Slightly niche issue… I applied for a 90 day Non-O EVisa before travelling to Thailand with my wife however the application didn’t process fast enough before our flight to Thailand.

The officer let me in on a 60 day exemption in order to change my visa once I receive confirmation of my Non-O. Work schedule and unforeseen medical issues meant I was unable to go and submit this change. I now have 1 week left on my 60 day exemption.

Am I better off extending my tourist visa for 30 days at Lak Si division 1 or going through the lengthy day long process of going to the government building and claiming the last 30 days of my Non-O?

Also something to note, I did not receive a TM-30 when entering which I know Lak Si will be strict on.

If I get my landlord to submit the TM-30 on my behalf, would they put the date of entry to the country or the start of my lease last year?

Here's a tricky one for you...

If I apply for my Non O for my retirement visa through the E visa platform, meaning I will still have my passport in my posession, can I enter Thailand on exemption while I'm waiting for approval and once I get approved leave and re enter with my Non O? 🤔

Would it be possible to do the following:

Enter Thailand via exemption, then get a 30 day extension and apply during that time, whilst in Thailand, for a non- immigrant O (90day) visa?

Hi guys. I flew in from london 60 days ago and after the 30 day exemption was up i applied and got a 30 day extension.

My landlord says i can go to the local (patong) emigration kiosk and apply for another 30 days but im not so sure if he is correct on that score.

I dont want to fly back to london then return again simply because that gets a bit £xxy and ive done it twice already.

Any advice please. Cheers..

Hello....

Is it right that visa run can be done only 3 times a year? (Calender year!?)

Cheers
