Sorry to re bring this back up, you have to pass immigration before getting a reentry permit? 

If I do this at the airport - do they open 24/7 and what do I need? how long does it take?

Thanks

Extension given in Chiang Mai (TM30 in Chiang Mai) but want to get a reentry permit at Cheangwattana, what do I need to do to get this and how long does it take say if I arrived at 9am?

I know I can do at the airport on leaving but scared that I will face issues and lose the visa so doing it early would feel more comfortable.

Thanks

Thanks all

I currently use a non-o extension based on Thai child with 400k in the bank, this doesn't have to be in the bank for a set time frame.

I'm now married to my child's mother, can I still use the same extension or do I need to do the marriage extension which require money to be held?

Don't like tying money up so would ideally like to use the child extension but want to be prepared. The issue will be my wife, who had to sign on the child extension before we were married, has my name so it's obvious that I am now married? Will the old papers I used still suffice?

Advise would be appreciated, thanks.

Not sure what your problem was. Just went on the site and only completed my last name and the other required fields and got the usual message to contact my local office due to my old entry and new passport.

Tried leaving surname blank and putting only the first name and go the message to enter it.

When did you get the message to enter your full name?

I successfully filled in the form using all the required fields, this was submitted OK and I heard back 4 days later that it was not approved and the comment from the officer was 'please provide full name'.

As it is not required on the form this is absurd. I've done it this way for ages.

What is the fine for failing to do 90 day report?

Did the 90 day report online as I've done may times and this time it was rejected 'please fill in your full name'.

Why on earth is it not required to fill in your full name on the damn form????

I fill in every field with a red star - done this for a long time.

Now out of time to do online and I'm not going to immigration to do this - what is the fine and can I just pay the fine when do next extension, had enough of this nonsense.

To anyone doing 90 day report online, beware that non-mandatory fields may actually be mandatory, do they make it like this just to bugger people over and send you a response of rejection only when there is no time to re-do online??????

Edit - To make it clear I fill in the least amount of info possible as the system is so temperamental and often need to try multiple times before it works, I found originally that the least information the more likely it is to work, so stuck to that for the last at least 10 90 day reports. 

Or should I make a rental agreement to say I rent the house?

OK thanks however she doesn't have the house book yet.

Would it be advisable to just say I live at the address that my partner and child are in the house book? This would be easy to do?

It's not actually, my child and partner are on a different house book.

I actually remember, my proof of address was the address in my old work permit but now work permits don't have addresses in them.

Don't know how I can prove an address, I assume a car finance letter in my name would not be accepted?

Thanks!

I didn't show any proof of residence for the other extensions just the TM30.

Thanks again

Thanks Ubonjoe for all your help.

I could get a 60 day extension on the back of my 1 year extension? And this would not affect the unbroken extensions for residence? 

What kind of proof is required for residence, in Chiang Mai I live at my partners house (I hesitate to call it 'my' house)?

Used that same address for the past 2 extensions.

Thanks again

I'm having massive issues with my visa extension.

Lived in CM on extensions based on Thai child for a number of years using salary in Thailand and work permit to extend - no issues.

I get a new job in Bangkok, stay in Bangkok 2 to 3 days a week then spend rest of time in Chiang Mai, I'm allowed to work from home a lot.

Have BOI work permit issued in Bangkok and the company I work for is based in Bangkok.

I thought I need to extend in Bangkok - Cheang Wattana refused as my child goes to school in Chiang Mai.

Went to BOI and they refused to extend to non-b extension, need to leave the country get new visa and can extend but I don't want to waste my current 2 years unbroken extensions.

I could extend based on money in the bank route however I have been told by one visa agent new rules so need to be in the bank for 2 months even Thai child. Not possible as have to transfer money in and extension is due in 2 weeks.

So can I extend in Chiang Mai based on Thai child using my BOI work permit that was issued in Bangkok and using the companies paper work all Bangkok? Or because I technically work in Bangkok I need to extend in Bangkok and therefore I can't do anything?

thanks all

Sorry last question.

I have a Bangkok Bank account based in Bangkok in foreign currency.

Can I use a foreign currency account as long as the amount in equals 400k baht +? And can the bank account be from a branch in Bangkok even though I will extend in Chiang Mai?

thanks

Thanks, if I got the letter on Sunday could I show it on Monday?

Sorry to add to this:

Can I apply for the extension with as little as 5 days remaining on my current extension?

Appears I've exhausted all other options (sorry for the number of threads).

In all my extensions I've never used the money in the bank route before?

1. For Thai child I understand it only has to be in the bank 1 day for applying? And it's 400k?
2. What do I have to get from the bank? What do I need to ask them? And can I ask a bank out of hours in a mall for example? (Had other issues here)
3. My current TM30 is in Bangkok but I have my old TM30 from Chiang Mai at partners hours - do I need to redo the Chiang Mai TM30 before applying?
4. If I need to redo the TM30 (this is my partners house) what does she need to show? Or can she just fill in the form saying I moved back from Bangkok?

Thanks

thanks

Thanks, when you say it may not be allowed - what are the chances?

Can I extend at Cheang Wattana instead of one stop service using BOI paperwork and get the same 2 years?

Issues extending non-o based on child.

Have BOI WP and eligible for BOI visa extension, question is - can I just extend my current non-o with a non-b BOI extension without leaving the country?

Or can I change in country to non-b before extending?

Does changing visa in country to non-b affect 3 years unbroken extensions for residence permit?

Thanks

Is this needed in Bangkok? I never had this in CM but doing extension next week in Bangkok, I need to stick some tax stamps on my lease agreement? I already have TM30?
