I am currently in a 60 day visa exempt entry. I am going to apply for a retirement visa. The 800k has been in my account since April, so that is fine. Everywhere that I read says I must go and apply for the retirement visa in the last 30 days of the date on my stamp to allow for sufficient time. My question is, can I go even earlier than that? Like 2 weeks after arrival? Or must I be at least 30 days into my stay before they will process the application?
Sorry, once again. I just apply for a METV in the Vienna Embassy.
On different intertnetsides you can read that you can apply 3 month in advance before entering Thailand.
In this forum it was said, you have to apply very shortly before departure, because the 6 month start with getting the approval, so in this case you will have much less then the six months for staying in the country.....
For visa extension on 60day visa exemption entry, do we apply at Immigration Division 1 or Laski. Can we apply early or 2 weeks before exit date? On the form, they ask to state reson for extension, what do you guys state or can leave it blank? Thanks
I fly in and arrive back into Phuket Thailand to start my Non O Marriage visa on Thursday 25th September 2025.
I worked out December 23rd is 90 days after 25/09/25 if you include the arrival day.
My mother has been unwell in Sydney Australia and I want to visit her around late October 2025 getting a re-entry permit to do so.
I just wanted to make sure incase the dates change to visit my mother when do I have to do this visit before to be back in Thailand in time to apply for my Visa Extension in phuket?
Is it 30 days before December 23rd?
Or in some cases I read you can apply 45 days before depending where you are.
1. I plan to be in Thailand for the first time on DTV in January 2026. I have been there multiple times without a visa (I am a Canadian). Should I apply for the DTV now (in the next month) or wait until November?
2. I am a health care provider. I am allowed to work remotely and am a business owner (sole proprietorship). However, I cannot provide Thai immigration with receipts with my client's name (for privacy reasons). Can I provide them with a few receipts with some information redacted? I will also give them bank receipts.
