Q. how many times a year can we visit like that?

-> There is no written limit. However, approval of your entry is always at the discretion of the officer at the passport control desk upon your entry.

If your family will visit you only on holidays, it will not be a problem.

Q. I think I was told by someone you can only visit twice a year on this entry stamp?

-> That is old and incomplete information. There used to be the rule of the limit of two visa-exempt entries by land per calendar year. It has been lifted months ago. There has never been a limit on entries by air.

Your 90-day report online may be rejected, as the online reporting window is now 15 days before until 7 days before the due date.

You have 7 days after the due date to report in person at the local immigration office. You can go tomorrow or a few days later.

Check the status of your report on the system before you go to the local office. Better to cancel if it's still pending when you go, to avoid any confusion.

That’s immigration office-specific. You need to check with your local office for their policy. Some don't require TM30 or proof of address for tourism extension. Some require you to show a TM30 receipt. There are some offices that accept hotel receipts instead of TM30.

I don't recall any report saying a lease agreement was accepted for tourism extension.

, A re-entry permit doesn't have any fixed validity. It has the same expiry date with your current stamp whenever you apply for it.

A re-entry permit is to keep your current stamp (entry or extension) valid when you leave Thailand. It doesn't add any number of days to it.

Re-entry permit would be valid for one day if you apply for it one day before the current stamp validity, for example. Re-entry permit wouldn't be valid longer than the current stamp.

90-day report is to report that you are in Thailand for 90 consecutive days, you are due to report during reporting window if you are in Thailand on the 90th day.

That 7 days after is the "grace period" to report, not for counting days of staying.

You can stay or leave anytime as long as your stamp allows.

Both Australian and British passport holders will be stamped in for 60 days on visa-exempt (not visa waiver) entry now. 60-day Visa-exempt entry is eligible for a 30-day tourist extension one time per entry. You don't need to do anything special to enter Thailand on visa-exempt.

As long as you cancel your extensions properly before you leave Thailand once, usually, you wouldn't have issues entering through northeast land borders. Better to avoid the Poipet/Aranyaprathet border if you want to travel on your own.

, right. the entry stamp on Non-OA is always earlier date of 365 days or validity of your latest insurance. You need to get a new insurance before you do the last entry.

Q. i.e. show the 800k Baht in my bank book statement 2 months prior to renewal application date right?

-> yes, that's correct.

As you are on the Non-OA visa valid until July 2025, you can be stamped in for a whole new 365 days (or the same as a new insurance validity) if you leave and back to Thailand on or before the "valid until" date on your visa sticker. <- So-called the "second year" from Non-OA. Then you will not need to worry about funds for another year...

The entry stamp cannot be transferred. No need to go to the local immigration office regarding your new passport. You just leave Thailand with both passports. Then you don't need the old passport to enter Thailand after. You need only the new passport.

Unnecessary additional info.

If you want to apply for a 60-day Thai family visit extension at the end of the current stamp, you bring both passports to the local office. They will put a 60-day extension stamp on your new passport referring to the entry stamp in the old one. After this, you don't need an old passport to leave. (still a good idea to bring both to leave in case)
