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/

To be clear... You are currently married to a Thai? Not asking about visit Thai child.

OP, your post is so vague. Your online work is irrelevant. What does "I'm a student" mean. State your nationality. How long you would plan (hope) to stay in Thailand. etc etc Then you will receive some advice.

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

OP, apart from post above (which is correct) ... Suggest you chat with UT immigration office. Immigration can allow early application for extension especially if you can provide flight details and romance the stone re need exit and return to Thailand.

OP, is the border bounce for your multi entry visa. Where are you located? If Bangkok, I could think of lot worse than a mini break in Saigon. You may be eligible for visa exempt entry to Vietnam.

Excellent report and detail. Ta!

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.

Guessing by que # you are referring to appointment which is required at Vientiane

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

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/

Single reentry 1000b. Multiple 3800b

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.

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.

Hopefully someone can post personal experience and outline the process they went through to obtain a Non O-X in Thailand.

OP, some info in this thread. Ubonjoe posts only available from Thai embassies or consulates. Despite some links stating otherwise. They are a very rare visa with good reason..

Indeed. Immigration can allow you to to apply early more than the 30 days. A flight ticket out would assist your request.

It's possible, depending on dates. You would require a reentry permit. I would not recommend it. What's so important to exit during approx one month under consideration period. Not a good plan. If very important I would discuss with your immigration office your plan. Have you previously used your one 60 day extension to visit wife. That could change under consideration window
