How can I obtain my OA visa from South Africa if my police clearance certificate is delayed?

Ben ****

You are not from the UK, US or Australia. You might be able to get an income statement from your embassy instead of needing 800k in a Thai bank.

Contact the German embassy in Thailand if they can issue an income certificate so you don't need to keep money in a Thai bank.

How can I apply for a Non-O (Retirement) visa in Thailand after entering with a visa exempt status?

Ben ****

it's the other way round, only a few embassies don't issue an income declaration/affidavit (US, UK, AU). However it does affect most of the foreigners.

What are the requirements for a German citizen applying for an O-A Visa in Jakarta?

Ben ****

As a German citizen you might be able to get an income declaration from your embassy to extend your stay to one year. Then you don't need money in the bank.

Maybe others can tell you what visa is best to enter the country so you can extend your stay later.

for my yellow book they wanted the 'translation', but they meant transcription of my and my parents name, place and date of birth. I just transcribed them myself. They also asked for marriage certificate, which I don't have.
