  1. The OP got it wrong. He wrote "It was Non-B in 2010, then changed to Non RE when I got it transfered to a new passport. " It is not the extension stamp that got transferred from the old passport to the new one. It was the arrival stamp put in the passport when he entered with a re-entry permit. See the examples posted by Dr Jack54. NON-RE is not really correct; it should be just RE, as I have seen it on other arrival stamps of this type, unless immigration changed the practice. This is one of those cases where it would have been useful if the OP had posted a photo of the stamp in question but I realise that doing so is not always easy. Of course we cannot exclude the possibility that the latest arrival stamp in the old passport showed Non-B and this was corrected to NON-RE when it was copied over to the new passport. More likely, though, since the OP wrote that it was Non-B in 2010, that arrival stamp was from the original arrival with a non-B visa 13 years ago, not the arrival stamp from his latest arrival in Thailand
  2. The section Supporting Documents in the online application process for a tourist eVisa requires the upload of a document regarding the applicant's address in 2 places, under point 7 and point 9: I live in Switzerland and when I applied for a tourist visa I uploaded a sheet with the text "not applicable" under point 7, and under point 9 I uploaded the same statement for a bank account in Switzerland which I had already uploaded under point 6.
  3. We don't need another topic about tipping at immigration offices.
  4. Removed some more off-topic and troll posts and the replies to them. Enough of this useless bickering.
  5. In that case, it would give the OP the minimum of the "week or two" he is looking for.
  6. Actually, it depends on the reason for the extension. For example, if it is to visit a parent, spouse or child, a 60-day extension can be applied for.
  7. For a non-O visa, there is no "7 day trick"
  8. There have been a number of posts over the years indicating that the testimony of close relatives enabled the district office to issue a substitute document for the birth certificate.
  9. Your Thai ID number is on the ID page of your passport but it just occurred to me that if the district office lost the record of your birth before it was saved in a comuter database, this will not help them trace it.
  10. It depends on the category of your non-immigrant visa.
  11. Below are the links to the TM.30 reporting requirements currently in force: Thai language https://aseannow.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=689133 English translation https://aseannow.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=689586 From what you have posted, the following excerpt from those regulations appear to apply to your situation. You may wish to take a printout of the Thai text to your immigration office and ask the immigration official it this is the case.
  12. This leads to the question if the OP, @jjj555, in possession of his Thai ID card.
  13. That was exactly the point. Please stop bickering.
  14. What reason for the extension of stay did you indicate on the application form?
  15. I am starting to get confused. From what you have said, your current extension of stay is based on your last arrival in Thailand which you made with a tourist visa. What is this school you are talking about? Is it a school at which you are studying, or is it a school at which you will teaching after getting the necessary paperwork done? What exactly is the "volunteer visa" your old passport? Never mind. As your current permission to stay is based on your tourist visa entry, immigration will make no note of this "volunteer visa" or any other visa in your old passport.
  16. A note will be entered in your new passport referencing the tourist visa in the old passport, and the arrival stamp will be copied over. Nothing else.
  17. Now that the OP has reorted the outcome of his visit to the immigration office, this topic is closed.
  18. Removed a troll post.
  19. Another quirk of Thailand's e-Goverment. But they're slowly making progress. Next, they should find a way for immigration officials to look up the details of the TM.30 notification made for a foreigner's arrival on their database so that they don't have to ask the foreigner to bring a printed copy every time they need confirmation that the notification has been made.
