TV (tourist visas) are e-visas and with the exception of Laos the Thai embassies don't get your passport into their hands and therefore cannot put a stamp in it saying that next time they might not give you a new tourist visa.

Your VOID stamp means that an immigration official put a wrong stamp there and then voided it. None of the blanks have been filled in.

Removed a troll post.

Were the "other bits of paper to sign" all in Thai and you were not given a copy of them?

I made the mistake of not giving a link to the visa I referred to, ie the non-quota immigrant visa to keep the permanent permission to stay, ie the permanent residence, the immigrant status, alive . The only example I have on file is from 1983 and the text of this type of visa stamp may have changed since then. For a permanent resident, this non-quota immigrant visa, good for a specified number of return journey(s), does indeed serve the analogous service as the re-entry permit for the holder of a temporary permission to stay, ie it keeps the existing permission to stay alive. For anyone who may be wondering, the prefix "non-quota" indicates that the visa does not count against the annual quota of immigrant visas available per country. Unless this quota has been changed, it is generally 100 per country, but only 50 for small countries. I should be grateful if a permanent resident would be so kind as to post a recent non-quota immigrant visa for my album.

The application form for the type of residence certificate you need, on AseanNow commonly referred to as CoR or COR, has no form number and does not seem to be listed on the website of the Immigration Bureau. At least I can find it neither on https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=3159 nor on https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=2163 The website of the Bangkok immigration office may have the application form on it somewhere but I cannot find it. Not all immigration offices use he same form.

Indeed. It would be unreasonable for a Thai embassy or consulate to require or insist on a paid ticket at a time when the issue of the visa is still uncertain or the date of receipt of it still unknown.

Pardon me. It was @Agusts who posted that.

When required, if you own the condo in which you live, the sales contract is evidence that you are the householder (เจ้าบ้าน), aka house master or house-master, which means the person who is the chief possessor of the condo in the capacity of owner as defined in section 4 and the householder and the owner and the possessor as referred to in section 38 of the Immigration Act.

When required, the "chanote", ie the land title deed, allows the matching of the names as shown in Thai language in the land title deed and in the house registration book for the building on that plot of land.

It is the "blue book", ie the house registration book, in which the Thai lessor, ie the person from whom you are renting the dwelling, is listed.

I'd like to reply to your question, but first I need some additional information: What do you mean by "a year visa"? What do you mean by "a deposit just to get a single non-o lol"?

That's a good joke.

Would reporting the damage to the passport to the police be an option? After all, I would need a police report to apply for a new passport and to get a refund of my expenses from my travel insurance.
