  1. Almost certain he dealing with Jomitien.
  2. You using Jomitien? That's only office I'm aware of that is requiring 800k for 2 months for Non O application. Not applicable to most folk obtaining Non O + extension from visa exempt entry
  3. Here is thread. Take note of posts towards end from @Tod Daniels Seems can be problematic at land borders. Suggest you use minivan border run company and discuss with them. https://aseannow.com/topic/1334270-new-passport/
  4. Along with reentry permit definitely best option. Then he would need to use agent. Extension to his visa exempt entry is only 30 days. It will be issued at his local immigration office if he applies Regards last part of your question. Agents needs couple of weeks. Where is he located
  5. Yes. Understand now. I would probably have done it differently. Just run down the 800k and the 65k transfers you have been doing stop and allow the funds consolidate in home country. At 65k/month living expenses the 800k will be gone in a year. I have similar (but different) situation. Currently using money in bank method. Don't want issues with my Thai partner not having access to the 800k. I considered using agent and ultimately have decided to switch to income method. With forward planning that would have been an option for you.
  6. What's that mean. You either continue with extensions and meet the financial requirements OR use an agent DEE Money is good option.. The 65k per month transfers is for income method. Don't understand much of your post..
  7. Immigration offices can request hard copy of both and some do. At some offices you won't get past doc check chicks without them
  8. That would have started the clock for next report...however you exited Thailand and clock reset when you reentered Thailand on Oct 25.
  9. I didn't provide TM47 for my most recent annual extension CW Nov 5
  10. OP, covered here.... https://aseannow.com/topic/1329985-new-passport-how-to-leave-thailand/
  11. Don't know what you mean by "I had recently done my 90 days and it's due again now" Reentry to Thailand starts you 90 day count. From app..... "Your starting date is October 25, 2024 so that means that 89 days later would be January 22, 2025." Keep in mind if you opt for mail then need to post 15 days prior to that date..
  12. I answered earlier how to change from agent to DIY "Not huge hurdle to change back however best option would be to exit Thailand without reentry permit just prior to expiry. Reenter Thailand visa exempt and "start over" Visa exempt entry to non O retirement and subsequent extension"
  13. Correct. The OP is from Spain. Guessing he will see the financial requirements for his Non O marriage upon application process
  14. Don't get overwhelmed. You have Thai wife so there is a conduit there. Keep in mind as soon as the extension is granted (final stamp) the 400k can be used for whatever.. 2 months prior to next extension you go back up to 400k. Wash and repeat.
  15. Yes , as stated earlier funds for extension do not need to be shown from abroad. The send to wife account will work. Re bringing in funds on person ..it's not about loss of funds etc. It's more about silly way to bring large funds into Thailand
  16. Correct. If married to a Thai you could obtain 60 day extension to visit wife. There is no other extension to your current permission of stay. Don't overstay. Your options are clear
  17. Yes. The funds for extension does not need to come from abroad Nothing to do with WISE. The post you were quoting was about bringing funds into Thailand on your person. Years ago I used to have $10k aud on me. That was the limit without declaration. In any event skip that. Bad idea
  18. Yep really depends where you are located If you do the renewal + reentry permit then you can return any time. Kill it off would mean start over. Downside is locking up funds in Thai bank account
  19. Please post link to "latest regulations" 50k baht.
  20. There is no "extension for month or two" unless married to a Thai. Your options bit influenced by plans for next 12 months.. If you don't wish to renew 12 month extension and buy reentry permit then you could border bounce for 60 day visa exempt stamp
