Hi all, I've been trying to email the Thai Embassy in Rome for this information but I'm still yet to receive a reply so far after three emails, one per week for the last three weeks I thought I'd try asking my questions here. Some are pretty general and one is specific to the Embassy in Rome. It'll be a long post so I really appreciate anyone who takes the time to read and advise.

My first question is as a British National who spends most of his time in Libya, around 7 months of the year, and the remainder of his time in Thailand, am I able to apply for my Non O visa in Libya which uses the Rome Embassy due to no Embassy in Libya, if it helps I do have a residence visa in Libya.

My second question is applying for my Non O so I can legally spend as much time as possible in Thailand with my son, would I select the staying with Thai family option?

My Third question which is specific to the Thai Embassy in Rome is has anyone successfully applied for a visa and been accepted without having the money in there accounts for 3 months? I currently have the money but it's only been in my account for 5 weeks.

That's me finished, if you made it to here thanks very much!

What, if you have a DTV but just want to enter Thailand for a two week vacation on this occasion, NOT for a Muay Thai course or a cooking class, but just to relax. Do you have to ask for the visa exempt stamp or enter on DTV regardless?

Applied for DTV dependant. They gave me non b instead. Happened to anyone?

Any update on Wise ? I know of a Thai woman who recently tried to send money from UK to the Kasikorn bank and the payment was refused by the bank.

I am arriving in 4 weeks. I am very sure of every question on the arrival form but one. “Occupation”. I am retired and now and receiving my state pension. Should I say my occupation before I retired or my current situation. Retired or on a pensionThank you.

Hi there..

I lived and worked in Bkk for many years, working at The Nation..blah blah...came back to the UK to take care of aged mum for seven years.

Now I want to move back to Thailand (Hua Hin) and researching the best way to obtain a 90 day Non O visa while here in the UK...i have read so much conflicting advice about the process, so if anyone in the know can shed some real light on this i would be eternally grateful. Cheers.

If on a 60 day visa exemption and you send your copy and application off, for a UK passort renewal. Can you still get a 30 day extension with the old passport, incase the renewal takes longer than 60 days?

Hi all, a question on behalf of my dad who's living in Thailand on a UK state pension.

He has come back to the UK after 6 years in Thailand and plans to stay here for around 6 to 8 months. He has let his residents visa expire in Thailand before coming back home to England.

If and when he returns to Thailand, will he permanently keep his pension increase that he will have received for over 6 months here?

I have worked out everything so will be applying to the embassy in the US for the “O” visa to get my 90 days coming into Thailand which should hopefully allow me to open my Thai Bank Account and transfer the 800k Baht to season for 60 days so I am able to file my one year extension.

My question is I do know the area I think I want to start out and was planning on using Airbnb. I am wondering if this feasible or if I actually would need a more permanent address? I am hesitant to go straight into a one year lease and everything I see all say one year contracts or is there a way to terminate a lease early. Or is there a place to look for shorter term leases?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi Everyone.

My WP is expiring within few days, but my annual extension of stay till mid July with multiple re-entry stamp. My company is not able to renew my WP. If I leave the country and come back will the visa be accepted still? What is the best and cheapest solution? Thank you 🙏
