You start again.
Your previous non O and extension is irrelevant.
Your main choice to to obtain the non O while in the states or just enter Thailand visa exempt.
Having done it before would mean that you have a Thai bank account in your name only.
As for insurance to enter Thailand you could buy cheapest policy with 30 day period for covid 10k cover..
Note if you need more time to arrange for the non O (should not) you can obtain 60 day extension to visit wife
Thanks for the info!
I wasn't sure if this insurance was much more specific or any old insurance that had covid coverage would do the trick. Looks like it's the latter.
Thanks again!

If married to a Thai you can apply for a new non-o visa at a embassy or official consulate without a problem.
Or you also could apply for a non-o visa at immigration if you entered on a tourist visa or visa exempt if you can show 400k baht in a Thai bank on the day you apply.
Perfect. Thanks @ubonjoe I think I will just apply here in the US before hand. Just wanted to check if there was something else I didn't know about.

What do mean by Thai Resident? Do they have permanent residency granted by after going through the application and approval process that takes a couple of years.
Or are they on a extension of stay for entry from a non immigrant that was issued by immigration and you were on a non-o visa and and a extension stay for being a member of the their family?
What is required for you to get a new non-o visa depends upon their status in the country.
For the insurance question you find insurance here that meets the requirements for a Thailand Pass. https://tqm-app.com/static/thailandpass/index.html
Thanks so much for always helping. Sorry, for not clarifying. She is a Thai citizen.
Hope this makes my questions more clear.

Good morning all,
Excuse my newbie questions on this topic.
I was hoping I could get some expert info from you all. I am married to a Thai resident. I left Thailand around Oct - 21 to visit some elderly family back in the US. It was my first time doing the Non-Immigrant Visa-O process with the year visa, that expired on Nov - 21.
I plan to come back in August. Do I have to go and do the same Non O process to come back and repeat the process again? Or is there a simpler way, since I have done it once already?
Also, I started reading a bit about the current Thai pass covid process and the need of covid insurance. I had to get something similar when I came last time from Vietnam and got some temporary insurance from this site I linked below. It seemed to work fine then and I just canceled it after I was in the country for a few months. Can anyone confirm this time, I should be fine using them and doing the same for this covid rule? I know their site seems to push specific insurance companies of course and it seems to state you need this insurance for the whole time you're in Thailand.

no, they even don't work on saturdays (unlike some other travel clinics).
You can try to call them monday after 8:30.
they answer emails with 10 days delay, or never.
but they are cheap, no appointment necessary, no crowds and no waiting, also allow to leave immediately after jab
Thanks, I have tried to call this past week to confirm and they never answered. Hopefully someone can confirm here who is familiar with this holiday.
-
Question is in the title. That holiday is a government holiday but not sure if TRC opening is affected.
-
This is the exact different error I get on the mobile app, if anyone is curious.

You can do it today. As long as it is received by immigration 7 days before your report date it will be processed.
Thanks. Won't be able to do it until tomorrow, but that info is good to know. Thanks again!

Seeing that I have basically given up on this online fiasco, my date is May 11 on my form, does any experienced poster know when is the last day I can do by post? @ubonjoe?
-
Just saw this article so not sure how anyone is actually getting through this system currently?
Edit: A day later, this was posted. What a farce.

Have you already submitted at least one 90 day report on your current visa? I got this message when I had not done my first one "in person".
Yes, just did my first in person the last time.

We might be able to help if you were to stay what the problem is that you are having.
I get the same pop up everyone else who has had issues on every browser on every computer I try which is this one. And I get a slightly different pop up on the mobile app( which is currently not working atm) that everyone else has. Both options happen after the first screen.

I've tried all day, different browsers, different computers, no vpn, clearing cache, etc.. no luck whatsoever. I am shocked it works for anyone tbch. What a <deleted> show that system is, pardon my language and frustration...argh.

Hi,
Can anyone confirm if TRC is open on Saturday? Last time I was there a worker stated they are open until 11 am but their google and facebook listing state they are closed.
Don't really want to get up super early just to show up and be closed.

I'm slightly rusty on it but I think it assumes you've been taking PrEP for a while so you have some in your system already. I'm not sure you can kick off straight with 2 pills if you haven't taken before, but I could be wrong on that so double check, use the i-base link above. One of the reason I say that is if you start daily you are meant to have it for 1 week before sex
Thanks.

You just have 2 pills to start with, see examples below. The nausea wasn't bad just having it weekly for a day wasn't ideal plus I went back to having sex more often, I switched to 4 pills a week (reduced dosing method) but in Thailand for heterosexual sex the Red Cross say a man should take daily, although i-base says no need
https://i-base.info/guides/prep/real-life-examples-for-on-demand-dosing
Interesting, I actually like the idea of your method as well and had no idea it was an option. So, too start to get it into your system, how did that work. So, say you wanted to start today, when could you safely be with someone?

Yep, it's the same pill, you just take it at different times. I switched back to daily dosing due to slight nausea everytime I took 2 which was every week
Thanks for the reply, I will go there soon to get on it and I like the idea of not taking it daily so I guess I will try the on demand out first out.
Your nausea must have been very bad I take it with the on demand, wonder why it was so strong compared to your daily dose.
Also, is it the same exact pills as the daily and you just double up initially?
-
Does anyone know if they offer this on demand version at Thai Red Cross?

Hello,
Is there a list or link somewhere?
Sorry if this is a silly question, newbie over here.
Thanks.
Best process for returning back to Thailand
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

Hello @ubonjoe apologies for bringing up an older post but as I just applied online with the Embassy in LA. They asked for proof of stay, accommodations, hotel, etc..
I put my spouses apartment address in the application, but I guess they didn't understand that. I emailed them back explaining how do I state my " proof of stay, accommodations' if it's at my spouses apartment, will hope they reply. I read some reviews stating some people emailed them after they requested some documents and they could never contact them after, via email or phone.
So as I have only done the Non O from another country extension route, can you explain how I would do the bolded text above? Just incase they just never reply and I have to go the visa exempt route. How does that work, and when should I have money in my thai account. My fight is Aug 31.
Thanks Joe.
