Hi, I have a single entry Non-O visa and have been stamped in until the 29th of November. I'm going to leave Thailand soon for 3 weeks and will return at the beginning of November. I will get a single re-entry permit at the airport upon departure. When I return I believe I will be stamped in until the 29th of November. Can I apply for an extension of stay at Immigration (BKK Div 1) say 2 weeks before the 29 Nov stamp expires?

As i will be arriving on a Non O in December, i am using an agent in Pattaya to open a bank account. Requires Passport, visa, SIM registered in my name, and hotel booking. (Booked 5 days but said I only need 2-3)

Then return to my wifes village in Buriram and we have booked a homestay for 3 months as we are still looking for land to build s small house.

For the 12 months extension based on marriage, has anyone done something similar to this?

I guess for retirement wisas this kind of option is more common as foreigners cannot own a house but instead only have rental as an option?

I have work permit in Thailand till November, I want to ask: if I want to finish the work permit in this month, does my visa must be finished on the same day? Or the visa still can be finished in November? Because I want to change my work permit to retirement visa in Thailand.

Hi guys, hopefully just a quick question. Changing from retirement visa to marriage. Money seasoned etc got all docs. I went to Jomtien Immigration today to ask for requirements info. He also gave me form.for extension of stay to complete. I assume this is to tide me over in the interim period between retirement visa stopping and marriage visa is granted!! Am I correct. Thanks

I hope I have a pretty simple question. I have searched but not quite figure it out. Wouldn't one advantage of going from an extension of stay based on age to a Thai citizen marriage visa be to reduce the amount of money needed in a Thai bank from 800k baht to 400k baht? Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone here has experience changing from an ED visa to a Non-O visa (based on family, with a Thai child).

Can this change be done inside Thailand without needing to leave the country?

What steps did you take, and what documents were needed?

I’d really appreciate any advice or tips from those who’ve gone through this process. Thanks in advance!

Me again, I will be leaving Thailand at the end of September, late afternoon 30 Sept to be exact. I understand the Work Permit and Extention of Stay (both only expire on Feb next year), can be canceled on the same day, but one never knows with queues and traffic, etc, I'm worried about running out of time. I understand one can apply for a 7 day extension at B1900? Now my question: Wouldn't it be better to do it the Monday 29th September, then just pay the B500 overstay (hope I'm correct about the amount and procedure), I really don't need more time to "tie things up"? I might return to Thailand by next year May, or perhaps not, things are still up in the air! Any advice will be appreciated!

Quick question, when you deposit the 800,000 into a Thai bank account do you have to prove it came from overseas like the monthly method or not
