Prepare yourself, comments on Facebook can not be used to explain an Immigration Officer that questions are not allowed.

a visa is personal, no other person are covered by your visa.

They could apply for a Non Immigrant O visa based on visiting a Non Thai family member.

Children need a visa to stay inside Thailand unless they have Thai citizenship, people are told there are no fines for the children until they reach 15 years of age. No fine does not mean you are allowed to do, it means you do not need to pay when you get caught.

Children without a legal stay are illegal in Thailand and MOST insurance companies has that in their small print, which simply means they do not have to pay in case of.~

Schools do not accept children without an official stay, they might offer a Non Immigrant ED visa.

In order to get a spouse visa, in better terms, the Non Immigrant O visa to visit Thai Family, you must be married by law with a Thai citizen. Common marriage, Catholic marriage, Christian Marriage, Buddhistic marriage, a big party with a person declaring you are now bride and broom does not count.

If they have hundreds of foreigners training in their facility, visit first to see how things go.

You need training, not standing in line to find a parking lot.

Not for the DTV, but it make sense to have an insurance just in case.

Doctors, hospitals and medicine are not free of charge in Thailand.

Go to a shop and get new passport pictures taken, upload one of them.

making pictures of pictures behind plastic does not work.

Anonymous participant And you have to make the report as you are 90 days inside Thailand.

That Immigration allows you to make that report between 15 days before and 7 days late if you walk into the office, or 15 days before if done by mail, or between 15 days before and due date if you do on-line, has nothing to with the fact that you are actually 90 days inside Thailand.

You report that you are 90 days inside Thailand, the moment you leave Thailand the count of being in Thailand stops. It starts on the day you enter Thailand as day number 1.

Be aware that if your make a report and get that approved, the next 90 day report date will be 90 days later than the approval date, see the date mentioned on the report, if you stay inside Thailand.

You went to a consulate and got your visa stamped?

You use this website apply for the visa, you get the visa by e-mail and on the visa is a validity date which is 10 years after the date of issue.

So you have 10 years to use this visa to enter Thailand as many times as you like.

@Tod ********

Okay, this is nonsense,

And in your first comment, you tell you can change the reason for an issued Extension of Stay.

As things may sound otherwise to you, I like to give correct information and not I type something that sound easy but is actually wrong.

You forgot in your comment the income requirements.

Again you can NOT change the reason, if you cancel the extension of stay it is cancelled and not valid, you apply for a NEW Extension of Stay with a NEW reason. NEW and NEW is not change what you had.

Lets get practical.

You can NOT change the reason of your stay after it is issued.

NO, you do not have to resign or get fired to be inside Thailand based on visiting Thai family.

Go to your local Immigration Office, get the hand out of requirements, be aware that there are multiple options to meet the financial requirement, discus this with the officer and see which option does fits you. One of them is income made in Thailand.

Than make an appointment, so you have time to get all needed documents to apply for this 1 year Extension of Stay based on visiting Thai Family.

You can do this before your current stay ends or cancel your current stay and apply for a new 1 year of stay.
