looking for advise here. Perhaps others have some experience on this. My wife is Thai and I had her come to the USA under the K1 Visa. Now we plan to travel back to Thailand and live there moving forward. This means I will be under an Non-O visa when I travel back. I am getting all documents in the USA to make this a smooth transition. From a documentation stand point is there any thing I should look out for. I plan on bringing over several authenticated copies of the marriage certificate from the The Thai Embassy in USA to Thailand.

When renewing the Visa on yearly basis what should I expect?

It looks like exit and re-enter on this Visa is permitted. What does that process look like?

Do I need to have a living location such as a condo locked in prior to landing? Is a hotel sufficient?

Hi all. This might be a strange question but what is the minimum age of solo application for DTV? Is it 16,18 or even 21? Please let me know because there is no really confident answer on the internet. Thank you.

Hi Guys,

Quick question: I arrived in Thailand with a non imm O visa and then applied for my retirement visa. Now the 90 day starts from the arrival date or from the date of my retirement visa stamp? Thank you 🙏

if the stamp in your passport says:

admitted until xxx

does that mean, you can stay in Thailand until xxx 23:59 or does it mean: leave before xxx?

A friend of mine was charged by Immigration with overstay 500 THB for one day.

I need some advice on the Thailand digital arrival card. I've been in Thailand forl a retirement is and I have a multiple reentry permit. Currently I'm out of Thailand and planning to return this weekend. On the form it wants to know what my exit ticket details are. I don't know after I enter into Thailand when I will leave again. What do I do? Thanks!

Hello everyone:)

So I have a tourist stamp/visa etc. Previously I made here my temporary DL, now i am back and i try to exchange/extend it to the 5y. I know some places are not giving the 5y, some other they do. I collected all the docus(health and immigration certificate). I would like to know if any of you know the current situation in Ko Samui,Krabi,Phuket. I tried in Surat Thani Town, but they bounced me back with the 2 years etcetc. Thank you

Im reading a lot about immigration clamping down on long stays.

Im a Uk passport holder and have been out of Thailand for four plus months now.

I have already had one 60 day visa exempt and 30 day extension totalling 90 days last time I came earlier in the year.

I also did the same and the end of last year so that took me upto mid January this year.

My logic is I’ve been out for nearly five months I should be fine but I’m concerned about being turned away.

Thanks for any advice in advance.

I’m getting really confused by the ED VISA I’ve been emailing a few schools for information etc .. and I was aware of that every 90days you have to go to immigration and extend your Ed visa to keep studying .

But one school wrote back to me and said that you have to leave Thailand after 6 months and apply again !!! This is the first time I’ve heard them say this …

I'm kinda confused about the 90 day reporting requirement. If I never stay in the country more than 90 days, does that mean I don't need to do it? What if I signed a lease for an apartment?

Without naming any particular agent or quoting exact prices, it's obvious that using an agent's help to get a one year extension based on marriage is far more expensive than retirement extension, even if you use your own money and you do all the running around getting all the required paperwork together. Why?

Please, save yourselves a few seconds of your valuable time and don't type "do it yourself" it's just a question that I've wondered about for a while.
