Mr BBS

Just went to pick up my visa and I got a 90 days non o only, reason was funds not long enough in the account so they do check the 2 months statement requirement. Lady behind counter was rude and not very helpful. It’s not a big deal for me, I will get a 1 year extension in about 60 days at my local immigration office

Cool, it’s clear for me then. Will see if they give me the 1 year with the funds being there only for 2 weeks. If not il take the 90 days. Thanks to you all! I will update my experience next week!

Why skip Savannakhet? I need a non o first so I can get a 90 days in Savannakhet. I wanted to get the 1 year cause it would give me more time to apply for my work permit and based on the wp do the extension it covers the 40k requirement and not need 400k anymore sitting there in the bank. Sorry If I am repeating but with a non O ME 1 year you not allowed to do extension within Thailand ?

Are you sure about this Rob? from my knowledge can you apply every time on your 1 year non o ME on last 30 days of your 90 days stamps for a 1-year extension if you meet the requirements ( 400k 2 months / 40k monthly ) Maybe i am wrong so like to double check it as my plan was to extend during this 1 year ME

thank you for your response, i have booked a slot next week at Savannakhet, lets see.

thanks jack, ive noticed about the appointment and seems not easy. I just want a confirmation that they provide the 1 year Non O ME as on their websites both for Savannakhet and Vientiane only says 90days. Also id like to know if the 400k in Thai bank for 2 weeks is enough so not 2 months cheers

Hi guys, I am wondering if i can get a Non O ME based on Marriage at Vientiane or do i need to go to Savannakhet? Savannakhet would not be a convenient option for me. Got all paperwork prepared and 400k thb in the bank ( money not been there for 2 months ) Plan to go there next week anyone with recent experience would be much appreciated. Thanks Niels

i do have the 400k in the bank but not for 2 months.
