For the extension of stay based on retirement, using the monthly transfer method... Do the Immigration Offices care about international outgoing transactions?
The Norwegian Embassy is stopping with the affadavits confirming income from next year, and people who have been getting Non-O and extending their stays with the Affidavit as proof of income are now looking for alternatives. In particular this is about those who don't stay the entire year, but a lot of it. While there are other options, getting the extensions of stay based on their original Non-O would of course be preferable.
So I am wondering if people would be able to send the required 65k a month minimum TO Thailand, but send this amount BACK to a Norwegian account on the months where they are not staying in Thailand.
Or if this would raise some eyerbows at Immigration?
There's be 12 months of 65k going in, but some of those months would see the same amount transferred right back out.
Again, just a question out of curiosity, as trying to help find the best alternatives for the people affected by the Embassies decision.
Hello. Just to clarify for my mind. Do I have to renew my retirement visa before the 15th July. Just that it's got a stamp from the last one of 19th June 2024 so I am thinking I must have have a spare month on my last visa that is carried over. All help is much appreciated.
I did my first 90-day report in person while on a one year extension of stay for retirement. Before my next 90-day reporting date will come due, I used a single-entry permit to leave and return after 7 days.
My understanding is that the re-entry resets the 90-day reporting period to "day 1", and the new report date is now due 90 days from the date that I re-entered Thailand.
I am asking to confirm because there is nothing indicating a new date in the stamp in my passport, etc. - I only have the now-outdated paper 90-day receipt and nothing except the re-entry stamp to go by. So is it just up to me to determine and submit the report by the self-calculated date? I don't want to run up any fines without knowing it. Thanks.
On 6 June 2024 the IO here in Chiang Mai granted me an extension of stay based on the Non - O over 50 (retirement) visa using the international bank transfer of 800,000 baht. The expiry date ends on July 2 2025 (in effect 13 months according to the stamps in my passport).
The next extension of stay will be applied for and based on the monthly income method of 65,000 baht minimum international bank transfer every month for 12 months.
I’ve been working on keeping 400k in my account for non-o 1 year and it accidentally dipped under 400k by like 70 baht for a few days before I noticed.. I immediately replaced the money but does that mean I’m screwed? I had it all lined up for my visa ending in 2 months.
How much grace can immigration centers afford us with these types of accidents?
