Hello, for the last few years I've been employed on a non-B/work permit issued through the BOI but last year I changed company and this company is not a BOI entity which means I am now back to the regular "Chaengwattana system".

There was a whole mountain of paperwork required last year to move out of BOI that I figured was a one-off but I guess not as it is repeating somewhat this year.

I haven't been in this system for quite a while so I have a few questions about the process that my HR is either unable to answer or can't explain clearly due to language barrier.

* My current stamp expires on 29th April.

* We went to Chaengwattana yesterday to renew the visa and I got a new stamp that is valid until the 23rd of April.

* On the 23rd of April I need to either give HR my passport to get the 1 year single entry stamp or else I need to go with them to Chaengwattana again and get my photo taken for the 1 year multiple entry stamp. (I know it's also possible to do this at the airport if necessary.)

* My 90 day report is due on 18th April.

What I don't understand is:

* Why did they only give me a 3 week stamp? Why couldn't I just get the entire 1 year renewal + multiple entry permit done in one go yesterday?

* Does my 90 day report counter reset back to 0 now that I had an immigration 'event' and the visa has been renewed or does that operate on a separate counter and I still need to file it now?

Thanks in advance

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS

My apologies for getting the news wrong

Sorry for jumping the gun on the notice about Chaengwattana Building B being evacuated.

I just got confirmation from people out there that it's business as usual and people are waiting for their queue to be called for their immigration needs

They DID evacuate Building A though (but the immigration office is in Building B)

Hi all, question about 90 day report at CW Bangkok. Just moved here from Phuket, so learning about how things work here.

My 90 day report is due on March 16, I submitted online but it was rejected probably because I have a new passport.

So I tried making an appointment on the website but the earliest availability is on April 7. Can I just walk in or is it appointment-based only?

Thank you :)

Hi all. I'm about to submit my application for my 1 year extension based on marriage at Chaengwattana but I'm going the income route this time.

My HR has requested some docs too late and I'm concerned about the timeline here.

Worst case can I use a 60 day visit family extension to buy myself a bit more time to get this done?

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

Next month I’ll go to Chaengwattana to do the 90-day report for my husband and I, I know I can do it for him as long as I have his passport.

Is it the same for re-entry permit? We will go to France in July, I was wondering if the same rule applies? I might as well do it all the same day if confirmed.

Thanks!

Hello,

Where is the closest immigration to do my first 90 day reporting for DTV near Asoke Bangkok?

Thanks 🙏🏼

Happy New Year!

Have to get a new extension next month for Non-O (over 50). First time doing it in Bangkok. Does Chaengwattana require the bank issued transaction record or does the updated bank book and copy showing 12 months of transactions suffice (along with the bank letter)?

Hello guys, i am on my first ever Visa Exemption and want to extend it with 30 days. Is it at the same place at chian wattana as toursit visa extentions? Also my TM30 is from April this year, the one that i used to extend my first Tourist visa, is it going to work now too, since i am in the same condo or need recent one? Are there any additional documents needed?

Where is the best immigration office in BKK to get an extension??

Hi Group

Visiting and staying in Pathum Thani ( Rangsit ) at the moment.

Just asking if there are any Visa agents in the area or do I need to travel into the city.

Thanks in advance.
