You applied for and got a 30 day EXTENSION of your stay, not a cut short your current stay and get a new 30 days

NO it is not, the TM30 is the form used to register a foreigner residing on an address, which has to be done in 24 hours after arrival.

But if you mean that you need to show that you reside on an address than the answer is yes.

IT is never a madhouse in Krabi as it is not as busy with foreigners as Bangkok.

You need:

Application form (you get at the office)

Copy ID page passport.

Copy visa page page passport (if you used a visa and/or copy print out visa)

Copy address registration

1 passport picture

Fee 1.900 Thb.

Blue inked pen to fill in the form and sign the copies.

As long as your visa is still valid you will get 1 year of stay, time enough to arrange all the needs to meet the requirements next year

As the time slots are based on handling 1 application at the time, I would suggest to book 3 appointments.

It is all in the game, to avoid the stress and hassle, get the correct visa for your long term stay in Thailand, even when you do not like the set requirements. After all, it is YOU who want to live in the land of smiles.

It is all in the name.

With a Non Imm O visa you only get 90 days of stay inside the Kingdom and have to leave to obain a new 90 day period of the visa is multiple entry OR apply for a new visa.

BUT if you got this visa, entered Thailand and visited the Immigration Office to get a new big stamp with the text:

"Extension of Stay permitted up to xx/xx/xx" which is valid for 1 year, you have to report that you are 90 days inside the Kingdom.

Please look in your passport and tell us which one you have OR just show us a picture without any personal details to help you out correctly.

IF it is the big stamp Extension of Stay, you can use this on line system

To make life easy, there are no travel dates on the visa.

a Single Entry Visa is valid from the date it is issued until 90 days later.

a Multiple Entry Visa is valid from the date is is issued until 365 days later.

There are some long term visa with are even valid for 5, 10 or 20 years.

@Ang ****

a Tourist visa gives you 60 days of admitted to stay. You can keep this period active when travel abroad by buying a Re-Entry Permit.

@Daniel ****

You can buy a Re-Entry Permit but be aware that does not give you extra days, on return you will get the same Admitted until day as you got on your first entry
