    It was only suspended for air travel in June 2022

    Being a sovereign nation has NOTHING to do with multi-culturalism. (let's not forget that the UK and USA are also sovereign nations).

    Oh yes it does! social.PDF

    That rule was rescinded in about 2009 ish, there is no limit now

    " evidence of receiving interest from funds deposit," so you can use the interest from savings Also my point was that you did not mention earnings from work in Thailand
  6. bigt3116
    Blame that on the Thai authorities who wanted the income verified by the embassy, something they obviously could not do. That makes perfect sense, there is a big difference between someone who was murdered and someone who died of old age in a hospital.

    Just to clarify, if using Jomtien Immigration, they require 2 months seasoning for the initial Non-O

    How has the British embassy made the life of expats in Thailand "difficult" ? Again, how have they done this ?
  9. bigt3116
    Whatever! OP also be aware that your first extension will have to be for same reason as the issuance of the visa

    "An embassy is the base for a country's diplomatic mission abroad – meaning all of the political, cultural and social relationships between the states. " True the consular section is there to help out people if possible in an emergency, sorry, but running out of pages in your passport is not an emergency.

    The OP does want to renew his passport because it EXPIRES before his extension (supposedly)
  12. bigt3116
    the British embassy does not "handle these things", and that is not what "they are there for!"
  13. bigt3116
    That would all depend on the reason for issuance of the visa (business/marriage/retirement)
  14. bigt3116
    Because that is only for emergency travel, not to stay in the country Also, the British Embassy has nothing to do with new passport applications, that is all done via VFS
  15. bigt3116
    Couple of things, 2005 was a long time ago Second, they will never ask for tax payments from tourist visa holders
  16. bigt3116
    Do you have a link to where it says that for marriage extensions ? Because that is not what it says here; https://www.immigration.go.th/en/?p=14714

    You are still missing the point that we are saying that he can't have an extension beyond his passport's expiry date - the OP really needs to check
  18. bigt3116
    Grandfathering did not require any amount of previous extensions, all that mattered was your age and extension status on 21 October 1998 (both age and financials changed that day)
  19. bigt3116
    I did not say it couldn't , but the post I quoted quite clearly mentions a VOA, which is totally different to a visa exempt entry I mentioned it to clarify the point for other people reading the thread who may be in a similar situation
  20. bigt3116
    You are also missing the point that a VOA can not be converted into a Non-O in country
  21. bigt3116
    Your words Your words The OP clearly states that his passport expires before his extension
  22. bigt3116
    How do you think they put the visa in your passport ?
  23. bigt3116
    Actually it is MORE time without your passport, the consulate keeps your passport to issue the visa, immigration does not
  24. bigt3116
    And what I am saying is that it is not possible to have an extension beyond the passport's validity
