I'm currently on a 1 year non-o based on raising thai child visa which will end in January. This is my first year on that visa so when I got it I received 1 month "under consideration", someone from the immigration came to my place to see if everything is legit and after that I got the other 11 months stamped.

My question:

Will I get again the 1 month stamp or directly 12?

Responsible immigration is the one in Chiang Mai. I called them but they just send me around and couldn't give me a clear answer. In summer I went to the south with my kid to avoid the smoke hence my tm30 changed for a while but is now back to my initial place when I did the visa.

[New Passport] I’m about to send my passport off for renewal but before I do I want to know how do I transfer my visa from the old to the new one when it arrives?

- USA passport

- Non-Imm Visa for studying at university

- Currently live/study in Chiang Mai

- Renewed 90 day report on 11 November for current passport.

I was planning to return to Thailand with the 60 days upon entry, in February. Now I seem to be reading that Somehow I must return to immigration to show TM 30 or tm something after I arrive? They may be making it too challenging …I would appreciate some clarification upon entry please.

What do u do after u enter Thailand with DTV? Do u have to register again? When I went to my local police station they said they didnt know anything yet.

Do I need to do 90 report? For example?

Hi lam coming tomorrow Thailand on the 25th of November with a 60 day visa free entry, but would like to extend it to 90 days.

Is it possible to ask on arrival for the extra 30 days or should l wait and extend my stay by going to an immigration office in Bangkok ?

Also as l have a Thai friend who will be picking me up l do not have a hotel reservation or proof of Accommodation, but will be staying at a resort but will book when l arrive, would this be a problem on arrival without proof of accommodation.

Thanks for any help.

After 18 years moved from Kanchanaburi to Bangkok, had to do my 1st 90 days after moving and tried online which got rejected. Then tried to make an apppointment at Bangkok immigration but the appointments are all full till way over my 90 days report date 11 November......What to do? Can I just walk in?

In the UK at the moment and just received my new UK passport.

My retirement visa and multi entry are in my old passport which I also have.

Where and when will this get transferred to the new passport?

When I return and do the 90 day report or before?

I am currently staying in Thailand on the DTV. I heard there are some requirements for reporting where you stay while in the country.

Anyone have a link to those requirements?

How strict are they? Is it a hard requirement?

Hi. When I visit Thailand I stay with my g/f in her rented condo near Rangsit. I'm never usually there for more than 2 months at a time, a few times a year.

In the past, when I had to apply for a 60 day visa, (from UK) I completed a TM30 myself with all of her details etc & took to the local Immigration Office. Only on one occasion did the Officer take any action & stamped the receipt part of TM30 & returned to me. On the 2nd occasion, I did the same thing but was told by a different official that TM 30 was NOT required. When I queried this, she said if questioned, just to say the Immigration Officer has stated "Not Required."

I'm sure I'm obliged to compete. Anyone else had to deal with this type of situation where partner is in rented accommodation? Thanks.

Question: I am trying to get my 3 month non-o (retirement) extended by 12 months. I checked the official Immigration website for necessary documents (see link), but under no 22 they mention neither TM.30 nor that you must present a lease contract. However, I have heard from people that they have been asked for both. So this is very confusing if you cannot even trust Immigration‘s own website. Does anyone know from practical experience what they ACTUALLY want to see when you go to get the extension? Many many thanks - I am getting more confused by the hour…
