Which immigration office is better for visa extensions in Thailand, Chiang Mai or Phuket?

Roberto *********

Make a booking wherever you are and you won't have to wait. Remember also they may request TM30 to ensure you are at the immigration office which aligns with your registered address

Can I show my visa on my phone upon arrival in Bangkok if I cannot print it out?

Roberto *********

Are you flying direct? If you have a stopover somewhere and the visa has arrived, get it printed at your transit airport

Can I still use my O-A visa for re-entry after missing the health insurance renewal deadline?

Roberto *********

@Bob *********

He can extend himself. Doesn't need an agent. What he's talking about is the second "free" year you get with the OA. He's missed the boat. No agent can fix that

@Bob *********

There's no one can help him with the OA visa. He missed the cut out for the free second year. The visa is done. He has to start from scratch

Roberto *********

The visa is done so no more entries on it. You won't get the free second year now. If you don't want to put the 800k in the bank you'll have to go back to your home country and start again

What is the process for obtaining a 90-day stamp from Immigration Patong?

Roberto *********

@Mark ******

In fairness if you're asking a question it's best to be clear what you're asking about. Some people go to get a non-O 90-day visa. Problem is so many people like to play guessing games

What's a 90-day stamp? If you mean 90-day report, there's no stamp

Do I need to get a visa extension if I arrived in Thailand on April 1st and have a return flight on May 6th?

Roberto *********

@Hans ******

Goalposts haven't moved for ages. If you're stamped in for 30 days, then 30 days it is. I don't know why people have trouble with this

Will my visa history affect my future entry into Thailand on an education visa?

@Todd ********

Actually it's RTP, and as for the Immigration Bureau having a voice of its own, stop kidding yourself. Every statement from the Immigration Bureau comes through Surachate ("Big Joke") who just happens to be Deputy National Police Chief. And you reckon I don't understand basics? Wow!

Immigration Bureau is part of Royal Thai Police. I've got the basics thanks Todd. You clearly need more work! 🤣
