I’m an Irish male 67, with a non immigration O single entry (with “retired” remark) eVisa obtained from Thai London embassy (they also issue for citizens of the Republic of Ireland in recent years). Background; I have a long term Thai gf (>18 years together.. we are not married. I stay at her house in Korat).

A couple of questions relating to an upcoming trip in Nov:

1. Can I extend this visa at an internal immigration centre or do a border run with ease and return for 30 days as a tourist (no visa needed?) just prior to the evisa expiring?

2. Following that extension or return in Point 1, I need to go to Australia for a few weeks.

3. What are my options to return to Thailand again for another ca. 55-60 days before returning home to Ireland next April/May? E.g. Apply for another 90 days eVisa whilst in Australia (as if I was applying online from Ireland) OR enter again as a tourist (no visa needed?) for 30 days and extend it internally for another 30 days.

I guess I’m wondering are there any limits to the number of tourist entries and / or extensions one can get per entry in a single calendar year that could trip me up?

I would effectively be seeking to stay ~90 days, then ~ 30 days, and then on return from Australia another ~60 days before finally returning home to Ireland.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I am confused about when to file a TM30. I have a mulri-entry Non-O retirement visa. I have filed my first 90-day report.

1. I went to Bangkok for an overnight in a hotel. Does the hotel file a TM30? Do I need to file a TM30 when I return home to Pattaya?

2. I go to Singapore for a week. When I return, my 90-day reporting period is reset, and I must file a TM30?

Thanks for your serious, helpful response!

Hi, my girlfriend and I are planning to go to Thailand in mid-November for three months. After that, we will leave the country and return in mid-March for another 30-60 days.

We are currently traveling as well. How can we apply for such a visa? I can’t find an application form anywhere online.

Who can help us?

I wish to marry a Thai lady that I have been with for 7 years but I do not have my Birth Certificate.What can I do

Hi running a company in Thailand can I get a non O business visa at the immigration office

What are the required documents

hi - has anyone ever made experiences with the soft reason "music festival"? Indeed, we attaend a 5 day festival this year so I am wondering if this is enough or if (some) embassies want you to be an artist/actor/performer. applying in Jakarta tomorrow as I am travelling in Indonesia atm. Thank you

I am about to go apply in Jakarta and wanted to ask if they asked for bank statements from 3 months back or if they’d accept the most recent statement showing the required funds. I ask this because, while I have the required funds, I do not keep all of money in one single account for security reasons. Any response will be appreciated

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good visa agency for retirement visa ? I will be returning to Benchalak in 6 weeks and would like to start the process. Was going to try to open Bank account in kantharlak myself , but I’m hearing it’s hard to do. TIA

For info - travelled on 90 day Non o visa issued by London Thai embassy - LHR to BKK via Eva Air 12/10/24 my ticket had return date of 24/3/25 (163 days)

In LHR Eva didn't ask to see visa, boarded with no issues. In BKK passport stamped with 90 day and no questions asked about 163 day return date. (Was ready to explain I was applying for Marriage Visa in Dec for 12 month)

Just my experience.

Can you have two active Visas at the same time? I am currently in Bangkok on a 90-day non O visa effective until 29 December. I plan to secure a re-entry permit to fly to Vietnam in November and apply for a DTV Visa. If successful, can I come back to Bangkok still under the Non O Visa, leave without the re-entry permit then enter next year 2025 under the DTV visa? Reason that I need to come back is that I already paid for an Airbnb for the month of November.
