You don't need a tourist visa. You don't need to spend time in Singapore. A visa exempt entry provides 30 day permission of stay. You can attend your local immigration office with couple of weeks remaining on your stamp and obtain a 30 day extension. That 30 days will be added to your visa exempt entry stamp. Providing 60 day stay. Cost 1900baht. Where will you be staying in Thailand?

That's disappointing. Recently I applied for eVisa to Vietnam and received back that my application omitted my middle name and for me to provide that change to application. Point is I had advice how to fix the issue. How long do you plan to visit Thailand. A plan B could be to exit visa exempt+ extension+ border run for second visa exempt entry..

Here is ubonjoe general list. Note his second point. "Unless using CW you require 2 copies..." https://aseannow.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=843557&key=2caaa6b16bae18dd24e0a61253734932 Not a big deal to provide 2 sets of docs.

State your immigration office seems wise thing to do..

She can piggyback on your extension based on dependent. She needs to enter Thailand on a non O not visa exempt or tourist visa. This attached thread has not much info however has link to another thread that does. https://aseannow.com/topic/1318143-to-get-a-dependent-extension-is-it-necessary-to-start-from-a-90-days-non-o/ First step is marriage. If you wish to move to Thailand sooner she could obtain a tourist eVisa using her UK pp. After marriage exit Thailand and obtain a non O. Where is she currently located.

The police clearance is straight forward. Not sure about the UK however assume same as Oz that it can be done online. As for the medical......some medical clinics would just sign the form and others insist on various tests. The cost would add up. Here is form. https://aseannow.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=600483 My understanding is that you can obtain the "certificate" in Thailand. Good idea would be to obtain one while still in Thailand at a local hospital. Be aware that your first extension from a non O-A would need to be based on retirement. Subsequent extensions could be based on marriage and those extensions do not require the pesky Insurance.

Slightly off topic however... If you haven't been to Vietnam I would definitely look into that. Ripper place. As German pp holder you have visa exempt option along with eVisa. Single one month 25usd and three month multiple 45usd. Very simple application.

You won't have issue with visa exempt via land you mention at end of your post. You could have applied for SETV or even METV from the start. Also the 30 day visa exempt entries could have been extended by 30 days.

Your single non O is used. You are extending your permission of stay. Why do you not book flight out on or prior to Jan 10. In any event yes you can do a border bounce without reentry permit to obtain 30 day visa exempt stamp. Seems lot of trouble for 8 days. Almost crazy.

It's not semantics. Your non O (visa) is not extended. Visas are not extended. You have a temporary permission of stay. It's a permit and if meeting requirements the POS can be extended.

Some immigration offices do that. They are wrong. 90 day report has nothing to do with extensions apart from very first extension.

No. Select the address that deals with the immigration office that you would deal with for things such as extensions etc. Make your TM47 reports to that office.

Understand the point you are making. Thread can run its course and close early June.

If income method proves impossible then you would use "money in bank method" That requires 800k baht in a Thai bank account in your name only on day of application for non O retirement (if obtained at immigration in Thailand) Also has requirement to maintain funds in bank. Are you in Thailand. Do you have a Thai bank account? Your other option is to use an agent to avoid bank requirements. Doing it yourself is preferred option.

Thinking Italian embassy provides "letter of income" unlike UK,USA,AU. After that you would need to show transfers of 65k baht every month for ongoing extensions.. In attached thread read posts from ubonjoe.

Passport country?

Yes. On the spot takes one minute. 4 photos = 100baht

Not sure if you are referring to bank statement listing all transactions for a year or bank letter for annual extension. Most banks are 200 and 100 respectively

This thread has some useful links from ubonjoe. https://aseannow.com/topic/1275570-visa-based-on-child/

Correct. The issue with Bangkok bank is that they need several days to provide bank statement (ridiculous) Kasikorn and most other banks can do it on the spot.. Thinking cost 200b. You can also provide "credit advice" to show international transfer.

No. However be aware that some things have changed re doing business with immigration. Not long ago I went to CW to have stamps transferred to new pp. They insisted upon me providing my bank book and photocopies of pages and an update to demonstrate I maintained the financials. This was never a previous requirement.

Correct. I was thinking places eg PP Cambodia. As you correctly pointed out... METV is meant to be applied for in own country or country where you have legal residence.

That is a given. Some embassies do not even do back to back SETV and people tend to apply at various embassies.

No. I was referring to my take on entry to Thailand with history of long ongoing stay in Thailand. Granted some of yours is due to the covid amnesty etc. @Chalky0w is correct. Even with a valid Visa you can be refused entry. Examples of this occured at Bangkok airports 2019. Granted it's not common.

Just one persons opinion... I believe it's not just time spent in Thailand but even more the time spent out of Thailand. In OP,s previous threads has indicated extensive stays ongoing in Thailand since 2019.8 Has used Ed visa , tourist visas including current METV. Has also had the notorious non O volunteering and many visa exempt. Now asking about advice re another METV after one month out of Thailand. Asking a question no one can answer.
