@Jeremy ****************
well done mate! That's got to be a weight off your shoulders!

I don't know to be honest, only my personal situation . I'd actually asked our landlady who lives close to us, to redo the lease in joint names to try and stop any problems arising. I wasn't expecting the issue of the owners tabien baan and ID and so that took me by surprise and another visit!

Yes that's just a promise you will be a good boy and you need to sign to say you understand the penalties for overstaying. Don't stress it mate!

they will make you register yourself while you're there. They charged us 800baht!

Also take the owners ID copy and housebook if you're renting. This was a big issue for us and took a little sorting!

Take your wife! I did my 60 in April then got my year extension last month. They sent me home the first time because my wife wasn't with me. Luckily, we only live 5km away!

ok..but you still need to get your new passport updated with this info at thai consulate...if you simply enter without doing this..the new passporr will not show the details so will end up with a visa exempt stamp

no...i had a non o multi entry based on marriage. Not an extension. when i picked up my new passport from trendy, they gave me a letter which i took to chang wattana. they then stamped the info in the new passport written in a big red stamp..and that was it. Then then asked me to carry both when crossing a border just to be safe. ill do some pics to show you romorrow. i might even still have the letter

ill just add that i was told to travel with both passports in case thai immigration asked to see the old original visa sticker.

thats wrong Steve. i had a visa transferred to new passport in thailand. I renewed my passport and when i collected a new one i was given a letter to take to chang wattana where they transferred it.

As the is currently in The US id suggest a trip to the local thai consualte would be his most prudent move.
