Hello everyone! A few days ago I received my first one-year Extension of Stay Permit (EOS) from my immigration office. I had my salary certificate certified by my embassy in Bangkok. My immigration told me that I actually have to have this certified certificate certified again in Bangkok by a Thai authority. (over-authentication).

What is the name of this authority in Bangkok?

And where is this authority located?

Because it is my first EOS, my immigration has kindly stamped the EOS in my passport without this additional authentication just for this time.

Thank you for your answers!

Is an appointment required or are walk ins ok at the ministry of foreign affairs in pattaya

Hello!

I wanted to apply for the DTV visa by getting physiotherapy treatments in a clinic in Bangkok… I messaged a few clinics about it and some told me they could write a treatment plan, but one told me they couldn’t give me a letter for immigration because they are a private clinic and not a big hospital.

Is there any truth to this? Have there been cases of people getting refused for the DTV visa for not having their treatments scheduled at a big hospital?

Thank you!

I successfully applied for the DTV in Taipei and have the visa in my passport. However, I just noticed that they have listed “TWN” (Taiwanese) as my nationality, which is incorrect. I have already left Taiwan. Can this be fixed in Thailand? I would prefer not to have to travel back to Taiwan just for this.

hi hope someone can help me and my thai partner looking to get married in future and looking how to get the translation document and where or how to get the certificate sorted after done the affidavit thank you

Hello community! My apologies since this is not visa related but does anyone have contact for translating and legalizing Thai birth certificate in Bangkok or Pathum Thank areas? Thanks in advance 🙏🏽😊

Hi Everyone. There has been lots of assumptions regarding this visa. You should be aware that Ministry of Foreign affairs who came up with this visa are not necessarily the party involved in enforcing how immigration works. That is up to Thai Immigration. In practice, immigration matters and how it is implemented is entirely up to immigration.

For example, there’s talk of extensions. Yes it is intended by ministry of FA for this visa to be renewable while in Thailand, mechanisms of how this will work will be ultimately be down to Immigration. So they may ask for relevant documents again at time of renewal or even re-entry. Got this visa with soft power? Will you be able to re-enter after 180 days or renew when that Maui Thai class is long finished? Who knows. Best answer you should accept at this point is that no one knows. Not even immigration.

Recommendations for getting official translations done? Thai to English. TIA

An interview with a representative from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr Naruchai Ninnad.

Anyone know if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs requires an appointment? I do not see a way to make one. Thanks!
