Is the TM28 address change submitted at the same counter as the 90-day report in Thailand?

You can also mail in a TM28 form in Bangkok. I did this successfully last year.

Why did VietJet Air require proof of an outbound flight for my kids despite having valid entry visas?

Henry *********

That's how it works for many parents of non-Thai kids. Enter on visa exempt and then just stay. Overstay fines and bans are not applied. I prefer to do it properly; but I know many parents who have been told it's ok by Thai Immigration.

Henry *********

Exactly. It's being "jobsworth" in the extreme to insist very young kids, who are entitled to a visa exempt entry, buy an onward ticket they couldn't possibly use!

Henry *********

Yes. But I'm surprised they would insist on applying this to young children accompanied by parents who have visas.

How old are your kids? My 3year old is piggy-backing on my Extension but there have been times when I've been tempted to let him enter visa exempt and just overstay. Not sure I'll do that now, in light of your experience!

Which section at Chaengwattana should I go to for transferring an Extension to a new passport?

Henry *********

Ah, thanks. In that case I might be better off waiting until 8 November when I will be going to renew my annual Extension (plus my wife and son's)? Will I get one queue ticket ('N') for the transfer and the Extension renewals?

What are the steps to transfer an extension of stay and multiple re-entry permit from a canceled passport to a new one in Thailand?

Henry *********

I received my new passport in early October. I was planning to get my Extension transferred at the same time, or right before, getting my new Extension on 8 November. Presumably it's ok to get it all done at the same time?

Does the 90-day reporting in Thailand start from entry or from the extension of stay for non-immigrant O visa holders, and does it apply to children?

Henry *********

It should be, but if it's not done there is no fine for children who do not do 90 day reports
