90 Day Reporting Online
DrJack54 replied to Admiral Hornblower's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Not really as they are unrelated. Which office did a 90 report for you when you applied for extension. Edit: just saw your reference to Phuket. -
Covid-19 visa extensions ending
DrJack54 replied to edwarda909's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Firstly if he had a tourist visa he would have obtained covid extension at CW. Think you mean visa exempt entry. If it was his first extension he would be made to obtain standard 30 day extension to his visa exempt entry. -
Covid Extension - ,Krabi Town !!!!
DrJack54 replied to RedArmy's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
He obtained a 60 day covid extension. That 60 days starts for expiry of his current extension. Some immigration offices were dating the first CE from day of application. This is not his first.. His extension dates from April 8 and that takes him to approx June 9.. -
Thanks for input. At a guess that would be costly.. If was opting for that I would just put in new kitchen. Bit unrelated but someone looked today and hooked up a one year lease. Good deal for them. So now it's just up to finish off upgrade. Will post a full breakdown of costs when finished in a week and a bit. Might be helpful to some.

DrJack54 replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
My sentiments exactly. Just remember the old adage. ..... Misery Loves Company. -
Not Finished. Thought would be obvious. Thai guy doing the job with son and 2 other blokes. His name Kun Wee. Yes I'm aware how to crop photos. Thanks for the valuable input.

Elite Visa- allabout it
DrJack54 replied to elgenon's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That's exactly correct. You would need to meet the same requirements as someone without a PE. Think you will find in near future things will relax regarding travel. Hold tight and travel in near future to los. Edit: op, you may not be aware of agents such as ThaiVisaCentre that assist with paperwork to travel to Thailand. You still need to upload some docs to them but it's an option. -
Elite Visa- allabout it
DrJack54 replied to elgenon's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
How old? PE (elite visa) is a great option for younger folk not eligible for non O retirement. Waste of dosh if over 50 imo. 600k for 5 years...Nup. Better off with 800k in a Thai bank and have agent assist you with extensions. -
Non 0 visa 90 day report query
DrJack54 replied to Foreignheight6foot2's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Not really. Generally the io would not be interested in your 90 day report. True some offices ask for 90 report receipt for extensions. Don't know why. If was mentioned by io just state that you did it via mail and awaiting your receipt. -
Update might be helpful to anyone doing makeover. So settlement March 10. The workers started March 15. Incredibly fast. I guess team of 4 helps. Unpleasant job. Remove all wall paper and repaint.

Price includes floor "glue" and paint. Remove and install curtail rods 3. Miscellaneous works. Installation on granite kitchen bench. Disposal of all waste such as tiles etc etc. Minor things such as drain connection, electric hob connection etc etc. Total 61k. Extras: Granite bench top 8k.

Finally an accurate post. -
Non 0 visa 90 day report query
DrJack54 replied to Foreignheight6foot2's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
There was recent report along the lines of what your stating. The 90 report "next date" was given up to the end of permit. I don't believe that's the norm. I would do the report and if something silly happens just do another at same time as your next extension. -
Covid extensions after March 25?
DrJack54 replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I would have sat there and not said one word. Rule #1 never sidetrack an immigration officer when they are in process of granting an extension. Good news on straight forward extension. As it should be.. -
Multiple Visa Exemptions
DrJack54 replied to Richard3456's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Appreciate your post and the info that the graphic outlines. You can rest assured that your METV will be approved. -
Multiple Visa Exemptions
DrJack54 replied to Richard3456's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Ok so that rules out obtaining non O and extension. You have option to use agent for that visa and extension. Where do you plan to obtain a METV? Think your options are clear assuming this starts after borders are open and entry requirements to Thailand and surrounding countries minimal. -
Non 0 visa 90 day report query
DrJack54 replied to Foreignheight6foot2's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
What are you planning to do after your expiry of permit, April 7? In any event just do the report. Online is not difficult. -
Multiple Visa Exemptions
DrJack54 replied to Richard3456's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Your reason is for tourism. That's it. I was under the impression that METV can only be obtained in home country or country where you are a permanent resident. -
Multiple Visa Exemptions
DrJack54 replied to Richard3456's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
OP, with 2 years of covid we are soon to be in uncharted waters. Some folk here now for couple of years with amnesty and covid extensions will soon be flying out of Thailand hopeful to return visa exempt. As yet not enough reports of exit to perhaps Phnom Penh (for example) and return. The few I've read were obtaining a visa. In one case a non O. Others intending to obtain tourist visa. Given your history can't see why you could not enter visa exempt. -
Covid extensions after March 25?
DrJack54 replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Pretty much. And when land borders are open (at least some) then covid extensions would not be necessary. Over the chit chat. Ignore. -
Covid extensions after March 25?
DrJack54 replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
So you bang on in threads about folk should not be obtaining covid extensions and that the form is a LIE.... and they can easily return home. However when it suits you (exchange rates) you avail yourself to obtaining a CE. BTW you have option of obtaining non O or extension based on retirement. Many do not have that option. Poor form. -
Covid extensions after March 25?
DrJack54 replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Can you explain why you obtained a covid extension. Jetstar has plenty of flights back to Oz. Direct flights and not expensive.
