I went to Kalasin Immigration for an extension of stay due to retirement. I got there at the opening time of 08:30 and was first in line and out the door at 09:30. I am a Canadian so use a letter from my embassy as proof of income. I showed that my Passport with a copy of each used page, my yellow book and pink ID card and a copy of each. The officer then asked for a copy of my wife's ID card and Bluebook and I had them with me so showed them. I had the TM8 form filled out and a picture. And the reentry form for one entry and picture. That was it, previous years they had me sign a couple of other forms, but not this year. ฿1,900 for the extension and ฿1,000 for the single reentry. They also updated my 90 day reporting. A very simple process. my praise to the Kalasin Immigration department.

Have a question about filling out a re-entry form (TM.8) for immigration (don't want to do it at the airport) as a retiree on an extension.

On the 2nd side, it asks for type of Visa and issued at/date, does that refer to your original visa? (e.g. Non-Immigrant-O) - mine was many years ago , or do they really just mean your last extension date? (it also asks for arrival date, should that be your last arrival in Thailand (as on the TM.7) or the original date you first got a Non-Immigrant visa to Thailand?)

As far as I remember, I've never had to put down my original Non-O visa issue date or arrival date on any forms before....

Thanks.

Hi. Doing my retirement extension tomorrow. What is the form for multiple re-entry permit please?

I have some questions regarding the application for a re-entry permit (TM.8 form). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1) Where it says "My previous visa for Thailand, etc", do you always use the first and original visa issued (the laminated one? ours is a "non-O" issued in Penang in June 2017)

2) Where it says, "I arrived in Thailand, etc", do you always use the last date you arrived at an immigration counter? (in our case the date is July 15th when we returned from an overseas trip to CNX)

3) And where it says "And have been permitted to stay up until, etc); What if you've since received a new extension and therefore the date doesn't match the last "admitted until stamp" from the last time you were admitted? (ours is based on retirement and Do you use your latest "permitted to stay until" date?

4) Are you supposed to staple or tape the 4 x 6 cm photo to the TM8 form?

Thanks everyone.

Hi guys filling in a TM.8 form.

To take to Suvarnahumbi airport to get my re-entry before leaving for the UK.

It might sound silly but the question on page two is:

I Arrived in Thailand on

Date Month Year.

So is this my last time I entered Thailand. Which was 10th May 2018 when I visited Vietnam?

And I take this form a photo and ฿1000 along with my passport to desk just after security but before passport control in the left hand corner of the passport control room. TYIA
