It sounds like you can do the TM30 when you return from your trip in July as you won’t need to do the 90 report on this visit.

I got the transaction history on the spot from my branch before I went to Penang for the non O so that’s okay. If they can’t do the letter on the spot I could get the letter at CW branch couldn’t I? ( Bangkok Bank). Yes I am also thinking that applying earlier in the 30-45 days window is better in case they need more documents. Does the 1 year extension start from date of application or expiry of 90 day non O?

@Vanida *****

You will need a copy of your TM30 notification when you you do your 90 day report ( unless you are able to do it online) so if you didn’t submit when you came back to Bangkok you might want to go on the TM30 website and submit a new notification, download a copy and keep it ready to do your 90 day report when it becomes due.

@Anthony *****

My point is that he might need to show it. A return ticket is an onward ticket. It just means ticket out of the country.

@James *******

Is it worth mentioning that they might be asked to show onward tickets and proof of funds? Just to cover all eventualities.

It might be worth pointing out that you should go to the immigration office as soon as possible and point out the issue to them. If you get stopped by for example the police for any reason I think the potential consequences could be far worse than if you come forward first.

@John *******

Yes. If you just hand over your passport without highlighting the visa that you want to enter under the IO will assume that you want to enter under a VE because he won’t know that the TV is there. When I entered last week I had a PE visa with a month remaining as well as the new non O that I had just obtained in Penang and it occurred to me that if I didn’t highlight the non O he might stamp me in under the PE or even a VE entry which would have messed up my plan to apply for a marriage Stay extension so I presented my passport open on the non O visa page which then gets stamped “ used” and all good with the entry stamp for 90 days marked “non O”. The importance of checking your passport before leaving immigration when arriving in any country cannot be overstated.

@Heinz **********

Interesting. That suggests that you might as well submit online repeatedly until the day before it is due. Nothing to lose by trying.

@Tod ********

To avoid confusion ( well I was confused because I was looking for a download button) when you do it online you have to submit the notification then search for it then when the search results come up you click on the magnifying glass symbol ( see sample attached) which opens the document that you provided a sample of then you can download it or print using the buttons at the top of the screen. It’s also worth noting that you can only find the notification record within 7 days of submission.

@Tod ********

We moved in in 2007 and have never had a need for the blue housebook so have never pursued it. My wife owns a house in Phitsanulok and is on the house book there so we have used that to get married and aquire the non O. Note that the condo was 10 years old when I purchased it and I have the previous owners name and address but I doubt that I will be able to find them now.
