Look in y'r passport if they stapeled a new "notify in 90 days" paper. Some imm. offices put in a new paper with a date 90 days from y'r new year extension. Korat imm. always did with me.

@Debi ********

🙄 Start reading.

@Andrew *********

And also that extension of 30 days rings a bell when you come in again very quickly.

@John *******

Maybe most of them already long time residents. I opened a Kasikorn account 14 years ago, even on visa exempt entry of 30 days. No app then, only cyberbanking (via internet browser). About 9 years ago, I also could open a Bangkokbank account. Then it was not a very big problem. Only walk to a couple of branches. But indeed, now I read it's becoming much more difficult. Sometimes even with a long time visa with certificate of residence.

@Pete ******

Yep. And when he has that visa, for future use, with a certificate of residence, it should be possible to open a bank account. So later he can transfer 'livingmoney' to that account. As long as his visa (with one free extra year after a border hop and valid healthinsurance) is valid, he can use that. After about 2 years he has to decide for a new OA (no money at a Thai bank) or O with extensions (and Thai financial requirement).

Buttercup ?

Warren Yogi Baehr Maybe 'Buttercup' ? Downtown near the old busstation 🤷‍♂️

Bit bad luck also. Before you could get an income statement from the Canadian Embassy if you wanted an extension on y'r non imm O. Alas April this year, they stopped doing that.

@Max ************

1 time in 8 years ? Is that already a problem for you ? Normally 30 minutes to one hour.

@Max ************

Very strange. Used it 8 times already. Only one time it took 2,5 hours because of a truckload of imm. with an Agent. Did not see complaints. Which group ?
