Does anyone have an up to date, English language list of requirements needed by Jomtien immigration for a 1 year extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai?

I've just been in and all they have is a list printed in Thai which seems strange as surely everyone who wants to apply will be non Thai?

With the best will in the world this isn't something my wife could confidently deal with.

Hello everybody! Can anybody tell me if I need get two copies of Certificate of Residence from the immigration to get Thai Drivers License for both motorbike and car? Or I have to get only one Certificate of Residence and then can just photocopy it?

I'm aware that I need to prepare two sets of every documents if I'm applying for both motorbike and car driving licenses. But the Certificate of Residency part is confusing to me. Do I need to get two original Certificate of Residence from immigration?

Also, what are the documents required to get the Certificate of Residence? I have my TM30, Passport copies and rent agreement. Do I need anything else? Is there any fees involved?

Just for reference, I'll be applying at Jomtien Immigration, Pattaya.

Any info will be helpful. Thank you.

I went to jomtien immigration today to ask about the deposits coding issues. Spoke to the officer at window 8. He basically said bangkok bank isnt entirely cooperative with immigration anymore. He said quote. Kasikorn better. Im going tomorrow to the Kasikorn international desk on Pattaya klang to request a credit advice letter on my September transfer, was quoted 200 baht. does kasikorn code their incoming wise transfers as international? I will inquire about that before opening a new account.

I used to have an OA retirement visa but it expired in 2020. Since then I've had 60 day tourist visas and this year just used the 60 day visa extension.

I'm now considering applying in London for an O visa, going to Thailand and applying at the Jomtien Immigration office for a 1 year extension for the purpose of retirement. I'd make some return trips back to the UK during that year.

Four questions. 1. Would the Thai Embassy in London issue an O visa for this purpose on proof of sufficient finance in the UK?

2. Can I place the necessary money in a Thai bank account say 2 months before arrival in Thailand and so qualify for the visa extension very soon after arrival in Thailand?

3. What is the minimum time I have to wait after arrival in Thailand before I can apply for the 1 year extension? I ask because the O visa is valid for 3 months but I need to be back in the UK after less than 2 months.

4. Doing things this way are a police check, medical certificate and 1 year medical insurance unnecessary?

Will be very grateful for any advice.

Many thanks,

Peter Owen

Good morning, so in 2 months and 3 weeks I am going to apply for the retirement visa non-o in Jomtien as I will reach 50 yo.

I have the 800k sent by international transfer that have been sitting for years in my Bangkok bank account.

My first question is what needs to be done with the bank in advance. I am going to update the bankbook at the machine every months from now.

Do I have to get a letter certifying the funds have been there for a while with the bank as well ? Should I wait the day after I am 50 yo to ask for this letter?

Any other administrative stuff that need to be done long before applying for the visa. Thanks

Hi anyone got the link for jontien immigration online booking system pls 🙏

Hello

Has anyone recently extended their retirement visa using the 12 monthly payment method ? Before I get trolled I do not have 800,000 in my Thai bank account but have regular monthly payments from the UK into my account all exceeding 65,000 baht.

Any advice appreciated. Using the immigration office in Jomtien

Thanks in advance

When you can get your first EOS at earliest when you are on a Non O visa?

Can I get it already e.g. after 40 days after entering Thailand?

Specially asking for Pattaya immigration

Does anyone know what days immigration Jomtien will be closed for songkran, or more importantly what is the 1st day they reopen?

Hi, anyone know what format is preferred for the family photos, when applying for the marriage visa extension. I read someone needed to print them on photo paper then attach them to a4 sheetw.

Also any details for the pics I need to know, dress, style etc. I know the rooms and places we need.

I'm doing it at Jomtien immigration, and have their info sheet but the office information doesn't give details on these specifics.

I'm trying to avoid getting sent away when we apply because the bank letters have to be from the day and it's all super time consuming. Thanks
