Can you apply for a Non-O visa in Thailand if you have an overstay notification in your passport?

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

If you want to apply for an in-country non-immigrant visa, you can not currently be on overstay.

Minor overstays in the past shouldn't matter.

@Sandra *******

, a visa is for entering the country. The extension you have is your stay permit. So you're on no visa at all.

How can my brother get the correct number of days for his e-visa to Thailand?

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

A visa is not a stay permit in Thailand.

The permission to stay stamp he will get on arrival will be for 60 days, if he arrives with a tourist visa.

Why does my income letter need verification by MOFA after being issued by my embassy in Thailand?

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

I'm guessing (and got it confirmed in the comments) that you are using the office in Pattaya for an in-country non-immigrant visa.

They do, for some reason, require the income letter to be legalised by the MFA.

They do NOT have this requirement for extension of stay.

What happens to visa and extension information when transferring to a new passport in Thailand?

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

Should I enter Thailand on a 30-day visa exemption or opt for a longer visa to convert to a Non-O Retirement?

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

@Kevin ********

, the visa you are looking for is non-immigrant O, based on being over 50 years old (retirement).

In the Thai E-visa portal you look for this alternative:
