Just for advice to others.... despite your experience of not requiring to show print out of eVisa to enter via land crossing for those traveling by air you must print out the visa. Airline staff need it to check against your pp and also to check if it's valid. On arrival at airport in Thailand immigration will also check it..

@roger101 as, pointed out above. Extension of stay based on what. Meaning... Marriage, Retirement etc? Money in bank or income method? Which immigration office?

Sounds naive. Buy clothing online. So how much baht are we talking here. On gift to smaller Thai friend and move on.

The ME was perfect option for roster workers. Oil/gas and mining for one example. One on month off was not suitable for Non O marriage extensions due to under consideration period.

Trolling post removed

@Wongkitlo think you mentioned that an agent offered "instant service" to obtain the Non O e-Visa for 5k. Do you think that was genuine.

Why not. Do it online 15 days prior to due date. If you opt to skip you would also be fine. Correct. However must be done in person. You could try mail option

Not sure how that pans out for those using Bangkok Bank where the 12 month bank statement needs to be done in advance. It's common practice to obtain bank statements, Letter etc days prior.

That would work for travel however if for example you are doing annual extensions then the stamps and visa info needs to be transferred to new pp prior to any dealings with immigration such as, extension, COR etc Best to do the transfer when convenient or when you have business with immigration.

I'm not so sure about TM30 being required by law if returning to usual place of residence after travel abroad entering on same visa or reentry permit. There were changes made in 2020 as outlined in attached thread. In particular point 2.2 https://aseannow.com/topic/1169664-thai-immigration-announce-changes-to-tm30-reporting/ Seems in recent times a TM47 along with new TM30 is required after travel abroad. However it gets better..... turn up at immigration to do a TM30 and you may be told "not required"

The insurance requirement is relatively recent. As posted above ...many folk have killed off their Non O-A. Starting over is not huge task. You have been given advice re options moving forward. Up to you.

In vast majority of cases it will be back to point of last departure. Anyone thinking that they can fly from eg UK to Thailand and if refused entry can nominate eg Saigon as their preferred next flight are sadly mistaken.

No. From the OP.... "No, it had nothing to do with the documents. She said they were all in order. Her entire issue was that we have only been married for 3 weeks"

They were no longer required at airports. Still required at some land border crossings. No. Nor would reentry permit, TM30, TM47 etc. Here is link for next time. https://tdac.immigration.go.th/arrival-card/#/home Can be done up to 3 days prior to entry. Regardless you do not have permanent resident status in Thailand. You have a temporary permission of stay.

You can check status here https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/login You are given two options. You can check status. When approved there is file to download if you need it.

Haven't seen that Jomtien specific form. Where it states "because" I would be inclined to write passport full.. Or Passport due to expire. Think you will find not really required. Here is link to docs for CW. In reality most not required. Be aware some offices also wanting bank book, photocopies and update. https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Transfer-Stamp-to-New-Passport-Form.pdf

Up to 90 days no ban. 14days=7k Seems like poor planning. Border bounce would have been an option. Take overstay lightly at your own peril

NO. Have funds in pocket ready to pay fine at airport. For others., if only few days required you can apply for an extension at immigration and that will be rejected and you will be given 7 days to exit Thailand.

Overstay nothing to do with bank account. Unusual question. Length of overstay? Fine is 500/day capped at 20k

Bank required docs such as "bank letter" "12 months bank statement" Can be obtained prior to day of application. Max 7 days however day prior good option. Some offices require a bank book update on day of application. Small deposit also good idea.

To be fair... The Non O-A visa was a fantastic option for many prior to introduction of insurance requirement

The OP (from another thread) was posting and in Thailand in January. Doubt he has a 90 day permission of stay from a ME Non O. In any event he could clarify.

It would. In any event the OP never had a Non O-A

The OP does not have the passport with original visa stamp. In any event it's clear that he had a Non O and doing extensions based on retirement.

@Wongkitlo you have a Non O and have been stamped into Thailand for 90 days (as you stated) Thanks for posting that. This is great news for those looking to obtain a Non O. A process time of not much more than a day is fantastic.
