Why can't you just get a Tourist Visa to cover your 30 days? Also carry B cash, your flight ticket out of Thailand and proof of accomodation when entering.

I would bet you've never had a VoA which costs you 2000B in the airport "on arrival" then gets you a 15 day entry stamp at Immigration

@Peter ******

keep digging 555

@Po***

You either asked the wrong question or CHATGPT is crap, maybe both regarding Immigration issues ;)

@Jim ******

Depending on the Non-O you start with you may need to apply for your 12 month Extension of Stay with 2 or 3 weeks left on your original 90 day entry stamp. Check with the Immigration Office you will be aplying at (when you get your re-entry permit maybe) what their requirements are well before you exit the country to be aware what will be required on your return.

@Polat ******

You've already been told no. Get the money deposited ASAP so that 2 months after (seasoning) you can apply for your 12 month Extension of Stay (not a Visa)

@John *************

The DTV is an actual visa ;)

@Sue *********

25 minutes and it only took that long because the IO had never seen the online TM30 before

@Kevin **********

that's correct after the first year but not what you said (400k)

Just use the first address you will stay at on arrival in Thailand whether it is a hotel or a private house
