Thx Guys, appreciated.

@DrJack54

I will leave the 800k in the account until I get my year stamp which will be after the Under Consideration Period.

Thx for the tip.

I was for many years on a extension of stay based on Marriage, and then I switched to extension based on Retirement. (Both extensions done with Money in the BANK)

Now if possible I want to switch back to the Marriage Extension. Is that possible at Immigration or should I leave Thailand (without a Re-Entry Permit) get a Single NON-O (basis of Marriage) and start again?

My Guess is that you have something called Ghost Export and the Electronic meter is registering it.

You say, you don't export, but there is something called "Ghost Export". I have noticed that in our setup and on the day the meter reader comes we have a FAN running on a circuit that bypasses the solar and thus make the meter go forward ever so slowly, the rest of the house is "powered" by Solar.

Edit: Must add that we still have a Spinning Disc Meter, if we get a Electronic Meter, then we have to run that Fan (on that separate Circuit) from Morning till evening. I am thinking of getting a LOW wattage ice maker and use that instead of the Fan 😉

4. How long in advance can I schedule a visa appointment?
• You can schedule an appointment up to 14 days in advance.

And I just checked and for those 2 weeks all appointments are already booked solid.

You have to check the appointment site often to be able to book a slot.

Can anyone confirm how long the 400k needs to be in the bank prior to applying for the visa?

I will be riding a big bike from Chiang Mai so Vientiane is the better option as it's a much shorter ride

Sorry no idea, but may I ask a question? Are you looking for a Single Entry NON-O or a Multiple Entry? (Reread the OP and there it is mentioned Multiple Entry)

If going for a Multiple Entry Savannakhet will definitely issue these and I can't find any link that Vientiane also does these, so make sure you check that before going.

Edit: here a thread on how long the money needs to be in the bank and there it is said that it needs to be 2 months

^+1

But also note that you now need an appointment at Savannakhet

I hope there will be some encouragement for Imm to go easier on long-term visa applicants in general.

From reports and my personal experience things seemed easier past years.

👍

I wonder with all these changes what more is going to happen 🤔

Where are you located?

In my case, I have 4 small (250 GB) SSDs...lying about.

 

How might I use them.

Put them in a NAS?

Maybe this helps?

I just recently changed the registered owner of my AIS sim card from my wife to myself, it was very easy. They only take a picture of your passport and take a picture of yourself and done

You will then receive an SMS with that SIM is registered with the last 4 digits of your ID card

2nd Electric meter could be AFAIK used for charging an Electric Vehicle which is a ToU meter.
