I mentioned Deemoney earlier. Bit off topic however.... I not long ago purchased a condo from UK guy. There was a misunderstanding and I paid him in cash. I sent him to Deemoney as he was returning UK in few days. Subsequently he needed all the land office transfers and blue book etc.

Current thread on this. Keep eye on replies. https://aseannow.com/topic/1325538-non-immigrant-o-visa-based-on-marriage-savannakhet-vientiane-or-which-is-easiest/

Do you know how many folk post regarding entry to Thailand via air using visa exempt. It's like a recycle bin. Fills every day. There has NEVER been ONE account remotely similar to your account. Done with chit chat. Post factual accounts.

Why did you need to do that. If you entered Thailand with a non O marriage from UK ... The 400k does not need to come from overseas for extension

How did you try and transfer funds back to UK? Also VERY few would be in your situation regarding wife having Financials covered both for living and obtaining extensions. Point of your thread?

You will require 400k in your Thai bank account in your name for subsequent extensions. Cleary wife can cover that ongoing. As for the funds already sent its not big money sort it with wife and plan for ongoing extensions.

What will he and wife live on while living in Thailand.

Your OP makes very little sense. As @Stocky pointed out. How do you plan to live in Thailand Money wise. The funds only need to remain in bank for 2 months + under consideration period. Then you can use it. Regarding sending funds to UK which options did you try. Surely you looked at DEE money

Post exact details of your "friends" experience with what appears to be very limited stays in Thailand using visa exempt entries. Many do this extensively without issue. Perhaps @Pattaya57 can relate his personal experience. BTW not unique his is a common experience in fact.

OP, an appointment is required at Vientiane. Savannahket not.

Doubt it. You are referring to a non O-A that has a validity of one year and is multi entry visa. Almost certain that he does not have that. His entry stamp will show that. With a non O-A he would be stamped in for 12 months.

I suspect that you have a single entry non o based on retirement. Look at the stamp you were given upon entry. I assume you will see a 90 day permission of stay. That visa is now used. To exit Thailand and protect your stamp you will need to obtain single reentry permit. This can be done at airport. 1000b Which airport will you exit from

Read the thread. The information you posted is incorrect. Along with the reference to "friend" that entered TWICE last year using visa exempt. You stated .... "going on, I know someone who has been refused travel from UK having travelled on exempt 2 times in the last year." That is nonsense. If refused "travel from Uk" it would possibly be issue of boarding pass with no onward flight.

Surprised this thread made it to 5 pages without being closed.

An update from @miaclarkson03 would be very helpful to forum. One would have imagined at immigration doors early today.

In this thread attached ubonjoe mentions this "rule" think he refers to 2016 and gives bit of background. Your statement here best sums up the situation. https://aseannow.com/topic/1138484-any-validity-to-the-180-day-year-rule/

No

All good. Thread closed

No need for him to do anything regards tm30 unless he needs to deal with immigration eg extension

No such law/rule

Don't worry about 90 day report.

The limit of 2 per calendar year refers to land and sea. No stated limit via air.

The 2 posters that replied are correct. You have your answer. Thread closed

He can do it via mail or in person. Most likely online will be rejected.
