Province? Local or Provincial Amphoe. Define 'all documents'.

You don't have a visa, you have permission of stay until 25th May, which is a permit. Your re-entry permit expires the same day as your permission of stay. You need to depart Thailand by 25th May, then re-enter after 25th May visa exempt (without a visa), or apply to obtain a new Non O visa at a local Thai Embassy. If you enter VE, you can alternatively apply for the Non O at Immigration, then the 1-year annual extension. Basically, you have to start from scratch again because you failed to meet the financial requirements for a further 1 year extension.

All Thai ID cards state 'lifetime' validity when 60 years of age. It's not specific to have PR status.

Local government hospitals and clinics. Register your details using either Passport or Thai ID card, and they'll issue a hospital card with an ID registration number. The card is then all you need to access services. Free Covid and Flu vaccinations when available.

The all important question should be, has the OP now got 800K in his Thai bank account?

The latter. 🙄

Topic is about Tourist visas, not visa exempt entries. The Tourist visas permit a stay of 60 days + 30 day extension.

If you require a list of documents to submit as a reminder, send me a PM.

My extension renewal is due 10th July each year. Until that date I have permission of stay regardless of how prior in advance my next application is submitted. The 30-day consideration period is always dated from the date of the expiry date of my extension. Regardless of the return date, my Immigration office phone me as soon as it's approved, which is usually before my existing extension has expired. From these stamps you'll note I submitted my application 2nd June, 38 days prior to my extension expiring, and given an under consideration stamp until 9th August, 30 days after my extension expiry date. I was then advised on 15th June my application had been approved and returned for the new extension stamp on 17th June. Only some 15 days after I'd submitted my application and 23 days before my existing extension expired. Last year I submitted my application much later than usual on 18th June. I received a call on 5th July notifying my extension had been approved. I attended 9th July for my new extension stamp

@josephbloggs You currently have permission of stay until 2nd July and a multi re-entry permit, so re-entering on 28th June you will be stamped in until 2nd July. Why don't you submit your 1-year extension application at the same time? I usually apply 45 days early, but my under consideration stamp is always dated from the expiry date of my current extension to 30 days after. However, it is usually approved before my current extension expires. Ensure you advise CW of your planned trips and hopefully your extension application will be approved and can be collected on Monday 30th June. You'll need to obtain a new re-entry permit to cover your new extension period.

I agree with your travel agent. It's not so much the number of entries that raise concerns, but the total time being spent in Thailand as opposed to time spent outside the Country. No VE entries this year and almost 6 months since your last entry - no problem.

What! Without a mask ........... Noooooooooooooo!

If Thailand is so disagreeable, you can leave whenever you want.

Well, assume we all didn't wear trousers and ran around butt naked. If we were talking face to face, and I took a piss, your legs would get wet. However, if you'd worn trousers, then your leg would only get partially wet. But if I also wore trousers, only my legs would get wet and your legs would stay dry. Same concept with masks.

Don't apologise or be sorry, you're just being your usual self.

You must brighten up every room you walk out of.

Outdated, irrelevant, still stuck in a timezone. The world has moved forward, try getting out more.

You must be new to Thailand. Thais have worn masks for years due to dust and poor air quality. Same concept as wearing trousers, and I assume you wear trousers.

Op stated his permission of stay ended on 20th, which is a Tuesday. I suggested the day before (Monday) to maximise his additional 7 days POS. Correct, the additional 7 days is granted from the date of application.

It's how you worded it in your previous post. That is misleading. If the extension application was submitted and granted in June, the permission of stay would run into the following June. The financial requirement for that extension however would run from April to March inclusive. If the OP maintained the 800K for 3 months after the extension was granted and 400K for a further 7 months, he could apply for an extension based on Thai spouse provided he still had 400K. He would meet both criteria for the retirement extension he was previously granted and a new application for the reason of Thai spouse.

Correct, but you'll have to pay the 1,900 BHT fee for the application. You can apply the day before.

An 'O' visa grants a stay of 90 days. It is used on entry, but your Immigration status is Non Immigrant. You then apply to extend that 90 day permission of stay for a further 12 months each and every year, for reason of retirement or Thai family. The financial requirements differ dependent on the reason. More information required.

The financial yearly requirement starts 2 months prior to submitting the application, then the following 10 months from when the extension is approved. 800K for 3 months afterwards, then 400K for the next 7 months. 2+3+7=12.

The financial requirement for an extension based on retirement starts 2 months before the date of application, then for 10 months after the extension is approved. The OP didn't state when his shortfall occurred. If it's recent, within 2 months of his next application and not having the required 800K, he could apply based on Thai spouse (400K) whilst still having met the requirement of his existing retirement extension.

My wife was first presented with and asked to complete that affidavit in 2022, and again in 2023. Last year it was presented in a new format from a template on their PC, with all the details included, just required signing.
