Just a heads up,

Upon leaving BKK recently on a non O visa with a re-entry stamp. I was directed away from the e gates to an immigration officer by staff, after showing her the stamp.

Although I intended to go that route anyway, I have no idea if it makes any difference just wanted to share it.

I'm seeing to apply for non O in your own Country. I'm seeing apply online. You can set the location of your lap top to anywhere? So why pay for a trip to your native country.

If you ever have the situation that you enter formalities with banks immigration etc and during their deliberations you get a new passport, do keep photocopies of the original or the old one. They dont care if its you and you are the same person and the old passport is no longer valid they want photocopy of the old one.

Luckily I had a copy of the old one.

Also dont.think a stamp stating you have your visa in the passport is proof enough you have a visa they want the original copy of letter you presented at immigration when you arrived so they can really get down to it 😉

I guess its just crossing the Ts and dotting the i to the nenth degree.

Hi, I’m on a Non-O visa. I usually keep 400k in my bank account throughout the year and use the surplus amount for my expenses. This year, I received a 1-month extension about 10 days ago, and I need to go again on December 1st for the 11-month extension.

The thing is, I want to withdraw around 50k, which will reduce the balance below 400k. Will this cause any problem when I go for my 11-month extension?

As far as I know, immigration asks for all documents during the 1-month extension, but for the 11-month extension, we only need to bring the passport. I just need some proper guidance on this issue. Thank you.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share my entrance to Thailand as I would read this group and I am a big worrier 🤣

Straight through at Bangkok, no questions. I handed my passport, A5 laminated DTV, my boarding pass and had my TDAC on my phone ready to show. We are from England and Mexico

Is there a reentry permit desk at Don Mueang?

Must I print out the DTV visa PDF I received or can I just show it from the phone?

When I did for TDAC then I only showed from my phone at the immigration and they were fine with that.

Question about 90 days report

I usually applied 90 days report via Online previously with ED visa. Then, I cancelled ED visa and went back to Thailand with DTV a month ago, just 30 days in Thailand obviously.

However, the immigration send email to notify for 90 days report.

Do I need to report now or do I need to wait till 90 days after re-entry?

Hi all , I’m just beginning my visa research process. I would like to apply for non o retirement based on 800000 baht in Thai bank account. Will be applying from Oz , I understand you get initial 90 days, then apply for 1 year extension, what happens after that,, ? Do you continue to apply for yearly extensions ? Also have things changed & is health insurance a must? ? Tia 🙏

Using the TM.7 application form can the DTV be extended once per entry stay for up to an extra 180 days, which means you could stay in Thailand for a total of up to 360 days (180 days + 180 days) without leaving Thailand?
