Early reporting?? A question
DrJack54 replied to Felton Jarvis's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Most folk using online reporting apply approx 15 days early. The 90 day count starts from date of application. For in person and mail the count starts from previous due date. Bottom line is online approx 4 reports per year and other options 3 per year. No big deal as online reports so quick and simple. (when it's working) -
Indeed. There are approx 75 immigration offices in Thailand. Read the OP. It is CW specific. CM is off the chats regarding TM30. They have ave ignored changes to TM30 made in June 2020. There are always immigration offices playing their own game. For example Jomtien wanting 800k in bank for 2 months prior to application for a non O from visa exempt or TV. When in fact only required on day of application Another rogue office. Folk are always advised to check with own immigration office as indeed there is no set rule book in Thailand.

Extension of stay without a visa
DrJack54 replied to craighj's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The majority of immigration offices require a TM30 for 30 day extension to visa exempt and tourist visa. Which immigration office did you not require a TM30 for "10+ times" -
Early reporting?? A question
DrJack54 replied to Felton Jarvis's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You don't need to print out the TM47 receipt unless you are attending immigration for something such as a certificate of residence etc. Also never required to exit Thailand. -

15 days prior either in person or online or via mail. https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/register/add -
Your first hurdle will be to obtain a certificate of residence. At CW you need to have done a 90 day report to obtain one. There is a forum that deals with all motor vehicles, TDL etc. Mor Chit specific thread here.. https://aseannow.com/topic/1224589-thai-driving-licence-renewal-mo-chit-as-at-19-july-2021/

Exactly. Even with a visa you can run into an A##h immigration officer. I always suggest to have a travel itinerary to flop out. Obvious moreso for visa exempt entry. Chill .,with visa you will go straight through.

The OP has a visa. Did you have a visa when asked for proof of 20k.. The business class is completely irrelevant.
-
You require nothing. You have a METV. What do you imagine that you would need at departure or arrival? Some folk may suggest have cash but it won't be asked for

What on earth is TM30 ?!
DrJack54 replied to AndrewMciver's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
A Non O-A provides a 2 year stay and does not require funds to be maintained in a Thai bank account. Suits some folk that visit home country at minimum every two years. The insurance is a pain but certainly the non O-A suits some folk. -
It is possible however not best option imo. He has time to obtain one year of insurance when he arrives. Then exit and reenter Thailand prior to non O-A expiry Sept 10 and will be given 12 month stamp. No financial requirements. The other alternative is to exit and kill off the non O-A and obtain non O and subsequent extension. No insurance requirements.

Bank Letter for Immigration (Income method)
DrJack54 replied to Daffy D's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I think you will be fine if the monthly transfers have been for previous 12 months prior to your next extension. You would need bank statements for 12 months and code showing international transfer. Which bank do you use. Here is thread with clear advice from ubonjoe. https://aseannow.com/topic/1270868-combo-method-for-the-money-requirement-for-a-retirement-visa-extension/ -
Ignore the notice and do it online in 75 days from date of entry. When you use autofill in the online report remember to change your entry date
-
Bit of a mess as he is flying tomorrow. You are correct he will only be stamped in till Sept 30. He could immediately obtain health insurance and exit and reenter Thailand prior to Sept 10 and be given 12 month stamp. OR he could (as you outlined) exit Thailand at end of his non O-A and enter Thailand visa exempt then obtain non O and subsequent extension

Retirement visa in country

Forget the non O-A. Here is thread re enter Thailand visa exempt and obtain a non O retirement and subsequent extension. https://aseannow.com/topic/1297092-non-o-visa-retirement-purpose/ https://aseannow.com/topic/1282251-visa-exempt-to-non-o-retirement-dates/ -

Tourist Visa Advice
DrJack54 replied to kevozman1's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That is incorrect info. You are allowed 2 visa exempt via land border per calendar year. Each visa exempt entry provides 30 day stamp that can be extended by 30 days. There are many options for your plans. Just one example is enter via air visa exempt and obtain an extension= 60 days. Then do your two border bounces + extensions= 120 days. 6 month. OR take mini break to place such as Saigon instead of border bounce and reenter visa exempt via air. -
Reentry permit at Don Mueang Airport
DrJack54 replied to OzMan's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes. Just the other side of immigration (passport check) is reentry permit desk. Very quick process. You can see the office as io is stamping you out. The io seeing your stamp may tell you that you need to obtain a reentry permit. Good idea to have the TM8 all filled out along with photo.
