Ah, I understand.

Just as a suggestion, you could go to The Royal Thai embassy in Savannakhet, Laos, and apply for Non Imm Type O based on Marriage. You get a 90 day visa, with no requirement for proof of funds.

Thus would give you time to get the funds back in place, and then extend the 90 day visa for 1 year again.

Now by appointment only at the Royal Thai embassy in Savannakhet, book online,

Just a simple question. Why didn't you extend your Non Imm O visa again ? Even if you needed to leave Thailand for a while, it's still valid so long as it hasn't expired.

I always show the immigration office my visa when I enter, when I pass my passport to them. It makes sure they cannot miss the point and just give a 30 day stamp. And check that they did give the correct date, before leaving the counter. So far this has worked for me, and reading the advice and comments here, saves alot of time and trouble later.

Hi Ellie. Yes I understand that. The lady could get a 7, 14 or 21 day extension. My suggestion was to possibly make it easier for her, without the uncertainty of what length of extension she might get - and serve the purpose of her desire to stay on in Thailand for another 2 months, or more.

I have been in the same situation myself, so I do understand it.

Hi Daisy. It's most likely easier for you to go to the Royal Thai Embassy in Vientiane or Savannakhet on 22nd February and apply for a single entry 60 day Tourist visa. It costs 1,000 baht This can be extended for another 30 days at your local Immigration office in Thailand for the cost of 1,900 baht. if you need a bit more time in Thailand beyond 2 months.

Just some advice, Savannakhet is more difficult to get to, but you do not need to book an appointment to go to the Thai Embassy for the visa application, and you get your visa back the next day - avoid going to the Embassy on Mondays - it is very busy. Tuesdays, hardly any queue.

Vientiane is easier to get to, as you can fly there, but you have to book an appointment in advance via the Royal Thai Embassy of Vientiane website. Also you can only pick up your passport 2 days later.

If you are a UK citizen, my advice, start your application for your new passport with alot of time to spare. It took me 3 months this year to get my new passport via the Thailand passport office in Bangkok, from HM Passport Office in Liverpool.

Tod, you have my vote to stay on doing what you love, and helping expats like myself with in valuable advice.

Whoever it is targeting you probably has no legal grounds whatsoever to report you to the authorities. Bitter feelings and resentment do not stand up in a court of law.

Block the idiot from the group and personal messenger.

I hope you are OK, and this is not getting you down

I just did this myself. It's very straightforward. Copy of old passport ID page, and last entry stamp page. Copy of new passport ID page. Fill in the "transfer stamp to new passport" form and hand it into your immigration office, together with your old and new passport. No letter from your embassy is required. Maybe up to 500 baht fee is requested. Just pay it and go.

ah, OK. In Asia this can be done. Maybe you could go to Veitnam for a few days before going to Thailand, because I do know that you can go to the Thai Embassy in Ho Chi Minh or Hanoi. Just a suggestion

your can get a 60 day Tourist visa in the Royal Thai embassy in Paris. Download the application documents, and fill in before you go to the embassy. You should be able to get your visas in 2 to 3 days. If you want to stay in Thailand longer than 60 days you can extend the visa for 30 days, in any Thai immigration office in the country.
