Just step by step, you can do it...we did, so can you. Good luck

We had to show a return ticket as we were coming to Thailand on visa waiver. We flew from HCMC to Singapore (transit country)....the return ticket sbowed Singapore....cost 120usd. This is called a burn ticket. This was our proof of onward travel....and we got our COE, no problem.

Canada as well.

Canada.....so high on self esteem, so low on substance. From this side of the planet Canada looks and sounds like a shithole country.

Michael, you can get an O visa...in Thailand...YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GET IT IN AMERICA, that is what I'm trying to tell you! You are talking about an OA Visa which is only obtainable outside Thailand, but O VISA is obtainable inside Thailand. .....so long as you meet their requirements.

Michael, have you thought about this. There are 2 options for you to consider.

1. Enter Thailand on regular tourist visa. This will give you 2 months. You get this from Thai Embassy.

2. Go to Thailand on a visa waiver. This will give you 45 days (includes quarantine time). For both scenarios you need COE.

We are planning on using #2 to enter Thailand.....if flights are available. Once we get back in we will apply for O retirement visa...If you are goung for a retirement visa you need to do this asap...once in.

SEE YOU BACK IN THAILAND........but we are hoping VN willextend once again.

We also do not want to go back to the west......
