  1. According to Richard Barrow on Facebook :

    The new rules for covid extensions have started. People on VOA and Non Immigrant visas are reporting they have been refused a covid extension and have been told to leave the country within 7 days. There may be some exceptions, but it’s up to the discretion of the officer.
    Immigration are mainly giving the 60-day covid extensions to tourists. For example, those who have a Tourist Visa or who came in on a free visa exemption. In both cases you must extend for 30 days before applying for covid stamp. But no guarantees. You have to give a good reason. If you have already been here on a covid extension for more than a year, it’s up to the discretion of the officer if you will get it or not. Dress smartly and be polite.
    * I translated from the following that was sent to me by Immigration:
     
    The Immigration Bureau has approved an extension of time for visa extensions for COVID-19 reasons until 25th March 2022, under the following conditions:
    1. Persons entering the Kingdom with VISA ON ARRIVAL (VOA) cannot extend their visa for this reason
    2. Persons entering the Kingdom with a TOURIST VISA can extend a tourist visa for an additional 30 days and then they can submit a reason to stay for COVID-19.
    3. Persons entering the Kingdom as a temporary person, NON-IMMIGRANT VISA, cannot be extended for COVID-19
    In the case of tourists already in the country. At the end of the 60-day period for permission to stay in the Kingdom, this time they must leave the country. Or if there is a necessity to stay, there are able to submit an application to stay in accordance with the laws, regulations, and rules set forth.

  2. If you only at the start of a new foodbusiness/shop, just start i would say
    Everything on your wifes name and just keep your marriage visa
    I had exactly the same.I am married,bored and i have from my home country a income.
    I am here on a Non-O visa with the extensions.
    I have a online business and a (at home) food business.
    I just start and my wife is  "the owner"........."i not help her"......i not take care"
    When the business is really making a good income....then i will registrate etc etc
    Many private thai people start from there own home.

  3. This message i saw on anather forum
    "

    This post is of particular interest to foreigners in Bangkok. Thanks to my very alert wife, we discovered last Monday (20/12) that a large new vaccination site has been set up in the well-known “shopping center” Asiatique the Riverfront on the Chao Praya river district Charoen Krung/Bangkok. This is located in Asiatique, which is easily accessible by public transport and with plenty of parking.

    The vaccination is also for foreigners. No appointment necessary, no pre-registration, no apps (Morchana or the like), just walk-in. Opening hours 0800-1800 hrs"

     

    Can anyone confirm this?

  4. Today on saturday 20 november i did my Covid Extension for the first time.
    I came in with a NON-O which was already extended by 60 days for visiting my wife.
    First i thought...well..lets go to MTT and do it there.Result on this saturday:Nope you can not
    I must go CW.
    With all my documents (including a "returnticket" and "receipt") i went to CW and was hoping to get 60 days extra.
    All my papers was examined with the TM30 + Blue Book and some info about the situation in West-Europe it was extended in 30 min.In total there were 3 people waiting...so very quite
    I looked in the passport and it was extended till 18 Jan 2022 .This is 60 days from day of apply!
    No qestions asked and i went with saying:Happy Loy Kratong and all 3 IO laughed and smiled
    All Good.

    But nether the embassy or consulate in Vietnam is using the site.

    Applications are only done in person.

    My wife (planning) is joining me to Vietnam.We are planning to visit Hanoi (Both fully vaccinated)
    I want to use my (holiday) time to get a new visa

    So if i read well..........
    1. I must have a Thailand PASS (my thai wife too??) which i can do online
    2. I need to get IN PERSON to obtain a NON-O marry visa which is 80$ and takes 2 days
       must make a appointment
    3. All requirements (vaccinations/insurance etc) 

    I understand that entering Vietnam have also its requirements
    Does Hanoi have the same polici as HCMC?

  6. I am considering not to go back to the Netherlands but instead to Vietnam
    From here (vietnam) i will start with a fresh new NON-O marry visa..........is this possible?
    or must you obtain a NON-O marry visa from your home country
    Also (if possible) 
    Must i apply the visa in person at the Thai embassy in Hanoi or through the new website (https://tp.consular.go.th/)

    Thank you

    They of insisted you do the standard 60 day extension to visit your wife before doing a covid 19 extension.

    You may be able to apply for the 60 day covid extension before November 26th when the current extension for them ends.

    If the embassy for your home country still does the proof income that is what immigration will insist you get instead of proving you income by transfers from abroad.

    There is vague rule that allows for only 2 or 3 months of 40k baht transfers from abroad. Immigration have been insisting on 12 months of transfers unless you just arrived in the country on a non-o visa.

    You would do the one year extension based upon upon marriage at Chaeng Wattana not MTT. MTT only does 30 day and 60 day covid  extensions for visa exempt entries.

    Thank you as always for your respond
    - Wattana officer explicit told me to do the 1 year at MTT
    - I arrived on a NON-O visa till 05 oktober.............so when 04 december will come
    i hope that 2-3 month income abroad will be accepted.400.000 is not reachable for me now
    and 12 month prove 40000 is not possible because i arrived on 8 July
    so confusing?..........................

    Is your current 60 days a covid 19 extension? Or did you apply for a 60 day extension to visit your wife?

    You can apply for a covid 19 extension in either case.

    You will need a TM7 form and the standard passport copies and TM6 arrival card.

     

    You will need to complete this affidavit. 60 Day Covid 19 Extension Affidavit.pdf229.8 kB · 660 downloads

    I am not sure about that
    "you can apply for a covid extension in either case"
    just returned from Wattana and AFTER your 60 day ext to visit your wife,you must leave OR
    apply for a 1 year stay (this according Wattana today)
    Maybe because i CAN go back to my country..........i not knwo
    see my topis "Extension Denied"

  9. Went today,saterday,to Wattana for a Covid extension
    I have a NON-O visa (married thai woman) till 05 october
    Woman told me that i can go back to my country,but i can have the 60 day extension based on visiting my wife
    I choose for option 1 Covid extension for the current situation......not accepted
    No choice left then extension for visiting my wife
    Little disappointed becaiuse i thought that is was no problem for getting a Covid extension
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    They told me i can have after these 60 days a 1 year extension at MTT(400.000 baht or 40.000 baht min/per month)
    I only need to show a incomeletter from my ambassy and not need to show 40.000 + from outside thailand in my bankbook
    I wonder IF i NOT get an incomeletter from the ambassy....if i can show min 40.000 baht from abroad?
    This is my first yearly extension and by my knowlege i have to show 2-3 month income from abroad
    Now i can stay till 04 december
    My last remark/question is.........can i still do a COVOD extension AFTER my "60 day extension based on visting my wife"

    Thank you

  10. Good morning every one
    I am in Thailand on a Non-O visa based on married valid till 05 october
    "Thai immigration officials have confirmed that the deadline for a so-called Covid visa extension has been moved to November 26. The previous deadline was September 27. The new date means foreigners in the Kingdom can avail of permission to remain until early next year, at a cost of 1,900 baht.

    Anyone still here on the 60-day Covid visa extension now has until November 26 to prolong their stay with the immigration authorities. Those extending close to that date will be granted permission to remain until the end of January 2022"
    Do i have to go to Immigration before 05 october to extend my stay or is it now automaticly extended till 26 november and have to go BEFORE this date?
    Or must i go to CW-MTT BEFORE 05 october to ask for a Covid extension,because my valid date of my current Visa is 05 october

    Thank you all

    The online TM30 reporting site is working now.

    Submitting a TM30 form if needed is not that difficult. What do you need to know?

  14. To Ubon Joe and all other members

    Arrived safely on July 08 in Bangkok with Qatar airlines
    To Doha about 100 people on board - Doha to BKK only 48 passengers
    Now in very bad "budget" ASQ Hotel,where i spend my 14 nights 

    Now my urgent question:
    I Am married,have NON-O visa for 90 days till October 05
    Can I extend this FIRST (60 days extension based on visiting my wife)
    and only then request a YEAR extension based on the monthly 40,000 baht deposit?
    OR
    Do I have to apply for an extension for a year BEFORE October 05?
    How far in advance do I have to request that annual extension under the 40K scheme?

    Thank you very much

    If applying for a non-o visa at immigration they will not accept the 40k baht income transferred into the country option. The will only accept a letter from your embassy if you can get one. They might accepted it if you had a year of transfers with proof it came for abroad. Normally I would post a link to the info on a immigration website but it is down at this time.

     

    Two or 3 months of 40k baht from will be accepted to apply for the extension of stay unless you have been staying in the country for a long time already. It depends upon the office where you apply.

    You can spend the 40k baht as soon as it is transferred into your account.

    If you already have a non-o visa you can apply for the extension during the last 30 days of the 90 day permit to stay it allowed.

     

     

    Yes i have already a NON[O visa from my country and 90 day permit to stay
    I am married and arrive this Thursday
    I want first to extend for 60 day for visting my wife and then
    apply for  1 year using the 40K option

  16. Ubon J,
    IF i use the 40.000 baht income option (for the first time)...................
    - I understand it must come from abroad
    - I must show 2 month income of minimum 40.000 baht

    If i deposit 2 month from abroad(40,000 exh month),can i use that money for my expenses
    or must i leave that on my bank.Also the second time,can i use that moeny for my bills.

    How long before i must APPLY for this marry extension?
    Thanks Ubon J

    What type of visa did you enter the country on?

    You can apply for a non-o visa and a extension of stay if you have 400k baht in the bank. For the non-o visa application if only needs to be in the bank on the day you apply and for the extension of stay for 2 months.The 40k baht income option is not your only choice.

    If you found work you could apply for a non-b visa and extension of stay.

    UBON JOE hi,....
    "For the non-o visa application if only needs to be in the bank on the day you apply and for the extension of stay for 2 months.The 40k baht income option is not your only choice."

    Another forum (THAIGER) told me the following:
    "

    I don't have any income in Thailand, but my Thai spouse does. Will I still be eligible for a marriage visa?

    I
    Of course, it possible to get a marriage visa. As long as your Thai spouse’s income is over 40,000 Bath. This financial condition for the Thai married visa allows you to combined monthly income with your spouse as well. Furthermore, the condition is also allowed if the income comes from either or the both of you income meet the requirement.THE THAIGER


    Is this true: COMBINED MONTHLY INCOME 40.000 baht (so wife + income husband)
    Example wife salary 20.000 + husband salary 20.000 = 40.000 bht show for 2 month.......to get a 1 year extension of my NON-O Marry visa?
    If true how you show that income from " abroad"..........?
    Thanks Ubon J

    Forget that, that's not how things work. 

     

    If you return the car to Toyota, Toyota will auction it, and the car will be sold for X THB. 

     

    At the moment you owe Toyota 483,392 THB, so after the car has been auctioned off, Toyota will say: 

     

    483,392 THB - X THB = Y THB.  So you still owe Toyota Y THB that you have to pay them. 

     

    And if you don't pay them, it will not only be a blacklist, they will take your wife to court for owing them money / defaulting on your loans. 

     

     

    Your best option is to consider the money paid so far gone, and sell the car for the remaining of the loan.

    I understand,Thank you for your advice.
    I completely understand that the auction price is far below the market price
    Thanks for your reaction
