1. It is not the same as a visa on arrival. A visa on arrival only allows a 15 day stay after you apply for it and pay a 2000 baht fee if your are from one the 18 countries allowed to apply for it. 2. You do not have to pay anything when entering visa exempt. 3. You get 30 days now. For a few months they increased it to 45 days due to the 14 day quarantine period. 4. The airline can ask for a ticket out of the country within 30 days. It can be a one way flight to anywhere. Immigration does not normally ask to see the ticket out of the country. 5, You apply for one 30 day extension at immigration. You have to apply for a Thailand Pass to enter the country. If doing the Test & Go entry after March 1st you will need to reserve a 1 night stay at a SHAplus+ or AQ hotel and a RT-PCR test and then on day 5 do a self test using a ATK and submit the results.

If rejected it would allow you to look at what was submitted when it is rejected. You get it as soon as you submit your report.

That is when completing and submitting a report after you have registered. You only need your family name and first name for the registration.

You get it by email when have submitted a report as proof it was accepted. Also maybe a chance to check that everything is correct on it.

What problem are you having? I did not have any problem other than maybe entering the catcha. If that is a problem the solution is to change it by clicking where the hand is at in this screen grab.

You cannot apply for a Thailand Pass at a embassy. There is only one place to apply for them and that is the Thailand Pass website. Embassies and official consulate can only accept a visa application and approve it (some use the e visa site for the application).

The embassy in Washington DC states this "2.4 Proof of flight confirmation/reservation, indicating the trip from the US to Thailand" but I suspect the e visa site will ask for a departure ticket. Soruce: https://thaiembdc.org/2020/12/28/special-tourist-visa-stv/ (LA consulate website takes you to the same page for the STV See: https://thaiconsulatela.org/en/visa/visa-type/) Either change your reservation or get a temporary onward ticket (search for owner ticket) to submit for the application. LA is a official Thai consulate. There can only be one embassy in a country.

The embassy is in Washington DC. LA is a official Thai consulate. Are you living within the LA consulates area of responsibility? You could reserve a hotel, condo or such for 90 days and then cancel it after getting you visa approved.

Check with Bangkok Airways about the flights and the airline you will arriving on. If going for the Test & Go it might be just as easy and less costly to spend the first night in Bangkok at a SHAplus+ hotel to get your first RT-PCR test there and then take a domestic flight to Phuket.

Leaving without canceling your extension based upon attending a school will not crate any problems when your return. At one time their was limit on the amount of time you could study a language by taking advanced courses for an additional 6 months. Their has not been a lot of discussions about language schools since the pandemic started. You would not have a problem if you changed languages to study.

You report will be submitted to your local immigration office for approval or rejection. Was that on the new site or the old one? You must of entered you name incorrectly. I think it will be rejected.

It is in Thailand news forum now. No need for two topics about it. This topic is now closed.

I you a extension of stay based upon retirement that is extending a entry from a non-o visa that is certainly the best way to enter the country. The Thailand Pass site has a lot of info on it. See: https://tp.consular.go.th/

When you use a non immigrant visa to enter the country you get a 90 day permit to stay (admitted until on the arrival stamp).

You have to register to use the new site. They will send you a email with a password to use on the new site. There is a lot of info about in the pinned topic at the of the main page of this forum.

I don't think the Canadian embassy will issue the letter. Perhaps send a email to them asking about it. A letter from you emassy is not normally needed now. You just complete a affidavit. The agent was wrong. The order for them has been expended to March 25th. What type of visa did you use to enter the country/

It will start from the 9th no matter what day you do the application.

I don't recall immigration putting anything but it being a visa free entry on the arrival stamp. This is what is normally what is written in Thai.

In the past the Hong Kong citizens could not apply for the 30 day extension due to their visa exempt entry being from a bilateral agreement. But now Hong Kong is also under the standard visa exempt scheme now. If you download the file I posted a link for you will see what I am say plus there is addition info at the page. This the clause of the immigration order that allows for the visa exempt extensions. (2) is probably the reason you cannot get the extension since Hong Kong was not on the basic visa exempt list before. I suggest you try to show immigration the list of countries that are now on the standard visa exempt list.

You can apply for a one year extension based upon retirement if you you can meet the requirements.

You can only fly into Cambodia at this time and need a Thailand Pass when returning to Thailand.

You can try to get immigration to cancel the 7 days to leave the country and possibly do the 30 day extension. Children under the age of 15 do not pay overstay fines when leaving the country but it is always best to keep their stay in the country valid.

You will be extending your 90 day permit to stay (it is not visa) for 60 days that will start from March 9th not the day you apply. Clarifications of some your list follows. A signed copy done by the mother of her and you child's tambien ban registry will be needed. Signed copy of her ID card as well. You daughter will need to be with you and the her mother as well if possible. A statement by the mother that you are living with her and your daughter. The only photo you should only be the 4 X 6 cm photo for the TM7 application form.

The 7 days is to leave the country not a extension. I think immigration is not aware that Hong Kong at this time qualifies for a normal visa exempt entry instead of it being under a bilateral agreement. See this list for visa exemptions from the Department of Consular Affairs of the MFA in English and Thai. List of countries for visa exempt and visas on arrival dated October 2021. Look at the bottom of the page the note that is for double asterisk on the list of countries. You do qualify for the the 60 day covid 19 extension as well.

He would not of gotten the email unless he had used the new site to do a report. I registered as soon as the new site became available but I was not due to report until early this month. I got no email to inform me my report was due that was done on the old site/app.
