Can I switch from monthly income transfers to a full bank balance for a Non-O Retirement Visa extension in Thailand due to Covid-19?

Michael ********

@James *******

Yes so if he does not have the 65k a month would they not expect a 400k minimum and then the 800k 2 months before ? I am not sure how that works when switching from 65k a month method.....to the 800k / 400k method.....

Do they not look at the entire year since his last extension?

How can my wife transfer her OA visa from an old passport to a new one for re-entry to Thailand?

Michael ********

As James says, a visa can't be transferred. Carry both until it is time to get a new one, or if an extension of stay is applied for, that can be stamped in the new passport later.

Not normal for a retirement visa, but whatever they need I guess.

Michael ********

Why is it belittling to follow a process to get a visa to have the privilege of staying in Thailand? I hope they don't ask for tea money when they visit. Not sure if that happens much. Good luck.

You don't need to be the legal father to obtain a 60 day family visit extension.

Can I apply for a Thai Non-O visa for caring for my half-Thai child without my ex-girlfriend's signature?

Michael ********

@Benjamin *****

You need legal parental rights for a NON O and also for a yearly extebsion, but not sole custody.

@François ******

You may need the mother, but you DO have legal parental rights. You should be able to go with your child and apply by yourself and all of the documents, blue book for the kid, etc. Check at your local IO, as you never really know what they will want when it comes to kids.

You can't transfer a visa, but you can get your extension stamp transferred to the new passport.
