I think the yellow book is accepted in place of a tm30

You can provided she can get a US visa

When i was at Jomtien for an extension, I had to renew my tm30. I thought maybe because I was ona visa exempt entry, so I clarified with the IO. Even if on a 1 year extension and leave Thailand, a new tm30 is required. That lesson cost 1600฿ 🤣

same process with the bigger fee. Though you may need to give reason for a 10 year application.

@Mike ******
the main thing seems to be reasons to return to Thailand. The fact that she's had 2 already should make it a more straightforward process. I done letters from her family, letters from me, all financials. Only reason for going to UK is to spend time with you and your family.

No, I've did it myself twice and not that difficult. Last one was a 2 year visitor visa. Next up, 10 year visitor visa 🤞

Do it yourself. Get the paperwork sorted and go within 7 days of your stamp ending, and go first thing in the morning (8am) 1900฿

Do your NON-O when you actually plan to retire here. Before that you can enter visa exempt and extend for the 90 days that you require this year
