It sounded to me like you could just do a border run. Exit to another country nearby like Burma, cross the border, get a stamp and return. You do have to show a monthly income of 65,000 baht. I forgot to mention that.

What options do I have to obtain a 90-day Non-O visa in Thailand without waiting for my bank account to season?

Vicky *****************

Have you considered a DTV visa? Lasts for five years. You have to go in and out every six months. I got one in about 30 days. I used an agent though because I heard it is quicker that way. You do need to show $15,000 in the bank also.

I’m building a house in Chumphon which is the province just north of Surathani. I help fundraise and write grants for an orphanage there. Send me a pm if you want to visit and check out that area. There is room to build other houses on the land. Building my house cost about 20,000, maybe a little more since I decided on solar.

@Larry ******

can’t send a message but will reply here. I am building a house in Chumphon not too far from Surathani. It is about a mile from an orphanage I volunteer at. The district it is in in fairly small but there is a gym with a pool and a lot of nature and really interesting agricultural stuff to do. There is a Homestay (kind of like an Airbnb) a football field away and the beach is just a couple miles away. We go spearfishing there. There are not a lot of other foreigners around. I’m sure they’re out there and many come to the Homestay. I speak Thai so that might make it easier for me. I can’t message you but you can message me if you’re interested. I will be there September 2. There is room to build several other houses on this land. I just got a small one built because it’s just me for 18,000 dollars. You could probably build one for 21,000.
