A Non O visa is valid for 90 days from the date of issue. It’s irrelevant of what date you intend to travel to Thailand.

When you arrive on you will be given 90 days on arrival.

You can ask

@Bra****

but I’m guessing he’ll state the same.

That’s entirely dependent on the embassy or consulate you use.

Typical turn around times for London are about 3-5 days. US consulates are about a week. France and Germany are about 3 years (well not exactly but it feels that long). Other embassies could be different.

Not really sure of your point here. There may be people that do that.

There won’t be a problem about not having an exit stamp as they are aware of the “automatic gate” system.

No one can say if you’d have an issue re-entering Thailand as that’s up to the individual immigration officer but it’s highly unlikely that they’d have any issue with those dates.

They’re on the look out for repeat entries after an extension which could mean you’re trying to stay in Thailand without a correct visa.

Online here.

The requirement for the 500k being in a bank is dependent on the specific embassy/consulate you’d use. That’s why you’re seeing different comments.

I don’t know about the “sponsorship” option so I’ll let others advise.

The clue is in the name. Thailand Digital Arrival Card.

It’s for when you arrive in Thailand on or after May 1st.

If you’re already here it’s irrelevant. You don’t need to fill one out as you are not arriving into Thailand.

Some offices won’t accept joint accounts at all. Those that do require double the amount as they see it as half yours and half the other holders.

Since January all Thai embassies or consulates use the evisa system. You cannot get a sticker visa anymore (other than Elite).

You can only do it up to 3 days prior to arrival. So for you the earliest would be 16th.
