Many posts re having difficulty is often down to the address field. Perhaps not matching up with what's in the system. Leaving out room # or minor stuff. Fortunately after doing first one online the fields apart from first couple (name and pp #) are autofill.

I'm pretty sure that there is no field to enter TM6 # on new online submission.

You can obtain certificate of residence in Phuket from what you outline. Then possibly a bank account. That would not work in Bangkok. You could consider using agent for the bank account. Not expensive. Yes you can obtain a non O from a visa exempt or tourist visa entry. Without income letter from your embassy you would need to show 12 months of 65k deposits. If you don't want to have the 800k in bank you need an agent. They can do the bank account, non O and extension.

May be the case for Samui. Bank statements are required by some offices for both income method and money in the bank.

Think you will find for income method requires 12 months of statements. Also for money in the bank method for extensions retirement that also requires 12 month of bank statements.

Some immigration offices want to see the funds maintained during under consideration period. Have never read a report of issue if the funds were not maintained apart from a warning.

Photocopy of non O from old pp is sufficient. In addition the information relating to that visa would have been entered into your new pp in very first page. Provide photocopy of that page also.

Leave it blank

It's impossible to obtain 12 month bank statements on same day with some banks. Bangkok Bank being one. No idea of where "up here" is

The OP, used term "bank statement"....he was referring to the "bank letter".....

@djayz small tip. For subsequent online reports be aware that after you fill in first couple of fields (think it's name and pp #) you will notice small magnifying glass symbol.. Hit on that and all the rest is autofill.

Assume you are using this. All you require is your cell. https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/register/add

This thread seems to suggest otherwise. https://aseannow.com/topic/1243481-less-than-6-months-left-on-passport/

They should give you visa exempt entry stamp for 45 days currently or 30 days after March 31. 6 months validity rule is not required for entry to Thailand. Having stated that getting down to 3 months validity while overseas is crazy.

What does "runs out soon" Mean? Any entry stamp would only be till expiry of pp. Edit: are you asking about obtaining a visa or reentry visa exempt (border bounce)

Someone correct this if I'm dreaming. Vaguely recall someone being made to obtain the 30 day extension prior to the 60 to visit wife. And no I'm not referring to covid extensions of couple years back.

Agent for what. The OP is about moving away from using an agent in Thailand.

Cross bridge and straight back. There are crossings that do the one night thing. NK is not one of those.

You mean "bank letter" Most offices accept one up to 7 days prior to application. Samui is just a nonsense immigration office.

You need to be married. No thanks. BTW since the 400k only needs to be in bank for 2 .months plus under consideration period (some offices) why post about interest rates. Surely times ain't that tough.

The financials for extension marriage vs retirement are very different animals.

It's 2 months not 60 days. Why not wait couple of days. However 20 March should be fine

No

Don't see your point. So with negotiation the OP might agree to 1.2+ million. Why do folk sidetrack thread Was simple offer and if interested can PM the OP . If not read another thread.

You even wrote that it wasn't a joke yourself. Make your mind up The poster confirmed his post with reply. Sweep the rubbish away. The OP posted a serious offer and started a thread Rubbish replies are not required. Any elite visa resale has serious value. If someone is serious they would PM the OP. No need for nonsense replies. BTW you quoted me out of context ... "I don't call that a joke." That was a cut . By you. 1,700baht is a joke.
