in Bangkok.

For many people, It has been generally an acceptable process to "overstay" and pay the fine on the way out as opposed to the rigmarole of going out to immigration and getting your visa or your exemption extended.

It's quite evident that laws in Thailand can be enforced arbitrarily and it's better to er on the side of caution and do what is essentially the right thing as overstaying is generally considered quite a heinous offence in most countries.

DONT risk it. Go and pay for an extension and give yourself peace of mind. If your overstay is more than 4 days you will also save money.
