You can still use it until the Valid Until date, then go to plan B after it expires. Remember, if you leave Thailand and return just before the Valid Until date, you will get another 90 days.

The whole process can be done online but I guess this may depend which Imm. office you are using.

Much easier if you fly somewhere.

I use 2 uk PP's one for Thai non O (Thai spouse) and one for Vietnam (TRC). In and out of Thailand on 1 PP and in and out of VN on other PP. I also get my non O visa from the hcmc consulate on the PP that doesn't have the VN entry stamps and TRC.

It could be an option for you if you can't get it done at land borders.

... only restriction is the 50 year minimum age ... for which of course the OP qualifies.

@Chris *********

.. you also need the TM6 landing card number which you obviously don't get ... until you land, and is entered into the system by the IO.

@Maurice ******

... yeah, the washing machine! 😂😂

In short ... YES, every page.

Mark Tildsley ... thats where I got my last ones but no need now cuz I've had yellow book for a couple of years so don't need certificate.

@Mark *********

... get a certificate of residency from Immigration and yes you need it to get a DL. Not sure what all you need but certainly a copy of the lease agreement but best to check online the full requirements and of course you will need to have done your TM30 prior to visiting imm or you will get fined.

Try Saigon, nice place to "explore" and the consulate there is walk in and pretty trouble free ... in my personal experience.
