Can I extend my tourist visa immediately upon arrival in Thailand?

Tony **********

Not sure if you left yet, but a 60 day tourist visa is cheaper than a 30 day extension....

What is the procedure for moving ฿800k for a retirement visa in Thailand and how does it impact my visa renewal?

Tony **********

I believe the money has to be in an account that is immediately available (liquid). So anything that has any delay would not be acceptable. Should just consider it dead money and move on.

The 800k is the government's way of ensuring the likelihood of you getting public assistance (ie hospital bills) is extremely low.

Can I keep my retirement visa if I leave Thailand with a re-entry permit?

Tony **********

thanks! Not overly intuitive. I would have thought the multi entry would give me the right to leave and renter, but not the obligation to do so.... Interesting.

Can I keep my retirement visa if I leave Thailand with a re-entry permit?

Tony **********

huh? Requires me to leave and renter? On my evisa tourist visa form there was a selection for single entry or multi entry. I was wondering if there was the same on the non o visa...

Can a non-o be done as a multi entry? Or does one have to get a re-entry permit for each exit/entry?

What are my options for obtaining a Thai visa while in Taipei?

Tony **********

Chris Alexander might just show then whatever you're doing flight wise and add to that document your explanation. Worst case you're out $40 and may have to wait a week to find out. Might be worth a shot. Honesty might be best policy. I'm not a visa expert!

Why not not use USA evisa? If you have the required documentation should be relatively easy. Might want to use a vpn... Main thing will be showing your flight itennary... The may question your not coming/returning USA.
