I successfully applied for the DTV in Taipei and have the visa in my passport. However, I just noticed that they have listed “TWN” (Taiwanese) as my nationality, which is incorrect. I have already left Taiwan. Can this be fixed in Thailand? I would prefer not to have to travel back to Taiwan just for this.

I made a mistake and didn’t look at my stamp when I entered Thailand (I’m acknowledging that now to prevent a scolding 😜), but the officer at the Chiangmai airport did not see my non-immigrant visa and he stamped me in on a 30-day tourist visa. What is the best way to fix this?

Hello, I arrived in Thailand the 30th of November and expected 30 days (visa on arrival). Somehow I got 90 days instead and when I asked my lawyer she said it’s all good.

My nationality is Dutch and I heard they changed the rules and some nationalities now get 90 days on arrival, yet I can not find anything about this. Can someone confirm this? Thank you kindly 🙏

Hi guys, bit of a complicated situation. So I have a BOI company in Bangkok of which I am the Managing Director. My passport was stolen last year in Phuket and so the visa had to be transferred to my new passport. Apparently Immigration at OSSC Chamchuri Square made a mistake and transferred as non-b but my initial visa I enterred was non-ib. Now I need to extend my visa and single window system tells me I need to contact immigration to change from non-b to non-ib before being able to make the appointment for visa and work permit extension. With my extensive experience with visa and WP in Thailand, I have the feeling this probably won’t be possible as immigration would need to acknowledge that they did a mistake to change it which I don’t think they will. So I am already prepared to fly out and get a new non-b or non-ib and just apply for a new visa and Work Permit. Or anyone thinks there is a chance this might work? I am not in Bangkok right now, otherwise I would just go and ask of course but not sure if it is even worth it or just a waste of time. Maybe someone has experience with this or has been in a similar situation before.

Many thanks, Carl!

Hi, advice needed please, I'm a brit, coming to phuket in November, applied for a 60 day tourist visa, which I have recieved, however on the visa my passport expiry date is wrong, does anyone know if I can correct this, or doesn't it matter, it's only the month that is wrong

thanks in advance

Advice needed:

Applied, paid and was granted a 60 day TR single entry visa from Thai Embassy in Australia.

I intend to take advantage of getting a 30 day extension when time is correct to do so. Maximum stay in Thailand will be 89 days.

Accommodation has been paid and return flight to Australia has been booked and paid.

Staying with friends in ChiangRai.

Problem:

Have now just realised that at entry into Thailand at Suvarnabhumi Airport I have been stamped with wrong visa class. (30 days)

(yes, I should of checked but the damage is done)

I have checked with ChiangRai Immigration and they say they cannot help me.

Apparently my only option is to fly back to Bangkok.

Can this mistake be rectified at Immigration at Suvarnabhumi Airport or do I need to go an Immigration Office elsewhere.

Thnx…

Advise needed.

My friend got non b working visa applied and secured from her country before coming here. Arrived in Phuket airport 5 days ago and just found out today to that the immigration stamped her 45 days visa on arrival.

Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

I am traveling on a German passport and have a Non-immigrant O Multi Entry (90 day) (Retirement) e-Visa.

Arrived 2 days ago at Phuket airport (for less than 90 days) but noticed yesterday the immigration officer had stamped my passport with a Non O A until Nov. 2023.

Will Phuket immigration be able to correct this or do I need to return to the airport?

Hi. I have a colleague that recently obtained a NON B visa in Vientienne Laos. He used the Nong Kai border crossing. He has only just noticed that the border crossing did not see his Non B visa and stamped him in for 30 days. On speaking to our local immigration (Chachoengsao) they have advised any border crossing can amend the stamp for him. The nearest border crossing for him is Aranyaprathet into Cambodia. I just want to know if anyone can confirm this is correct I don't want him to have a wasted journey if they say he needs to go to NongKai for the amendment. Thanks

I'm a work permit holder. My husband got a visa to accompany me from the Thai consulate in LA, California but they mistakenly listed the reason as "Thai wife". Our local immigration office won't grant an extension of stay until the mistake is corrected, but I can't get any response from the consulate in LA.

I'm thinking that we'll have to exit the country, apply again at a consulate outside of Thailand, and return. Is that correct?

(I get zero visa support from my employer for family members. Even getting the appropriate documents to apply for the visa was a struggle.)
