I got my wife to print out a letter saying I was staying with her and our daughter. Got her to scan it with her ID card on the bottom and it was rejected.

Was told it needed to be hand written, still with her ID card on it.

Seems different rules apply all the time

Samut Prakhan ask for 2 months before you apply and then the 1 month under consideration period.3 months in total

I always update the bank book the day I go back after the consideration.

Don’t take a bank letter, but this is Samut Prakhan immigration

Make sure you also have a ticket out of the country, and 20,000 baht or equivalent in cash.

Don’t give the IO any more reasons for denial

@David *****

Been denied access twice, Oman and Gulf air despite having a valid Non O Extension.

its the airline responsibility to fly u back at their cost so they do check.

i signed a waiver saying i would purchase another ticket with the carrier if denied.

Just to add, some IO offices, Samut Prakhan for sure require the 400k 2 months before.

And a further month whilst it’s under consideration l. They check when you get the approval

I live over 1 hour from my IO.

They accepted a hand drawn map from the main road to my house.

You need to ask them exactly what they want.

Hand drawn from office to apt,

Hand drawn from main road to apt,

Google maps

Just flown this route with Scoot, stayed 3 hours in Singapore. Though I do have a Non O visa.

Overstay should not cause a problem. It’s only when you get picked up by police that they can then deport you.

As for coming back next day, that is down the IO. If he thinks you are living here and border bouncing to stay here, eventually they will ask questions

i use the 400k in my own name bank account. They also require a cert from the local amphor stating we are still married.

Along with all the other docs

Samut Prakhan don’t care where the money came from. All they want is a letter less than 7 days old saying I’ve had 400k in.

They also require the bank book to be updated the day you apply with a photocopy
