I did mine yesterday. It was instantly confirmed. In the past it did take a few days

Gregor Huettner Thank you. I wasn't aware of this. It seems that the individual offices are not aware of this as well.Will try my luck on Monday. Will tell the hotel to register me first not to get caught out :-) I always book everything in my wife's name to avoid the registration process.

Just do it online. Always have..... doesn't matter where you are in Thailand

I wish I had read your post before applying for my yearly extension last week. Six months ago when my O-A ran out I was granted an extension of stay based upon retirement until my insurance expired. I am also married to a Thai. I will definitely go down that route next year. To satisfy O-A visa requirements I purchased a health issurace from the approved list. Gave a huge excess that renders the insurance usless but cheap then bought a sensible policy with high inpatient cover

My advice is if you have the chance just use your Thai partners name if applicable..... It has always worked for me

The TM30 issue is confusing as every immigration office has its own set of rules. Being a good lad I went to Korat Immigration and they told me only if I leave Thailand do I have to do again. My mate who lives in Chang Mai wasn't so lucky. Got fined 800 Baht

Thanks Todd have one with Pacific Prime already...They meet the requirements

I did mine a couple of days ago. The app kept on timing out but I had no problems using my browser using Thai immirgration direct.Worked fine 👍
