I want to change my O-A to an O visa. Is it important that I cancel my current visa Extension first or can I just bounce across a border, get a 60 visa exemption stamp and let my current Extension lapse?
I have worked out everything so will be applying to the embassy in the US for the “O” visa to get my 90 days coming into Thailand which should hopefully allow me to open my Thai Bank Account and transfer the 800k Baht to season for 60 days so I am able to file my one year extension.
My question is I do know the area I think I want to start out and was planning on using Airbnb. I am wondering if this feasible or if I actually would need a more permanent address? I am hesitant to go straight into a one year lease and everything I see all say one year contracts or is there a way to terminate a lease early. Or is there a place to look for shorter term leases?
I entered Thailand on an O Retirement Visa and now need to extend it. For the visa itself, I did not need to provide proof of health insurance, but I’ve read that such proof is required for the extension. If this ist right, does anyone have experience with the combination of German Beihilfe and private insurance, and how this can be documented in a way that is accepted by the immigration office? Could somebody give me advice?
Well getting caught in the U.S. Federal Government downsizing so will be retiring this year versus next year. Right now I'm planning on landing along the coast between Bangkok and Pattaya and will be applying for the 90 day "O" visa (I think versus the OA) to enter and then doing the one year extension after I get a bank account sorted out. So a few questions for anyone willing to provide any guidance or thoughts to the following:
1) Not 100% sure this is where I want to end up, but would it be better to stay in the same area until after the first 12 month Visa extension is completed or isn't this an issue (I keep reading there are slight differences in different immigration offices).
2) Anyone have a recommendation on an agency to assist with the opening a bank account, getting Thai license, and 12 month extension either in Pattaya or Bangkok?
I expect to arrive in Thailand sometime late Oct or early mid November (just completed a two week vacation there a couple of weeks ago. Any other thoughts or tidbits someone wants to share will be greatly appreciated!
