Thanks for this Rob. If I register myself and print off that registration presumably the IO will do a cross check with the landlord’s registration to make sure there are no inconsistencies 🤷‍♂️

Wondering if it’s possible to access this database as a Tenant and print off a copy of the filed TM30.

Just returned from CW. It looked like everyone was being asked for their T30 and copies of the relevant passport pages were not required. All done in a couple of minutes, excluding the 4 hour wait of course 👍

Many thanks 👍

I have recently had my online 90 day reporting filing rejected. I did not realise that the first 90 day report for each and every Non O extension cannot be done online. This was not made clear on the rejection email just the standard please Please contact the nearest Immigration Office in person immediately. Anyway, can anyone tell me apart from the completion of the TM47 form what other documentation they will likely require. Many thanks 👍

Does anyone know what the typical charge is for an agent who extends a 12 month non-O retirement visa at CW would be?

Thanks for this. The reason I went for the 800,000 method is simply that I can wait for the exchange rate to peak in my favour during the year and transfer then. This method seems to work for me especially since WISE often gives you several hours to cancel the transfer. The GBP/THB exchange rate has increased by well over 7% year-on year.

I think you are being rather pedantic. You know what I mean 🤷‍♂️

I was thinking more of denied renewal of visa 🤷‍♂️

The frustrating thing is that there seems to be no appeals procedure. Maybe there is but it’s not advertised and I don’t imagine it would get you anywhere other than deported 😂😂

This is the biggest problem isn’t it. “It’s the regulations” is fine to say but where can you find them. The regulations should be unambiguous and posted on the Thai immigration web site so we can all follow them correctly 🤷‍♂️

Well you clearly know the system very well for my sake and the sake of others on here struggling with the problems of the Thai immigration service can you provide a definitive list of what you take to immigration when it’s time to renew your Non-O retirement visa? many thanks 👍

Thanks for the reply but it’s not as easy as you say if you go to the Thai immigration web site they seem to require very limited documentation as follows in my case: Completed TM7 Passport Fund deposit Certificate from the bank 800/400/800 Balance requirement Passbook There is no mention of the following for instance: Copy of TM30 Copy of Lease agreement Copy of signed ID card of Lessor if renting I am sure this list is not exhaustive.

Thanks for that. I will use the agent this time around and attempt to do it myself next time 👍

No as I said earlier this was my first renewal and the original 12 month extension to the original 90 day non-o visa was issued on the same day as his 800,000 deposit into my newly opened account. So officially the visa should not have been issued in the first place since the 2 month 800,000THB before application rule was not adhered to 🤷‍♂️
