My in-laws just retired to Thailand, they just got the 90 day non-immigrant O visa, the stamp on the passport and the visa pdf. They also got a certificate of residency from the police station and have been trying to open a bank account. They have gone to almost every bank in koh samui and no branch have accepted the application for a bank account, despite having all the required documents. They always make up something or just straight don’t want to do it. Has anyone has the same issue? What do you recommend?
Hi has anyone extended their DTV visa in Kho samui at the 180 day point. Specifically looking for documentation they require. Looked at requirements on line but would like some clarification in case they need something not listed. Thanks.
My visa is up at the end of July so I was looking into extending my 180 days but it seems from all the fb groups and reddit its pretty painful and almost like trying to reapply again with all the updated paperwork. So I think people are just opting to leave Thailand and come back again which seems like an easier choice but a bit more expensive. Has anyone done the DTV visa run from Koh Samui to Singapore yet? Every time I go to Samui I just walk off the plane I have never seen the Visa entry area? lol
So don't be an idiot like me. I went to immigration only Koh Phangan to request a visa extension armed with all the documents, only to find out you now need an appointment! I had no idea. I am now going to Koh Samui for an appointment at 9:00 am tomorrow. No appointments available in Koh Phangan. They told me to go and do a visa run!
