They can get an O visa like anyone else, if they meet the requirements (my wife did this). But as Tod Daniels says most just do border runs every month (or seemingly overstay!)

It can occasionally happen at BKK airport too. We now advise all our teachers to travel with their WP or a copy.

Regency for Expats are fine, but beware of their "semi-private" room clause for their cheaper policies.

Cheers. My landlord has insisted on filing the TM30 herself, so if a TM28 is immaterial, I'll leave it that. I have no plans to visit Immigration again until our Extensions are up for renewal in November 2020!

She can stay as your dependant, but she will need to come back in on an O visa. My wife was able to get her O visa at Immigration in Chaengwattana (she had a tourist visa) but I understand they will no longer do this.

Can't be done. You need a new passport.

You should definitely keep them legal if you plan to live here and school them here.

Immigration can give you a replacement Re-entry permit in your new passport but I doubt it can be done at the airport. You'll need to use the old passport with the visa in it anyway, so the Re-entry stamp in the old passport is still valid.

Has section N also speeded their extension procedures?
Henry *********
No. To get a Re-entry permit at Immigration you just need your passport, the form, a photo and cash.
