What you mean is that the report was not required. 90 day report is only due for 90 consecutive days spent in Thailand.

How do you miss a report while out of the country. None would be required.

At immigration or airport at departure. Form TM8 with photo and some basic photocopies. At BKK they do the process for you for 200baht Which airport will you exit Thailand from.

You are not answering the question. The OP is asking when his 90 report date clock start when obtaining his FIRST extension from a non O

Yes. For single reentry permit for tourist visa (SETV) 1000baht.

Think you mean reminder from immigration for your 90 day online report. Ignore that Do your online report 75days + from your arrival date.

Doesn't matter if the hotels do TM30 or not. You are not changing your address. Do nothing.

They do. Savannakhet does not.

Take Joe's advice over anyone every day of the week.

I see your question. My thinking is clock starts from approval so that would be from Nov 29. Others will correct if this is wrong.

90 days from your extension stamp.

Yes better to apply early. Yes he will be given extension Monday.

Old rehashed topic. For online report the clock starts upon approval. Perhaps not the case in Udon Thani. Certainly is at many other offices including CW.

It's also morning drop off and pm pick up next day at Saigon. Point of difference is that Saigon requires appointment and Savannakhet does not. Cheap return flights to Saigon and very convenient for folk handy to Bangkok. As for turning the visa run into short holiday Saigon hands down winner.

I'm not part of that consensus. I stated earlier that OP will be fine and added comment of best plan is always to do it early. Here is old thread but nothing has changed. In particular (as usual) take note of ubonjoe posts in the thread.

Yes. You are talking about 30yrs ago. If you are over 50 you can obtain a non O retirement. How long do you wish to visit Thailand? Better options than a non O

Yes. I suggest you count due date as day 1 for the 7 day count.

When you quote someone include who you are quoting. Just as per my quote from you here. Think it's actually a forum rule As for your posts in general nearly always regarding Phuket. That's very helpful if OP deals with that office. He does not.

From the OP..... "I've also been asking to get a rental contract sorted with him, but again "he's too busy"......"

Put simply the agent provides money in the bank however it is not maintained. Immigration has discretion/ability to overlook the financial requirements. The agent will obtain extension based on retirement. Many on AseanNow cry wolf about this and claim it's corruption etc. That's a war of words been going on for years Bottom line is that the stamps in your pp are legal. If people have the funds available i pretty much always suggest that you can do it yourself without the use of an agent. Without reading back over the whole thread, I think I recall that you did not meet the financials during the last 12 months. If that's the case you would need to exit Thailand and kill off your existing extension (btw it's not valid) reenter and obtain new non O retirement and subsequent extension. I would see an agent immediately.

So this is posted in a forum that does not allow illegal practices?

I do mine as soon as I receive the reminder email (which is 15 days early). Quick easy process. So yes works out I do one "extra" per year however of no consequence since such a quick easy process.

Yes

Correct. When doing it online the clock stats from approval date. In person clock should start from due date which also applies to reports done via mail.

Certificate? ....meaning residence certificate? He is asking about is a TM30 sufficient for annual extensions. Some (most) immigration offices will accept a TM30. Some may want to see a lease.
