  1. The consulates in the UK were honorary consulates but they have now been closed for over 2 years due to covid 19 and they probably will not open again. In the US there are 3 official Thai consulates (New York, Chicago and Los Angeles) and of course the embassy in DC.. There were also several honorary Thai consulates that are now closed.
  2. You will have to use both passports when entering the country to use your visa in the old one. Immigration will stamp you into the country in your new passport. Immigrations does not transfer visas issued by a embassy.
  3. It is the same for all entries to the country not only visa exempt.
  4. It can be the equivalent of 20k baht in any exchangeable currency..
  5. No You have to have $10,000 of covid 19 insurance but it would only need to be valid for 30 days.
  6. If you have one way ticket out the country it will be accepted. Check onwardticket.com
  7. His name is in Thai on this page of the immigration website. https://www.immigration.go.th/en/?page_id=1388
  8. Remember the e visa can only be used at a few crossings. Source: https://laoevisa.gov.la/index
  9. The just do a stamp that you used the e visa if I recall correctly since it has been awhile since anybody reported using one.. No big visa sticker or stamp.
  10. The airline you travel to here on can aks to see a ticket out of the country within 30 days of arrival. It can be a one way ticket to anywhere or a temporary onward ticket you find online.
  11. If you only wanting to do a border crossing to get a visa exempt entry you do not have to travel all the way to Nong Khai to do it. You can do it at the bridge in Chiang Khong in Chiang Rai now. You will need get a Lao Visa on arrival to enter Laos.
  12. You could enter visa exempt and get a 30 day stay that can be extended for 30 days at immigration. The airline you travel to here on can ask for a ticket out of the country within 30 days. It can be a one way ticket to anywhere or a temporary onward ticket you can get online.
  13. 1. A STV (special tourist visa) is not the same as a standard tourist visa that allows a 60 day stay. With a STV you get a 90 entry that can be extended twice for 90 days. 2. A single entry tourist visa does not require proof of accommodations. I could not open the LA consulate website. See this page on the embassy website. https://thaiembdc.org/2020/11/05/trsingle_entry/ 3. You will do the application on the e visa website. https://thaievisa.go.th/ If the application is not accepted you would be able do it again.
  14. As far as I know they just check your Thailand Pass and your temperature is checked.
  15. Yes You just need to remember what the purpose of the 90 day report is as shown on a TM47 form.
  16. There is no grace period. You will be fined 500 baht for every day of overstay. The only risk is getting caught with a overstay before you leave the country.
  17. You can leave the country within the 90 days a non-b visa allows but you will need a re-entry permit to keep the remainder of the 90 days valid when you enter the country.
  18. The under consideration stamp allows you to stay in the country until your extension is approved. The report back date on it is just that. It does not end the under consideration period.
  19. What embassy or official consulate website are you looking at. I found this on a embassy website. "2.4 Proof of a round trip flight confirmation/reservation showing going from the US to Thailand and leaving from Thailand (The name of the applicant must be indicated clearly)" Source: https://thaiembdc.org/2021/05/13/metv/ You only need on ticket to Thailand and ticket of Thailand that could be a throw away one way ticket to anywhere.
  20. Not sure why they posted that out of date info on their website. I guess that did not have their own so posted the one from immigration.
  21. For a extension based upon working for a company the amount depends upon your nationality. For those from most western countries it is a minimum salary of 50k baht. For teaching there is no minimum salary,
  22. Any work you do requires a work permit as well as a non-b visa and extension of stay based upon working for a company or teaching.
  23. The intent for being able to apply for the non-o is apply for a extension of stay and you have to meet the financial requirements for the extension. The 400k or 800k only has to be in the bank on the bank instead of 2 months. You could do it but you may be questioned as to why you did not do the extension when you applied for a previous one. I suspect they might make it difficult to apply for another one.
  24. That is an error on the website you are looking at. They did not lower the requirement when it was changed to $20,000 and now to $10,000. You could submit 60 days of the $10,000 covid 19 insurance and it should be approved. Some state the amount needed for covid on the application info page but it is not a requirement to get the visa. Which embassy or official consulate will you be applying at?
  25. If you entered the country with a non-o visa you are not eligible for a 60 day covid 19 extension.
