    The requirement for onward flight will be at departure from airline issuing boarding pass. On arrival that would not be required and funds only if many entry to Thailand visa exempt. Back to back
  2. DrJack54
    Your point? If EU passport you will receive 60 visa exempt stamp.
  3. DrJack54
    The OP is not in Pattaya and did not indicate intention to use Pattaya agent. What eg Maneerat can do in Pattaya cannot be done in Bangkok
  4. DrJack54
    You have a visa to enter Thailand. Don't understand your concerns. BTW : If you start a thread with your personal experience of obtaining the DTV in UK that would be very helpful.

    OP post from thread quiz with topic British Comedies... "I just completed this quiz. My Score 80/100 My Time 144 seconds " My guess UK. Very frustrating when basic info not posted in the OP. Also when folk start a thread and simultaneously exit.
  6. DrJack54
    Off topic reply removed. The OP specifically asked for recommendations for agent
  7. DrJack54
    It's not visa on arrival. It's "Visa Exempt Entry" Currently 60 days and can be extended by 30 days. Some folk use this company for onward ticket..."onwardticket.com" Clarify passport country. From some of your other posts. UK?
  8. DrJack54
    Thinking I endorsed your plan in OP. Which is certainly an option. Perhaps consider obtain a non O eVisa in UK . The financials can be in UK bank. Then enter and be given 90 day stamp.
  9. DrJack54
    When you reenter your stamp will match expiry of the health insurance cover you supply
  10. DrJack54
    Think I have already posted.. No seasoning for non O application. Funds in bank on day of application. The two months seasoning is for 12 months extension Note: apart from rogue office Jomitien where there can require 2 month seasoning for non O application. Ridiculous.
  11. DrJack54
    So to advise others what was the "significant sum"
  12. DrJack54
    The OP did not ask about border run agents. Some replies have covered that option. Further posts removed re agents
  13. DrJack54
    You are confusing the process. You plan to enter visa exempt. When you apply for the non O your 800k need to be in bank on day of application. The non O stamp gives a 90 day permission of stay. In the last 30 days of that stamp expiry you apply for 12 month extension. With funds having been in bank for 2 months+

    In other words you obtained a visa for Laos using an agent.
  15. DrJack54
    Your posts are not clear/incorrect "The Laotian Government requires British passport holders to have a visa for entry into Laos"
  16. DrJack54
    That's not correct. An FD account is acceptable for using funds in bank method. However for extensions based on marriage the 400k can be used after final stamp is given. Don't follow the idea of FD account.
  17. DrJack54
    You stated in OP... "That said, now I'm decided to use Nong Khai, I'm still going to have a look about flights to Udon" You are aware of the options. Just do it.
  18. DrJack54
    Fine use private taxi. Don't understand what you are asking
  19. DrJack54
    In my years (way back) of border/visa runs, I would fly from Bangkok to UT and stay at bar area just behind central plaza. There is mini van from front of plaza to Friendship bridge. The taxi from airport to Udon Thani is now not a rip off.. Some tips are posted in attached thread https://aseannow.com/topic/1289254-laos-border-bounce-via-udon-thani-nong-khai-report-questions-hiccups/
  20. DrJack54
    Your plan looks fine. Out of interest is the plan to fly Bangkok to Udon Thani?
  21. DrJack54
    No
  22. DrJack54
    From another thread asking about changing from money in bank method to income method here is a cut and paste post from ubonjoe. "You will need to keep the 800k baht in the bank for 3 months after you apply for your curren extension and then 400k baht until you apply for your next extension using the 65k baht income option."
  23. DrJack54
    Some suggest 800/400/400 is all that required. As a "cover all bases" I'm planning on doing 800/400/800. The reason being that if any issue with income method (,eg pension certificate) etc.,..then I have fall back option of continue with funds in bank method
  24. DrJack54
    Exactly what I'm currently in process of doing. Using funds in bank method and from date of last extension have been making monthly deposits of 65k+
  25. DrJack54
    The OP indicated 20 days early and that is plenty to allow for any slip up When the non O and 90 day permission of stay is given the normal process is to apply as early as 30 days remaining and 45 at some offices. Agents do it in one hit. OP is not using an agent. The plan he outlines is sound..
