Hi!

I have a 90 day non O visa.

Do I need to open the bank account in same city or area as the one I want to apply for the 12 month extension at?

Or would it work to open one account in Koh Samui, for example, so I can deposit funds for seasoning. Then when I get up to Chiang Mai later, open another acount in a branch there?

I am planning to base myself in Chiang Mai but considering spending time on the islands when I first arrive in Thailand. I want to get the account open + funds seasoning asap.

Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏

Hi when filling the TDAC card online can it be done before the 3day arrival date as I tried and it would not let me. Also do you still have to register with immigration when you arrive?

Hi,

I just got my Non B visa Single Entry. Is there anything I need to do next? Like register where I live? Currently living in someone's house.

Thank you

Re-registered my address in Phuket Town this morning. Arrived in BKK on Sept 25th and spent four nights in a hotel before returning to Phuket on Sat 29th. Went to report on Mon 1st but was missing one form (PoA) and was to return next day. That night became very ill with flu, managed to get to hospital on Thurs 4th. Asked for medical certificate which specified number of days I’d been ill plus how many to recuperate. Returned to immigration today, immigration officer was going to fine me, telling me it was strictly 24 hours. I politely explained, gave the medical certificate and all was forgiven. No fine, registration received OK.

I hope this information will be of some use to members of this group

I have a question regarding not visa, but renting a condo. From what I read and heard from other expats, it's responsibility of apartment owner to register us in immigration office. We were sure that the she did it, but when we asked, it turned out that she didn't.

Now she is trying to tell us that it is our responsibility to register ourselves. We try to convince her that she can have problems, not us, but it doesn't work. Do you know any Thai website where it is explained clearly so we can send her a link (her English is not perfect)? Or maybe we're wrong and this is our responsibility?
