You will be fine. After you are back in Thailand please give a report of what occured. Good luck.

As an afterthought. No idea flights/routes from Africa to Bangkok. Just be aware that the airline at departure may require onward if flying visa exempt to Thailand.

You can obtain a Non O marriage at UT immigration. If there is an issue from UT go to Vientiane and obtain eVisa. Issued VERY quickly You would use a TM87 form along with other requirements such as financials etc. The e-Visa platform is pretty much worldwide now. With German pp visa exempt entry currently 60 days. If you explain your intention to obtain Non O marriage in Thailand then that should be sufficient. Try the eVisa path.

Trolling post removed.

Your permission of stay expired. By "renew my Non O" you really mean obtain a new Non O. That can be done via visa exempt entry or obtaining e-Visa from where you are currently. You mention West Africa. If eVisa not possible suggest you just enter Thailand visa exempt. Explain circumstances if questioned. Wife's id copy marriage handy. Should not be required.

Your personal choice may not be what the OP has in mind. In addition visa exempt providing 60 days may not be ongoing. Comments re taxation etc is how You perceive things.

I added link to my first post. Here is another. https://www.thaiembassy.com/thailand-visa/dtv-visa-thailand# Mind you thinking Non Of retirement + annual 12 month extensions best option. In fact suggest you obtain the Non O in home country. Enter Thailand and receive 90 day stamp. If you have a good vibe then transfer 800k baht in anticipation of obtaining a 12 month extension. If things change you have not backed yourself into a corner. You can scrap the plan at any time.

From the other questions in your post you seem very unaware of Thailand. Non O is not based on retirement it's based on being 50+ years old. Do you have a Thai bank account. Again.. Very little research. "Digital Nomad" is one option. Soft power option are available. Many sites provided information https://dtv.in.th/th If visa exempt remains at 60 days there is not much value in a SETV. Also you can only extend visa exempt and SETV once by 30days. So yes you would need a border run. Honestly seems you have never been to Thailand and having a 6 month visit to see if it's an option for ongoing living.

Hearing from who re Maneerat. First hand report would be useful.

You just entered on SETV and asking about photo for 30 day extension. Immigration will not be interested. Note: anyone needing photo at CW, the stall located L1. Four photos 100b.

Off topic post removed (again)

Your understanding of the "until date" on the Non O is correct.

Current thread running. Thread closed

Application for extension can be done up to 30 days prior to expiry. 45 days at some offices eg CW, CM, PHUKET. I did not and it's irrelevant. You can study Thai language without any visa related to that. Your options are clear.

Very good suggestion. Note for using appointment option at CW take print out of appointment. Go to desk far right side of where tickets issued. You will be seen virtually straight away. For anyway doing car + bike just tick form for car. You can use photocopy for other application.

You would require 800k seasoned for 2 months in a Thai Bank account in your name only to obtain a 12 month extension. So you apply for that in last 30 days of stamp from the Non O Then ongoing financial requirements after extension granted. Along with reentry permit. Seems you don't have any clear intention re how long/often you wish to stay in Thailand. No interested in politics.

Don't know what "current political environment" refers to. In any even you suggest a stay of 2-3 months. Why even bother with Non O extension. Just obtain a Non O e-Visa to enter Thailand and be given a 90 day stamp. That's, it. No interaction with immigration at all. Alternatively enter visa exempt and receive 60 day stamp + obtain 30 day extension. That would require a TM30. Simple.

Currently online window is 2 weeks prior to due date till one week prior So basically only 7 days open. As suggested do it early as possible. OP if you have photocopies of your pp including last entry stamp you could do it via Mail. For mail post 15 days prior to due date.

Which has nothing to do with the OP report.

Agents do not deal with extensions based on marriage unless just for hand holding.. Also in many areas agents are not readily available.

That's the point there are no rules. Common example being that no stated limit on visa exempt entries via air. Leaves refused entry a raffle/Russian Roulette. It would be so easy to have clearly stated Rules. No Rules. No Consistently. No Idea.

OR they could consider the option of having clearly defined immigration rules without immigration offices just making up rubbish at a whim. Damn ridiculous imo.

The OP was not in Thailand when TDL expired. He is asking about renewal. Pointing out that TDL can be renewed up to 12 months after expiry.

What do you mean "I went to Cambodia" "Waiting for a phone call to go and pick it up".... Pick up what? Are we meant to guess... CAMBODIA INTER TOUR & TRAVEL https://g.co/kgs/TTw4YVP
