This year I booked 120 days to Thailand from UK on visa on arrival.I had a return flight booked to Cambodia on day 58.When I left UK I had no problem with airline not having return ticket within the 30 days of arrival. Have things changed now?

Hi, I have received conflicting information regarding the 30 days extension given after 45 days.Maybe Jack or Joe can answer my query? I arrived for 4 mths trip on a visa exempt.After the 45 days and near the end of the 30 days extension I booked a 3 day out of Thailand.When I come back can I repeat the process of 45 days plus 30 days extension.I have been told you will not get the second 30 extension.Is this correct?TIA Billypla

Do you need a copy of TM30? last time I went for the 30 day extension on the visa exempt I did not need to show anything relating to TM30.

Thanks guys

I am returning to Thailand on Jan 25 for 4 months on a visa exempt status which I want to change to a Non O Imm based on retirement. I have the 800k in my bank for many years. My question to Joe or Jack is can I go to Chang Wattana on jan 26(44 days before visa expires) or do I have to wait until there is less than 30 days left on the visa? TIA for any help. Billypla.

Thanks for your quick response Joe.I am a bit confused however on difference between Visa Exempt and Visa on Arrival. I am from Ireland whichis one of the countries that does not require a visa so what is the visa exempt entry?Is there a form I need to fill out and what is the 2000 fee? Sorry for sounding dim Billypla

Hi all. Previously I had a yearly extension based on retirement.This lapsed during covid and now I enter Thailand on a visa at arrival. But I want to apply again for the Non Immigrant visa. I have a few questions which hopefully Joe or Jack can help me with. (1) What is the earliest date that I can apply for the Non Imm?.If I arrive Jan 25 can I go Chang Wattana the next day? (2)Can I just turn at Chang Wattana or do I have to make an appoinment ? (3)Do I need Insurance when applying for Non Imm or only when you are apply for extension for retirement? (4)Are there any new documents that I need for Non Imm visa? I have 800k in the bank for over 5 yrs. I update my balance on the day I go there.Is there any other bank letters I need. My bank Siam send me monthly statements.Is this sufficient or is there another ba.nk detail that I am missing? Thanks in advance for any help Billypla
