Dear experts,

I am Vietnamese, I arrived in Thailand with visa exemption for 60 days (Sept 25 to Nov 11). I have few questions below:

1. I want to apply visa extension, but I don’t know how many days I can extend (30 days or 60 days)? Or do you have any official document about that please share.

2. The extension valid from the date it approved or from the date my visa extemption expired. For example, if I apply for visa extension on Oct 15 (via e-extension), and get approve after 7 days and get the stamp on Oct 22. So the extension (30 days or 60 days) start from Oct 22 or start from Nov 11?

3. This is the first time I do it, so I wonder, is there any situation that the immigration reject the extension?

Thank you!

Is there any logic to what time of day appointments are released on the Bangkok Immigration queue booking website? [members only]/ I know the max you can book ahead is 30 days, most of the time it shows everything full.

Hello to everyone here,

Does someone any experiences with The pension certificate from the German embassy in Bangkok? My pension will start from July 2024 .

I have the 90 days non immigration O visa and will start the process of extension to a one year retirement visa in Thailand.

I will arrive in Bangkok on 4th of May.

My question is:

Am I eligible to get the 1 year visa with my pension starting in July?

Or should I put 800 000 Baht just from very beginning on a Thai bank account which I will open on my first days there and wait 2 monts and then go to immigration office and apply for the 1 year Visa?

I actually wanted to use the combination method for my financial evidence , my pension+ the rest of 800 000 Baht on the account= together 800 000 Baht .

I would be very happy to get your advice . I think German speaking members of this forum may help me more.

Thank you in advance

Went to Kanchanaburi IB for first ever 30 day extension Tuesday 9th. It took less that thirty minutes. They had examples of TM.7 which was very helpful. They checked GF tm30 and she needed one small change on her tm30 record. They checked my tm 30 record everything was ok. I needed application(blue ink), passport, visa (METV), picture of tm 30 page where GF added me, passport like photo and 1900 Baht.

If you have a visa in your paspoort but you have to renew your paspoort because the paspoort is getting expiratie (so there is no visa in your paspoort anymore)

Do you have to go to the immigration for putting the visa/stamps back in your paspoort?

I know it's also in the computer but it a immigration/policeman check in on the street they don't have a computer with them and only look in your paspoort.

I am a French citizen looking to stay in Thailand for 60 days instead of the regular 30 days. Do I need to apply online for a tourist visa, which apparently takes 5 weeks, or can I simply go to an office and get it done faster?

🙏

I need visa information for the father of a child with a Thai citizen. Can anyone help me? The baby was born. What documents do I need from the hospital? Where to apply? Can I do it while in Thailand? Thank you for all your help.

Hi, for Non “O” retirement visa, may I know why it is valid only for 3 months? Some people say the retirement visa is valid 15 months. What is the difference?

Does anyone have a cheat sheet for converting a tourist visa to Non O > Retirement extension? US passports.

And then the process for my wife who is under 50 to come in as a dependent?

I'm almost more confused after coming back from the immigration office in Bangkok. I have the money deposited, They need an official letter from Bangkok Bank stating that the money came from overseas and said I should go to the Silom branch? I went to a different branch previously and they were confused by what I was asking for.

I'm assuming that once I have the retirement extension that's when I need to leave the country with my wife and visit the embassy and apply for her dependent visa, correct?

Hi, I am from Bangladesh. I entered Thailand with a tourist visa of 2 month which will expire on 15 March. During my visit I had a doctor appointment at Bangkok Hospital. They suggested one operation. If I get a recommendation from hospital to extend my visa for operation, will it be possible to extend my visa?
