As somebody who has their first Non O — 1 year Extension of Stay date coming up at Bangkok Immigration, I have 2 questions; 1). Am I supposed-to in advance glue one of the 2 recent identical headshots required, to the application form? AND 2. If II have already a preplanned trip back to America this summer, and to avoid dealing with it at the airport in June, is it possible to receive a valid EXIT STAMP in my passport at the end of the upcoming Extension of Stay appointment?

Hi all, so I was planning to get my Non O visa in the UK and fly out next month to Bangkok, the intention was to get the 1 year extension visa on this trip.... given all these issues getting a bank account, is it now going to be impossible ? I didn't intend on using an agent and I was going to try and sort it myself in one of the bank branches...I would be grateful for any advise, as I'm currently stuck in limbo..

thanks.

Hello

Can someone explain the difference in a Non O and a Non AO visa please?

It seems a lot less hassle applying for a Non O as don't need police check or insurance.

I'm 57 so hoping the Non O is the way to go.

I don't have a bank account and can see from other posts that it not possible to get on in visa exempt now.

With a Non O visa is it an easy process to open a Bank account to convert it to 12m?

Thanks

I have a question

About the 800 000

Must be in a thai bank

Or it's possible to have the money in my won European bank

Hi everyone! I’m on a Non O (married to Thai) visa with the annual extension ending in June. Unfortunately I’m going through a divorce (common farang/thai situation 😒) and will change to the DTV next month.

QUESTION please: Do I need to cancel my Non O visa before leaving the Thailand to apply for the DTV? Or are there any other steps I need to do please?

I was hoping to have the DTV visa lined up before the divorce is final since I have made Thailand my home and plan to return.

Thanks in advance for all your help! 🙏

Hello! I’m a Thai National and my husband is applying for the Non O visa. They require an invitation from me inviting him to my mother’s home in Thailand.

Does it have to be handwritten and in Thai?

Thank you 🙏🏼

Would anyone happen to know how see the processing times of the various embassies and consulate for the DTV please? If there is no website that shows this information, could someone please tell me the three fastest consulates in Southeast Asia for the DTV please? Currently living in Thailand on a Non O Visa with annual extension and need to change to DTV. Thank you! 🙏

Is there any information if TINs or tax clearance receipts are now required to renew Non O visas for retired expats ?

Hello.

I have a Non "O" visa multiple entry got in Vientiane 01.08.24. I obtained this being married to a thai national.

We both have a 9 years old child together (my name on birth certificate).

My thai wife now wishes to divorce and here is the question.

A few years ago here was written that this type of visa is not cancelled after divorce and can be used untill the provided date (July 2025).

Please advise if this term is still valid and I should not notify immigration about marriage cancellation and immediately do a new visa based on kid's care.

Also if someone have an experience in local divorce procedure please share it with me in private message as I have no idea how its going on...

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Hopefully I can get some guidance here and this is not a repeat question ... I have searched but ......

I am on a Non O retirement visa using a bank deposit ... vs a pension.

Can I change banks if at all times I maintain the minimum THB400,000 deposit in the post 3 month period of my visa extension. ... as in I initially have two accounts with THB400,000 plus in them and then drain the old to fill the new.

So at my next renewal I will have statements from two different banks covering the 12 month period but collectively meeting all balance requirements.

Logically that seems ok to me but I know the system has its own intricacies!

I hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance.
