Could anyone else confirm this please? Thanks.

Thanks @VocalNeal Could anyone else confirm this please? Thanks. Is it really possible to change from a Non O based on supporting my Thai daughter to a Non B using my new employer at the One-Stop Visa & Work permit department without having to visit a Thai Consulate in another country? Could you or anyone else confirm this? I would obviously prefer not to have to fly out of the country if possible. Thanks.

Hi, i'm British and want to change my Non O guardian visa to a Non B. I have a company that wants to employ me. How long do you typically get on your first Non B? Thanks.

@DrJack54 I was also thinking of going to immigration to casually ask if they can do anything to help with my 12 month extension given mu circumstances. Not sure if it's allowed to be discussed here but having done 12 month extensions for more than 10 years based on supporting my Thai daughter, the last 2 years they have told me that my application can't be processed due to some trivial technicality in my documents - but they can process it if I (let's put it this way) - "increase" the application fee. Same person both times and I know that person is still there.

@FARANG KIWI Thanks for the suggestion however I want to keep doing my 12 month Non O extension as I may be working in the near future.

DrJack54 - Noted. Thanks as I wasn't aware of that.

Hi, I'm British, over 50 and have a Non O visa based on supporting my Thai daughter who I brought up on my own. I have never been married and I am not with my child's mother. My current 12 month extension expires in just over 2 weeks however my daughter is currently overseas and won't be back in Thailand for another 6 weeks. As she needs to go with me when I submit my application for a 12 month extension I want to apply for a 60 day "Visit Thai Family Members Extension" to bridge the gap until she returns to Thailand. Does someone know the price for this extensions and the documents required. Thanks. PS - I am not interested in a retirement visa.

Thank you for your help.

The immigration office that I use is Chaeng Wattana.

Hi, I am a British national who has a Thai daughter. Because of some particular circumstances this year I would like to apply for my Non-O Guardian Visa (supporting my Thai daughter) at the earliest possible opportunity. I have asked one Thai person to check for me and they said that the earliest that I can submit my 12 months extension application is 45 days before the expiry of the current one. Can anyone verify this based on personal experience? Thanks.

Hi, Driving from Bangkok to Krabi with the family in a couple of weeks to spend 3 nights on Phi Phi Island. I would be really grateful for recommendations of where to safely park my car within walking distance (with luggage) of Noparat Thara Pier where we're getting the ferry. Thanks.

Thanks for all the helpful advice. Really appreciated. As always I'll ignore all the keyboard warriors who clearly have some serious personal issues to deal with.

Hi, I have already searched online (Google) and keep getting conflicting information. Does anyone have any recent experience of applying for a Tourist Visa using the Thai Consulate in London as a British national using their online application service with particular regard to the following: 1) Processing time once application has been submitted? 2) Is the 200,000 Baht or equivalent shown on a bank statement currently enforced? 3) Anything else that I should be aware of given that the requirements/enforcement can chop and change? Thanks.

Hi, Not getting much response to my question. The one guy that did responsd seems uncontactable now. I would be very grateful if someone could recommend and IT guy that could help either at my condo remotely. Thanks.

Hi, Just arrived back home. Are you available now?

Hi, Can anyone recommend an IT technician that provides an on-site service. I have a HP Ink Tank Wireless 415 printer. Worked fine on my Dell computer and my partner's Dell computer. Then we moved condo. Can print from my partner's Dell computer (6 year old computer) but won't from my much newer Dell computer. I have spent hours watching YouTube videos on how to fix this specific issue but to no avail. I don't want to waste any more of my time trying to fix it as I have other important things to do. Any recommendation on someone to come to my condo in Phromphong to fix greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, Is it still possible to apply for a re-entry permit at Suvarnabhumi airport? Thanks.

Thanks Ubon Joe. Much appreciated.

Hi, I am a 55 year old Brit that has brought up my Thai daughter alone since she was 1 years old. She is now 16 almost 17. She lives with me. I have never been married. I have a court order confirming me as being her father from a Thai Family Court. I am due to do my 12 month extension again shortly. Normally as part of the long list of documentation I have to submit I have to take photos of her and me inside and outside of the school and also a letter from the school confirming that she is a student. She quit school 4 months ago and currently isn't working. Will this affect my application for a 12 months extension on my Non-O Guardian Visa and do I need any additional documentation now that she has quit school? Thanks. PS - For numerous reasons I am not interested in getting a retirement visa.

I am a very experienced British Engineer that has been based in Thailand for 24 years.

Additionally I can speak Thai to a reasonable level. I am now looking for my next project. I work on an hourly/contract basis. Please PM me if you know of anyone who needs assistance in these areas.

Hi, I have a Honda Civic 2012. I've got tired of the sloppy workmanship and expensive prices of a certain Honda Dealership in Bangkok. Can anyone recommend an independent Honda repair shop in Bangkok, ideally not excessively far from the Phrom Phong area. It's an airbag wiring issue that should be simple enough to fix. Thanks.

Thanks Robin. Do you mean the crimped wire inside the white plastic male and female connector?

Hi, I've discovered that the reason the speakers on my 7 year old Dell XPS have stopped working is due to a "dry connection" in the small plastic male and female connector inside my notebook. When I removed the notebook base and booted the computer the speakers worked again when I manipulated the small plastic male ad female connector which connect the two internal speaker wires to the PCB. However when I put the put the notebook base back on they didn't work again. Does anyone have any tips on how to clean the really tiny copper terminals inside the small plastic connectors and especially if you know of any aerosol solvent spray that's available in Thailand specifically for cleaning copper contacts/terminals. Thanks.

Hi, I am a British national and I have a Non O Guardian Visa based on supporting my Thai daughter who is 15. My experience at CW is that they are always increasing/changing the list of documents required for obtaining a 12 month extension. I am due to go there this week. Does anyone have the latest list of documents required based on a recent visit? Thanks.
