As usual you are completely incorrect. The changes to TM30 rules June 2020 have been posted Often

Jomitien and few others ... CM another, just want to feel special. Just Rogue offices. The change in TM30 requirements were very clear June 2020. All folk can do it comply with their own immigration office.

As pointed out already. You have zero issues

First up thankyou and thinking you are correct. The 90 day multi after I entered my flight date I then tried to just jump to 3 months later for the until date. Turned out I had asked for 92 days and was asked to reenter less than 90. Which I did. Clearly what I failed to do was review application (all fields) prior to payment. This would account for same 15 day window for my application last Feb. A Warning for folk

Attend local immigration office . Have TM7 with photo 1900 Baht. Photocopy of your SETV Photocopy of entry stamp. ID page. TM30 (ask hotel prior to check in it the file the TM30 and provide screenshot

I previously started a thread regarding this So here is the issue... Last February I applied for single entry tourist visa (30 days) . The process was very simple. PROBLEM: When I received the eVisa by email it had an enter date and untill date. The thing is it was only 15 day stay. Fast forward to exit trip. I applied for 90 day multi. Was very careful filling in the dates. Again the email showed 15 day stay. I was accordingly stamped in for 15 days. Sitting in Saigon airport to fly to Oz. Coming back to Saigon in 18 days. Need to get another visa. Anyone obtained a visa to Vietnam recently?

As the OP has added information and seems that will be staying in Jomtien and he previously indicated he only requires 60 day stays then SETV would seem to be obvious choice.. His friend would not need to do a TM30 as he would not be having and dealings with immigration for eg extension.

The plan you outline is very clear and you have covered it clearly. No issues

Your plan will work. Be aware that it's possible to obtain a 60 day extension to visit wife to buy time. Here is a thread that covers the process with clear posts from ubonjoe. https://aseannow.com/topic/1233744-want-to-change-from-non-–-b-to-non-–-o-based-on-marriage-as-leaving-my-job/

With a ME Non O you could try bank without a certificate of residence. Suggest Kasikorn as they seem bit more fixable than Bangkok Bank. Note both those banks partner with WISE for international transfers. For certificate of residence immigration offices vary. A TM30 may be sufficient and a lease would be a bonus.

One minute is the norm however took me 20 minutes last week Wednesday at DMK Obviously folk should allow little bit of extra time.

Where do you plan to apply for second single entry tourist visa?

Immigration very rare to check for onward flight. It's an airline thing at departure.

No need. They will advise him to obtain a SETV and that option has been mentioned in the thread..

Within 60 days

OP, your post lacks detail. Are you currently in Thailand. If so what is your status....

Spot on...

Folk can not obtain one now from UK embassy.

Your friend sounds like a fool and many of your threads have similar theme. Basically nonsense.

First up thanks for the info you posted. The issue for some is that their embassies do not provide the embassy letter that you refer to. UK,USA,AU to name some. This "letter" is alternative to providing certificate of residence from immigration. In Bangkok that's impossible as to obtain COR you need to have filed a TM47. That's not possible for folk on tourist visa

Something missing here. What was the basis of your friends stay in Thailand. Did he have a non O. BTW it's not a letter from embassy confirming citizenship. It's a letter from embassy as an alternative to certificate of residence from immigration.

Please stop misinformation. If farang has a Thai bank account a passport is sufficient for transactions. "Drivers License" required is a nonsense. You are looking foolish.

Complete nonsense.

So you don't even cover your own expenses? .. A real catch .... The guy I quoted stated he had ZERO income.

With Zero income....surprised she didn't give you the flick sooner. You are supposed to take care of your own expenses and also some of hers.
