What was the reason for the Non O? If it was marriage to a Thai national then the first extension has to be for the same reason. 400k in a Thai bank.

Actually it’s the same amount if you want to change the next year for having a Thai child.

Visit your local immigration to ask about the requirements to do so.

You can apply at the airport when you fly out. Or spend a few hours at CW and apply there.

It’s an arrival card. What’s the issue?
Stuart *********
Yes, but unless you’re planning to leave 4 times during the 3 months it may be worth just getting single entry when needed.

You’ve picked up old information from somewhere. Bangkok used to have that rule where you needed to have done a 90 day report before they’d issue a COR. They stopped that quite a while ago now.

Anyone can get a COR on any visa type.

You’ll need a copy of your passport data page, a copy of your latest entry stamp, a print of your DTV Visa, a passport photo and a printed TM30.

If you’ve been in Thailand for 90 days then you will have needed to file a 90 day report.

You’ll apply in the old 101 office which is the entrance to the left of the main staircase.

[edit] Forgot to mention they’ll charge 500 baht if you want it same day. Free if you wait 7 days.

I can’t say for sure but I believe it may be inter government departments having issues with each other.

It’s not going to happen. Well to be fair it has happened in the past for a very small handful of people, but my guess is they won’t try again.

Immigration don’t want to do the extension so will do anything to make it almost impossible to do.

If you want to make 6 or 7 trips to immigration to actually achieve an extension then go ahead and try.

Otherwise do yourself a favour and visit KL for a weekend or even fly there in the morning and return the same afternoon for a new 180 day stamp.

Alternatively drive to Ranong and get the speedboat across to Myanmar and come back in 30 minutes.
