He is from Belgium

@Kool ******

so if he not wants, he still simply can get an income statement (40k฿ or more when married) from his Embassy.

With point 3 is the blue housebook

@L**

. Or if you rent, the lease contract.

? Oh ? I am no native English speaker but thought "Shaves" is what you do with a razor. "Saves" it should be I guess 🤷‍♂️ Even on google translate.

Shaves instead of saves

Only with a non imm O MULTI Entry. Normaly after a Single entry, you 'go' for a year extension.

Yurek Hunt. Almost right. From OA to O , you cannot do that in Thailand. You have to break the OA chain so to say. You have to leave Thailand and then you can get a non imm O in e.g Laos, Cambodia etc. at a Thai Embassy, OR come back to Thailand on visa exempt and buy a non imm. O in Thailand.

Nope if your home country nor Malaysia have no covid entry rules, you don't need insurance

In my opinion it also depends a bit if you want to come every year and how your timing is. I adviced an Canadian friend to come in on a non imm O and then get the year extension with re-entry, which he did. Every year he comes with more or less fixed timing. Leaves to Canada in March and comes back in october/november. So every year he can take a new year extension with re-entry permit. He can still use the affidavit which is alas not possible for you 🙄. So this possibility to think about, is also a 'money thing'. Banked money in Thailand or 12 times international transfer in your Thai bank account. Good luck !

Sorry but not understand what you want

@Tom *******

. Suppose you have a Tourist visa for 60 days in Thailand. After 20 days you have to leave because there is an emergency for e.g. a week in the Netherlands. When you have a re-entry permit, there are still 60-20-7= 33 days left on your tourist visa. 1 extension possible of 30 days so you can still stay 63 days. Suppose you have the same situation without a tourist visa, then you have visa exempt 45 days + 1 extension of 30 days = 75 days. So really not understand 🤷‍♂️

"The clock" of 60 days does not stop when you leave with a re-entry permit !!

So indeed what

@Graham *****

says

@Tom *******

. That costs nothing and you even can extend your stay for 30 days for 1,900 ฿. Think it's of no use to take a re-entry permit.
