What is the process and timeline for applying for a Non-O visa in Thailand while planning to move to Phuket?

Dana *******

You need at least 15 days validity left on your "30-days exempt". If you just arrived to Thailand and apply for the "Non-O" during the first 2 weeks, you could probably skip the "30-days extension"...

Yes. Arrived on a "Visa Exempt" in Bangkok, applied for an "30-days extension" in Bangkok, then moved to Jomtien, applied for a "3-months non-O" in Jomtien, and then a "Year Extension based on Retirement" in Jomtien. All went very well. Just have patience. The BKB branch in Jomtien issued the bank letter, no problem. ;-)

I have my account in a Bangkok Bank branch in Bangkok. Yet the Bangkok Bank branch in Jomtien did the letter (stating balance) for me, no problem.

@Robert *******

I did exactly the same ! Indeed, they charged me 2'000 THB instead of 1'900. But I was quite happy to let it go ! 😄

That is very little compared to the 20'000 - 30'000 baths that an agent might ask. Read again : I wrote that I saved 20'000 to 30'000 baths...
