Wondering if anyone knows if immigration in Bangkok or Hua Hin is accepting the current affidavit of income from Canadian Consulate as proof of income? TIA

The DTV Visa here in Canada is $650 CAD, or about $500 USD, seems high, would we be better off applying in Vietnam or Laos after we stay in Thailand on a 60 day Visa free on arrival? I see the fee is 10,000 THB in Laos, which is $400 CAD, much less than Canada, there is 2 of us, so the savings would be about $500 CAD, or about $380 USD if we did it in Laos?,That is a huge difference in fees

E-Visa from Canada,

Hello all I have a question if someone able to help me out please,

Anyone had experience when applying e-visa online in Vancouver Consulate and when asking Bank Statement approval Copy,( is mandatory to signed and stamp)the original copy from the Bank Manager?

Thank you any advice 🙏

TIA in advance to all the great admin people who do an excellent job. I have posted about a month ago so may have 1-2 same questions but a few new ones. I am 62 yr old Canadian, got 1 yr O-A from Canada, then renewed it for another yr while here. That is over April 25, they said i have to leave the country and come back with 30 day TV, then can get an extension here in Korat for another 30 days. Tomorrow i go to Korat Immigration to do my last 30 day reporting, never do it online for some reason, so then i will ask them my questions as well, i know it will be busy. Can i get a 30 day at Immigration and not have to cross the border, only have 1 full page and a few 1/2 pages in my passport. Or even a 7 day one so i can decide my options? i know i should have went to Canadian Consulate long ago to get a new passport but thought i would go back there this summer, but no. also first lady at their office e-mailed me saying i can't transfer my new O-A from my old one to the new, then i phoned them and a different lady said they can do this, so confused with them. Thanks again to all.

Hi all, first post on this highly recommended page.

Currently jumping through paperwork hoops for a Non-Imm "O" visa.

Anyone know if the Canadian consulate office in Chiang Mai issues statements of pension income and if so is there a charge?

Used to be a notorized letter from my Canadian financial institution was sufficent when getting the visa in Canada. Everything's online now which took my service level from 3 days to 3 weeks :(

Thx.

I will be getting a Non Imm O (retirement) using an affidavit of income from the Canadian consulate in Chiang Mai and I wonder how long immigration considers the letter valid to apply? One week? One Month? Three months? Anyone have knowledge? I would like to have all my paperwork in hand when I return from my overseas trip to reapply. Thank you

Any Canadians in bkk that recently successfully got the covid extension? Can you please share how you handled the embassy letter piece?

Hello, I am currently in the process of renewing my retirement visa. Last year I presented an affidavit from the Canadian Consulate in Chiang Mai which guaranteed that I had more than 65000 Baht deposited into my Thai bank account for a period of more than one year. I will be unable to get this same affidavit this year since the consulate is closed due to the Covid Virus. I am not sure what to do next. Is this affidavit really necessary to present to Thai Immigration?
