Just a quick question regarding sponsorship..

Does it have to be a parent or spouse?

I am self employed but contracted long term to a friends business would they be allowed to sponsor me as an individual or as a company?

Thanks in advance 🙏

Hi i have a question regarding my entry into thailand

I have a retirement visa with multiple entry

This will be my first time entering Thailand since issue upon entry do i need to go and get a 90 day stamp in my passport?

Hi all, I’m on a retirement visa and my first renewal date is 22nd Sept 2025. I’ve been doing my 90 reporting online but my next one I’d due 15th Sept only a week before my visa renewal. Can I just renew my non O visa early instead of doing the 90 day report?

Also, do I need the same documents for the renewal as when I first applied for my retirment visa, including the bank document showing the 800k came from the UK or is that not necessary anymore just 12 months statements? TIA

Hello everybody!

I want to enter Thailand on a visa, get married at Ampur, register the marrige in Thailand and then change my visa to (Spouse visa) NON-O.

What visa should I use when I arrive in Thailand, that makes this possible?

Hi everyone, planning to arrive in Thailand with a Non-O visa at which point I need to open a bank account. I understand that the bank will require a certificate of residence issued by immigration.

My question is, if I am staying in a hotel for the first few weeks, assuming the hotel has submitted my TM30, will I experience any difficulties in obtaining the certificate of residence? Or will immigration expect a lease agreement to issue the certificate of residence?

In short, can one obtain a certificate of residence from immigration if they are staying in a hotel? Thank you!

I’ve not even started applying yet, I’m just looking for some help, I’m based in UK and we have the money in the account to demonstrate the 500k baht, do they focus more on the money or the job element on the application?

Surprised today going to Bangkok Bank asking to open a bank account based on a 90 day O visa and holding the document provided from the immigration office.

There answer was that they don’t open anymore account to foreigners even though I explained that I am not on a tourist visa but a O non immigrant one .

My second attempt was going to Krungsri and all looks well. They copied all my documents and they will call me in two days.

What a nightmare...

Probably most my fault.

Got my Non immigrant 0 e visa the other day with digital print out of which i print out in colour.

With done i took print out and I my ID I needed to kasikorn bank.

Was refused bank account

Lady quite polite..

She says i need passport stamped and then get retirement visa from immigrant. Completely opposite to what government says...

I heading to Khon Kaen

immigration tomorrow to

See where I go from here.

Is Kasikorn a difficult bank

Or which is best

All new to me....

Cheers

I was told that I must leave the kingdom to apply for a non-O visa. This was a surprise to me.

I believed this question had being asked before but I cannot search for similar thread.

My Non O Marriage Visa expired on 18 Aug and will be relocating back to my home country. However I would like to extend my stay for another 2 weeks till end of August.

What are my options? Can I apply for a further short term for like 14 days with proof of my return air ticket? And where?

Or Leave the country before my non o expired and return after the expiry date?

Thank you in advance for your reply
