Can I renew my NON OA retirement visa while in the USA or should I apply for a new one?

Alf ***********

You need a re-entry permit or a valid visa. That stamp is worthless

Are embassies currently issuing Non-O visas for retirement instead of O-A visas?

Alf ***********

Embassys in SOME countries will not issue non-immigrant O visas based on being over 50 years old.

But most embassys do

(Pre Covid-19 of course)

Do I need to do a 90-day report immediately after receiving my first one-year extension of stay based on marriage in Thailand?

Alf ***********

If they tucked a slip into his passport, he should do what it says.

It may have been because of his 60 days extension

Is an International Driving Permit valid in Thailand with a Non-Immigrant Visa?

Alf ***********

You need an international driver's license. The one that is valid for one year.

But you can only use it in Thailand for 3 months per entry

Is an International Driving Permit valid in Thailand with a Non-Immigrant Visa?

Alf ***********

Police is the least of your worries.

Try to be involved in an accident without a valid driving licence

Do I need to season the 400,000 baht for a Non-O marriage visa extension in Thailand?

Alf ***********

@Risto ***********

, it should give you a few different options.

The half Thai child could get you an extension without having to season the money.

I recommend you talk to your local immigration office and sort out your options

Do I need to season the 400,000 baht for a Non-O marriage visa extension in Thailand?

Alf ***********

Seeing that you were stamped in January for less than a year, I believe you entered on a re-entry permit and that your visa has already expired.

It is your permission to stay that expires in November.

So you need to get some kind of extension before that time

@Risto ***********

, your options are an 1 year extension based on either marriage or retirement.

Or you could apply for a 60 days extension for visiting Thai family. That would buy you some time to season the money

Why was my visa extension in Phuket dated from September 15 instead of September 26?

Alf ***********

, not without a non-immigrant visa.

A non-immigrant is a requirement for all 1 year extensions
