Yes still need. if you renew car and morotcycle licenses both, you can use 1 original and 1 copy. But...better ask at the office before because as many things, it could be different...

Yes you are right. But when I came to apply I had all this documents. They refused extension on the fact that I live alone. As the post tell, in the last they gave the extension and...not need the above mentioned documents.. They just kept the rental agreement.

I think at least to understand the culture 20 years. In my shop at Holland also had many years Thai men worked. The problem is just the immigration office. I thought longtime before if post this topic but just wanted to make clear that Thailand is amazing. Even if ask before what you need, all can change quickly. And can change again.. Nothing is sure. Not about my personal situation,,,,

Just come 29 years. Mostly lived at Huahin where I lived a happy otherside of Thai live...😊

1 week before I wanted to extend my visa, i have gone to Immigration at Kap Choeng to ask what I would exactly need. When the boss heard that I live alone in a small village she told cannot have 1 year extension because nobody quarantee that I live there and it is unusual/dangerous to live alone at a ricefield city where is nothing to do. After some discussion (example I told I had extensions 3x before) she ordered someone to write down the requirements. The extension could in her opinion only when the "home owner from which I have a rent contract" send a signed document from her ID, her living tabain bahn and the tabain bahn from the home I rent. When I had all the documents including the other necessary ones I went back there with a well known business man from the next city. With 3 people they checked all the documents and after the boss started again cannot give the required extension because live alone! After long discussions in which the friend told that I really like to live quiet and all the people in cities around there like me she still not wanted. Finally I showed her the documents from my past wife and my 12 years old sun, marry, born and died, together with strong pictures my wife laying dead on the road under the concrete and pictures of my sun who lives 15 km away from me. After this she told me to be sorry and extended my visa. The 3 documents which they needed 1 week before, they not needed anymore and gave back. What I not like is why it has to come to this point, for what reason.... I not see the necessary from the documents ex wife and sun.If really needed why not asked a week before. My friend had to sign that I really lived there. If not trust they could come visit me. I know the boss is allowed to ask more information/documents but I not see the reason to refuse on a living alone reason because many farang live alone and get an extension. But ok I have my extension....with re-entry. Hope next year it will be more easy....

Yes, because my year extension was over renewing time when I was abroad. I applied for a 90 days non O based on retirement. I thought I could easily extend this visa with a month, until I saw your explanation in an other topic...

Is it possible to extend my current 90 days Non O retirement visa based on my 12 years old Thai sun? If can, does he need to go with me to immigration or can I just show the birth certificate (his mother died longtime ago, also have marry/ death certificate). Second option is walk over the border chon chom (Cambodia)... Can i walk in and out as before in 1 hour? Get visa exemption and extend this after?

Thank you for advice..Have a sun 12 years old, have all documents...married wife, birtcertificate, certificate of wife died..does he need to go with me in person? Second 1 year extension can; money is over 10 years in a bank all the year. Or just walk over the border and come back on exemption? And can get after 30 days again.. This time need about 4-5 months to can stay

Dr Jack, is 30 day extension not available for a 3 month NON O visa based on retirement?

They "forget" to give....😂

At Surin I not made an appointment but did the E-learning at home already. Because all offices act probably not same it would be better to ask at forehand in your office..

You get at least 5 years and then until your birthday. I let it expire 1 week, get 5 years and then 51 weeks to my birthday= 5 years and 51 weeks. Your DL can be expired until 1 year, but this not give axtra validity.. I suggest you let it also expire about 1 week. If I not explain clear tell me.

Yes, received it on the spot in Kap Choeng and told them that the DLT said only need 1... I not wanted to make problems because I need them again... By the way at DLT I paid all together 760 bath...
