Oh wow! Definitely don’t assume the immigration officer knows English. In 6 years of going to Bangkok immigration they barely spoke a word to me except one senior officer once that spoke barely passable English.

I would say go do a 90 day report (if you are here a continuous 90 days) and if you don’t need to do it then they will tell you and you will know what to do for the next 5 years. Alternatively you could ignore it and pay the fine if you get caught.

Well congratulations. I always got good advice from Tod Daniels. I never had a problem at CW. I’m done with all that now that I have an LTR.

@Andy ***********

I'm assuming that is from a list of required documents for a 1 year extension? I never got one of those. I started extending in November, 2018. I learned what to bring from the Thai visa advice FB group.

I did submit a hand drawn map but I'm not sure what a receipt would be. I paid my monthly condo rent with a transfer from my Thai bank. The bank statement would be my evidence.

Whatever . . . if they are different then they are different. I stand corrected.

@Andy ***********

Interesting. I have an LTR now. My last OA extension was Oct 2022. Like I said, always brought, it never asked. I’ve never heard the requirements to be different.

@Andy ***********

🍧You are extending your O as married or retired?

@Andy ***********

except for the requirement of an insurance certificate the 1 year extension of an O and OA are identical. Same requirement and rules.

@Andy ***********

I extended my OA 5x at Bangkok. I always brought my lease but was never ask for it.

@Vin ********

The OA is a 1 year multi entry visa. The O is a 90 day visa. When the visas expire you then extend them (not renew) 1 year at a time.

👍 and I did Invisalign 15 years ago. You won’t regret it.
