@Pui ****
saying "our visa" relates to the visa the person writing the post has.

@Nongnuch *******
which is what I said. The permitted stay . . relevant to the visa they applied for.

@Ralph *******
that's because people say they have a visa, when they are already in Thailand. Whereas the visa has actually been used to enter and is finished. . They no longer have a visa but a permitted stay. It's all about understanding terminology.
Lynnette *******
The visa validity gives you a window of time to arrive. When you enter you get stamped in for the length of permitted stay.

I'm guessing you've never travelled and had travel insurance before. People generally take it out soon as they book their flight so everything is covered from day one. *Edit. Yes a 7 month policy at home might take a bit of a search.
Lynnette *******
Most people get travel insurance at home before they leave, then flight, delay, cancellation, baggage, health, money, passport etc all covered.

you can't do that at immigration. Read Stuart's reply.

It's not hard to figure. Get non immigrant visa from embassy, enter country, open thai bank account, deposit funds, get 12 month extension. 👍

you apply on line. Then do the 12 month extension of stay based in retirement in country for 1,900 tb.
