Perth Thai consulate is permanently closed. All visas are now applied for using the Evisa system in Australia.

Canada now only uses Evisa application.

And yes, Evisa only issues single entry Non O visas

Frederick Hamblin you start here mate.

It is done via VFS at the Trendy building, Soi 11, Bangkok.

It's now up to a 13 week wait.

If your visa is expired or expiring, you will be on overstay

@Frederick ********

the UK don't post passports out.

If you do it yourself, you need to make 2 trips to Bangkok.

One to drop of the paperwork and then back there again once the new passport arrives.

@Pat ********

they won't issue visas outside of 3 months before traveling. I guess it would be the same time value applying for the COE

You are too early booking a COE if your not traveling until October

@Darren ******

yes your right. I haven't looked for a good few years.

There are tax advantages though for the super rich....that isn't me 😂

I would like to do the same rather than paying UK tax at 40% on related earnings.

It's impossible other than being granted non domicile, in the UK. All sounds good? It isn't as you first need to be granted 'domicile' in your chosen country, and give up your passport etc and Thailand don't do that on demand.

Try somewhere in West Africa. It won't be happening here.
