  1. Incorrect. A single entry is 'USED' on entry. However, you can exit and re-enter Thailand with a re-entry permit within the 90-day period of stay granted by the visa. Who is 'we'? Many obviously don't know and believe they are extending their visa. Factually correcting that belief is not being pedantic.
  2. Really. If you could extend a visa, you wouldn't need a re-entry permit. Visas allow entries. Extensions of one's period of stay, are permits, and do not allow entries, hence the need for a re-entry permit.
  3. Its relevance is that in order to apply for a YB and ID card, the person responsible for the Blue book and named as the householder (first page after address) must sign a form at the Amphoes consenting to you using their address. Without this consent, you cannot apply.
  4. Many Thais can be in a Blue book. Is the house owned by you, rented, or a family home. Is your wife registered on the first page after the address as the 'householder' of the Blue book.
  5. Your work permit must have the address of your place of employment, which is nothing to do with your residential address. My guess she saw your work permit address, so correctly stated 'no can do'. Is your house owned by your wife?
  6. All you should have in the back of your passport is the receipt of your TM30 and due 90 day report receipt. The blue slips are payment receipts, take them out. Most amphoes now request Embassy certified copies of your Passport data page and birth certificate (with parents names). These then need translating to Thai, then the documents legalising by the Consular section of the MFA.
  7. He still has parental rights and responsibilities. It doesn't sound as if they've been to court to establish any custodial order, which may need to be his next step.
  8. The child was born in wedlock, which automatically grants him legal rights. @248900_1469958220 You're attempting to apply for an extension of stay based on the Father of a Thai citizen. The criteria for such an extension is in Immigration order 327/2557, section 2.18 Clause 4 states; (4) In the case of children, adopted children, or spouse's children, said children, adopted children, or spouse's children must not be married, must live with the alien as part of the family, and must not be over 20 years of age except in case of the person hereof is of illness or disability and cannot live without support of father or mother: The highlighted bold part of this clause is your stumbling block. It's possible they may want to speak to your spouse to determine how custody is shared and how much time your son spends with you before making a decision. If they refuse the extension, then you need to go the Non B route again to continue your employment.
  9. That just shows how ignorant many are of Immigration. You extend your permission of stay granted by the original visa. Visas cannot be extended. Whilst those who continue to post they extended their visa, there's another reader who believes that. Last week came across an American and a British guy just returned from a trip overseas, who are puzzled because on entry they received a 60 day stamp. Tell them it's just semantics or pedantry. Only now has the penny dropped, and they'll have to start from scratch again.
  10. Yes, I was being sarcastic, Jack. If only they read the forms they complete, the TM7 and STM2 it would be obvious what they're applying for. Alas, until the masses can be educated, we'll have to put up with renewing Retirement and Marriage visa, although renewing an O-A visa is original. 😉
  11. You must be privileged. Is that the TM77 form. Application of temporary visa renewal in Thailand.
  12. If you read my earlier post that quoted a Thai Embassy site. "Foreigners entering Thailand by any means under the Visa Exemption scheme are required at the port of entry to have proof of planned travel (confirmed air, train, bus, or boat tickets) to leave Thailand within 60 days of the arrival date". https://london.thaiembassy.org/en/page/exemp-visa I'll repeat, what is the point of the above outward tickets, if refused entry you're stuck airside and can use them. The airlines will be aware of that, so is it really to cover an airline backside. In that case scenario, who would be responsible for arranging a flight out from the same airport. The airline who just brought you, or yourself?
  13. That's the point I was making. Same airline, same departure point as arrival. Couple of years ago, a friend entering VE purchased an onward ticket from DMK to Phnom Penh At check in, Emirates UK, they checked his outbound ticket but refused boarding with that outbound ticket. The check in counter asked him "As we land at Suvarnabhumi airport, if refused entry, how would you travel to depart DMK"? He had to book another outbound ticket from SUV to Phnom Penh. According to Emirates, if refused entry they would have been responsible for taking him back to his point of departure as the outbound ticket was unusable, fake or genuine.

  15. So where do you draw the line before you complain, or do you just support and condone the scam and corruption. May IO's already charging for a COR, now 90 day in person reports, what next 1,000 BHT service fee for an extension?
  16. He meant send it by mail, recorded delivery with a self-addressed prepaid return envelope.
  17. If they accept mail in, reports suggest not all IO's accept that method.
  18. It's already been established though that these onward flight tickets are 'fake', not an actual booking. What use is an onward flight, bus, train or boat ticket if you're refused entry anyway, unless the flight is genuine and booked from the same destination as the arrival. Exactly how does it cover an airline backside, as they would still be responsible to return you to your point of departure.
  19. And if we all pay 100 BHT, how long before they charge 200, 300 BHT, such is their greed. You can't stop the rot once it's started. Prevention is always better than cure. It is the principle of the matter.
  20. Many have reported being rejected online. 4 of my previous 6 online reports have been rejected. Same details entered each time.
  21. 20+ years ago when I still worked, the most holiday time I could take en bloc was 3 weeks, and I always had a return ticket within 21 days. The Thai Embassies state; Foreigners entering Thailand by any means under the Visa Exemption scheme are required at the port of entry to have proof of planned travel (confirmed air, train, bus, or boat tickets) to leave Thailand within 60 days of the arrival date. https://london.thaiembassy.org/en/page/exemp-visa What is the purpose of having an onward ticket. To show an intent not to overstay, or an alternative means to depart if refused entry?
  22. Not lucky at all. If you were staying 270 days a year using VE + extensions, a 90 day report was never required. That's why you never had an issue.
  23. That is not what I said at all. Exactly the same as you posted a screenshot of.
  24. Surely not. Certain airlines will only accept online payment using a credit card, not a debit card. Roojai Insurance, for example, state online payments by credit/debit card, but when entering a debit card number the system won't process it. When you contact customer services, you are informed the payment system only accepts credit cards, but they can manually process debit card payments.
  25. Debit and Card number sequences are different. Some systems will accept debit/credit cards, others that specifically want a credit card, will not accept a debit card.
