Non O expat in USA wants to return to Thailand
ubonjoe replied to LALes's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You do not need a ticket out of the country. If you want to buy a round trip ticket that is you choice. If you returned to the country in January you would need a new visa or get a 30 day visa exempt entry if you qualify for one. -
Non O expat in USA wants to return to Thailand

That means you cannot buy the insurance to use here while still in the country. You will be outside the country and when you return that is when you can use the insurance. -

It is based upon the permit to stay you get when entering the country not your planned stay. -

You will only need 2 months of covid 19 insurance. See: https://www.tipinsure.com/CovidRegional/product_detail -
Many embassies and official consulates do not issue the COE until a few days before your departure date. If there was a problem with it they would contact you about it.

Renewal Date Of Non-O Visa
ubonjoe replied to shortstop2's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
He could apply for the non-o visa at immigration as soon as he has the 800k baht it in the bank. As I wrote before it only needs the 800k baht in the bank on the day he applies. It will need to be in the bank for 2 months when he appies for the one year extension during the 30 days of the 90 day permit to stay he will get from the visa. -
Renewal Date Of Non-O Visa
ubonjoe replied to shortstop2's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
He would be applying for non-o visa at immigration that will give a 90 day permit to stay from the day it is applied for. To apply for the non-o visa he would need 800k baht in a Thai bank on the day he applies or proof of 65k baht income from his home country embassy if they do them. Then he could apply for a one year extension of stay based upon retirement. The 800k baht would have to be in the bank for 2 months on the day he applies. His extension would start on the day the 90 days ends. -
3 years overstay
ubonjoe replied to problemfarang's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
A. He will be banned from entering the country for 3 years if he leaves before 3 years of overstay. B. I am not aware of any agency that can fix it. These are the overstay rules since 2016. If caught with the ovestay the ban will be 10 years -

O-A visa Health Insurance
ubonjoe replied to Alphim's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
What it states is bit a confusing in what is says. In particular this and statement. "Copy of evidence stating that applicants have insurance as per stipulated by the Office of Insurance Commission and health insurance of Thailand which covers COVID-19 related medical expenses, both inpatient and outpatient, no less than 100,000 USD for the whole period of your stay in Thailand." It also has this link after that. https://longstay.tgia.org/ When you look at the insurance companies info it still shows the 40/400k baht insurance on LMG's info. -
5.1 A letter from the bank confirming your account is valid must be issued on the day you apply for the non-o visa. 5.2 A update of your bank showing the balance in your account is 800k baht or more on the day you apply. 5.3 That would not need to be updated on the day you apply. If your bank book shows the 800k baht was transfer came from outside the country other proof may not be needed. 5.3 would not be needed if the money has been in the bank for a long time (2 months or more). That would not be needed if you have recently entered the country. It is mostly a Bangkok immigration requirement done to prevent people from traveling to there to apply for the visa there instead of their local office.

Re-entry question
ubonjoe replied to HashBrownHarry's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Don't forget to get get a new re-entry permit to keep the 60 day valid along with the remainder of your extension. Best to only get a single re-entry permit. A multiple entry would be a complete waste since it will expire before you could use it again. -
