  1. Process and requirements outlined in this thread. https://aseannow.com/topic/1308175-reentry-permit-at-chaengwattana-rd-bangkok-immigration/ Reentry permits also available at airports. Very easy process vs trip to CW. At airport they have a service of filling in form with photo TM8 etc 200b
  2. Don't know what visa you are asking about. There is a METV (multi entry tourist visa). Can provide stay of almost 9 months. There is a SETV (single entry tourist visa). Can provide stay of up to 90 days with Extension. Read this thread on the METV and indicate which visa you are wanting https://aseannow.com/topic/1280542-metv-visa-staying-in-thailand-for-up-to-9-months/
  3. If flying out obtaining reentry permit at airport best option imo..
  4. This came up not long ago. Many posting along the lines ... "Nothing to stop you" I'm not so convinced. Might come down to the old.... "depends on the immigration office"
  5. Just provide last hotel TM30 prior to attending immigration
  6. OP, you are referring to ME Non O (Multiple entry Non O) visa valid for 12 months? Edit: op seems your plan is to just keep obtaining non O single entry visa (misunderstood you) Is your plan to do this back to back ongoing?
  7. Don't think flight tickets would be required, however if have them take along photocopies. Certainly have the approval eVisa print out. Think your list has you covered.
  8. No. When your METV was issued it has a validity period. The METV provides a 60 day permission of stay for each entry. That POS can also be extended by 30 days. Most folk with that visa do an exit/reentry just prior to expiry of visa. Good planning the METV provides stay of 9 months in Thailand. OP, suggest you check the stamp in your pp from most recent entry. Also check the eVisa. It will have an "until" date. This is what @Sheryl is referring to in replies
  9. That's correct. CW were doing that around 2020/21 Of course some immigration offices do the TM47 as part of extension process. I suggested earlier to OP that he grab que ticket for the 90 report attend his appointment for extension. With any luck the io will do his report. If not he has a que ticket for report. All bit irrelevant as the OP has made appointment for the 90 Report on Thurs and going back Fri for extension.
  10. If she is staying in a hotel and has a booking she can show that. Some folk that do not have a hotel booking just use company such as Agoda and book accommodation for few nights with fully refundable policy. "Pay at hotel" option even better.
  11. She does not need a tourist visa but certainly an option if it can be applied for while in china She can enter Thailand visa exempt and obtain an 30 day extension.
  12. To add to @Crossy post. She doesn't need to do anything once in Thailand as she will be stamped in for 30 days and as her stay is only 23 days does not need to apply for extension. Does not even need to concern herself with TM30 etc. Assume she has return/onward flight as airline at departure may want to see that
  13. Sorry but it's not clear. I asked..."which Visa are you applying for" Possible answers Tourist visa, non O visa etc Also asked "where are you applying for the Visa" Then you mention "she will be here in 23 days" I don't follow..
  14. Which Visa are you applying for. Where are you applying for the Visa?
  15. Age. Location in Thailand. How did you enter Thailand How long would you like to stay in Thailand
  16. I understand your logic. For the record ...I once attended CW for extension and my report was overdue couple of days. The io noticed and started to deal with his computer with my last TM47 in hand. I stopped him and explained that I did it via mail and for him not to do it. Point is they can be helpful. The issue now is the doc check chicks now (last couple of years) check for TM47 receipt. Think your idea of going day early for report a good idea. Or if possible push back (few hours) your extension appointment and do the 90 report early same day
  17. Let's put it this way.....the io at extension desk can do it. Will he/she do it is another matter. Suggest when you arrive at CW rather than go downstairs to do banking stuff...go to que desk and get ticket for TM47. After you take care of your extension check the que numbers in the 90 report desk area. If not big wait you can choose to wait or leave.
  18. You need to provide more details of your entire trip to Asia. From what you so far have outlined you would not even require a visa. Enter Thailand visa exempt. Few days later visit Cambodia. Back to Thailand enter visa exempt. Obtain extension (30 days) to your exempt entry. Not suggesting that is best formula. Just showing that without complete itinerary hard to give best advice.
  19. How long do you want to stay in Thailand. Also are you aware that non O from Canberra embassy requires insurance.
  20. Thanks for report. Good to read TM30 was not asked for. That is also my experience. Re the TM47 receipt, think you will find that if it was not in your pp they would have asked for it. My last two extensions at CW they have asked for 90 day report receipt
  21. Still means overstay. That stamp was 2 hours. Some have the word Lenient
  22. Depending on her pp country ., Many folk are visa exempt to Vietnam. Having said that ......as others have suggested a one overstay is not a problem
  23. Best example today of most irrelevant post. The OP did not ask about use of agents not to mention advice to ignore 90 day reporting. Your post is off topic.
  24. You can enter visa exempt= 30 days. You can extend that by 30. You can extend that by "60 days to visit wife" Many other combinations to cover your stay. Note: your Thai wife needs to enter on her Thai pp and not UK
  25. Jomitien is a weird office in regards to this process. They want 800k for 2 months prior to application for the Non O. In reality the rule is 800k on day of application. For the 12 month extension they want 2 months seasoning.
