My landlord was not aware that he had to notify immigration and did not declare my arrival . I need to today apply for a non o visa but there is no tm 30 to show . Will I have problems . I intend to stay at the same address
It helps to answer interview in Thai 💕 officer will be nicer 💕 first applied last year in my home country, confident with bank account n yearly income but was met with (we don't have bilateral agreements with Thai govt so we don't know what to charge)
So to rush to get in I did ED visa which helped me to learn Thai เรียนภาษาไทย but 😩 unable to travel out. So I took the plunge & one way ticket out. Lesson learnt to check on bank holidays it was a grueling 18 days wait with just an appointment date. But I think 2 points to learn from this
1) Glad I got an agent, pay 100USD to save on headache, help me check on docs & even advise me retaking photo showing my ears and no teeth to prevent rejection. They help to push along documents.
2) Sometimes you just have to push through, follow instructions, be there early not on time, before office opens (everyone had appointment at 9.30am) what a cute arrangement 😂 just persevere. Be prepared for the weather (correction : thks for helping below, so I be sure not to miss deadline reporting save fine money 😊)
l Went to immigration in Chiang Mai to do my 90 day drive thru today and I think they made a mistake. They put my next report 2 months from now instead of 3, I didn't notice till later. Plus they gave me back the form I have to give stapled to the old paper and with the old date crossed out and the new report date written with a fluorescent highlighter pen. I'm confused. I saw the car in front get the same papers given to them and I thought they had made a mistake and they had to go back but now I don't know what to think or do . Any ideas? Thanks.
Flying in Thailand soon next couple weeks. Coming in on my Passport hopefully it's still 60 days. Then get a 30 extension at Khon Kaen immigration. It's a return ticket from Thai Airways.
Sydney to Khon Kaen is where I'll be staying all the time. With the incoming online form you do 3 days before.. You fill it out and send it in. Then you get confirmation email back.
What do you do with at BBK.
Are there scanners that you use before you get to immigration or do you scan when you scan passport.
May I kindly ask for your advice — if I am already in Thailand, am I still eligible to submit a DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) application from here? Or must the application be submitted from outside the country?
Hi, I need some information, I want to extend my non-O visa for 2 months but I know we need TM30... By the way... My wife is from Buriram and we applied for TM30 on her Buriram address but now we have moved to Ayutthaya and she now lives in Demetri and I live with her... Demetri does not fill out TM30 for foreigners so I am confused how to get an extension for 2 months... Please suggest me how can I do? Can I still apply for an extension at Ayutthaya immigration based on TM30 on Buriram address? What can I do please suggest... Thanks
Apologies for another 90 day report question. If my original Non-B Visa was obtained at Chaengwattana, is it possible to do the 90 day report at another province for example Phuket immigration? Or can it only be done at Chaengwattana immigration?
Hey everyone, looking for some advice from the group.
I hold both US and Russian passports. I have a DTV visa issued to my US passport, but for this particular trip I want to enter Thailand using my Russian passport instead (visa exemption).
My reason: 16 days after arrival to Thailand I'm traveling onward to where my Russian passport works better and want to keep travel continuity.
Has anyone entered Thailand on a different passport than the one with their DTV visa? Any issues at Thai immigration? I'm prepared with explanations and all my bookings are on the Russian passport, but wondering if this will create problems.
Would appreciate any experiences or thoughts from the group. Thanks!
If anyone is interested, here is a copy of the documents required list from Chaengwattana for extension on reason of Thai wife, received May 2025. Document is dated October 2023.
PS: Last year information counter told me to get the form from section L. Yesterday section L told me to get the form from Information counter (which is much better as it's much faster).
