Just heard they are about to confirm the covid extension until 30 th march. They may help you buy time.

When applying for a Non O do your initially have to state the reason or is that at the extension stage?

not what my immigration told me last week when I got stamped in until end of March. I will check with Siam Legal and if true all my prayers will answered. The one agency who still stay in touch with me on line app state it cannot be done. I will get back you in that one.

retirement. I have tried agencies and as soon as you tell them you have the 800 thousand already or ask if you can continue doing 90 reports at your local immigration they suddenly turn round and say they cannot do it. So that confirmed to me that what they themselves are doing isn't legal. I am stuck in limbo until they either fully open the borders or relax the rules.

please phone them and confirm. I spent weeks in communication with them and they simply wouldn't answer the question. So when it came time to handing the money over they told me and I declined the visa. I now need a Non O that I cannot apply for inside the country. I need again to leave and come back on a tourist visa and can do it. Siam Legal also confirmed all this. Please phone them and check for yourself.

@Hettie ******

what visa are you currently on?

my friend had the 5 year Elite. He then for the 20 year one and was told he had to fly out and come back to get his new visa. You need to phone Thailand elite and confirm exactly which visas are and are not before making such statements. I was told the same.

They will only issue inside the country if you are a certain visa type. If you're a tourist visa then no problem and done at CW in Bangkok.

My friend just did it who is Thai and they put her up in a wonderful hotel all fully paid for.
