UPDATE - I registered again with an alternative email and it worked this time. Thanks very much

Yes been checking all folder and nothing, I was also expecting it in a few minutes. I even tried the registration process again and it said that this email was already registered but still needs to be verifyed. So I am stuck until it arrives. Any thoughts of me trying again with an alternative email address but it will be the same name and passport details? I dont want to create a red flag on my details.

Hi I have just tried to register on the Online TM30 website. I completed the initial details and submitted so that I could receive an email which would verify my email address. I was expecting the email from <removed>to arrive within a few minutes but still nothing in my inbox or spam folder after an hour. So I cant move forward on the TM30 unless I verify my email. So just wondering how long it should take before I receive the email to verify my email? Thanks very much for your help.

Im still overseas and leaving in the next month or so. But just wanted to be prepared for everything so I can submit the application as soon as I arrive. If TM 30 is fine then it shouldnt be a problem. Thanks very much

Rental Agreement between the Applicant and the Landlord; A copy of house registration. Location map of the house and a rental receipt Past three months. This came directly from a Retirement requirement form that I downloaded. 9.FOR-RETIREMENT-PURPOSES-50-YEARS-OLD-NON-O.pdf

sorry we overlapped. Phang Nga Immigration and Non O based on retirement. I think I understand the Non O process and I have the bank account ready. It was just the proof of address that I wasnt clear one. Thanks

Non O based on retirement

Hi No I will be dealing with Phang Nga immigration

Hi. Can anyone confirm the 'Non O address requirement if I don't have a rental agreement? Thanks very much

Apologies if this is covered in another topic but I couldn't find a specific answer to my question. Regards the process to convert from Visa exempt to Non O, I understand that normally I need a TM-30 form and/or Rental Agreement between the Applicant and the Landlord; A copy of house registration. Location map of the house and a rental receipt Past three months. But I plan to stay long term with my friend who has his own rental agreement. So how do I provide proof of my address under these circumstances? Can my friend's Landlord still sign the TM-30 even though it's my friend that has the rental agreement? This seems the easiest way but just want to be sure that there are no issues with this? Or can my friend give me a letter to confirm I am living there and provide the rental agreement as proof? I just want to be fully clear on how to show my address when converting to the Non O even though I don't have any formal rental agreement with anyone. Thanks very much

Thanks Poohy Just to be clear, are you saying that the corner page would be cut on the rest of the old passport - but just not on the page with the Visa and Re-entry? And what about the page with the original Visa sticker? i.e. if those pages are not cut there then they are still valid? Or must the whole of the old passport remain uncut? Just want to be clear when I renew the passport what to request regards the old one. I don't mind doing the transfer to the new passport at local immigration. Thanks

Hi I have a question about my current Thailand Retirement OA Visa which is still valid in my current South African passport The latest Visa extension is valid until 22 October 2022. I have a Re-entry Permit Stamp also valid until 22 October 2022. I am currently in South Africa for a few months but intend to return to Thailand before the Visa expiry date of 22 October 2022. My current passport expires on 19 August 2025, so I would like to get a new passport whilst I am currently in South Africa as this will be much easier than trying to get a new South African passport when I am back in Thailand. So my question is what will happen to the status of the current Retirement Visa and re-entry permit if I get a new South African passport? I believe that I can re-enter Thailand using the old and new passports - is this correct? Is this common? Would there be any issues at Thai Immigration at Phuket or Bangkok airports trying to enter with an old and new passport. I still need to confirm 100% that I am allowed to keep my old passport when I get a new one but Im pretty sure that's not an issue. So please can you advise regards entering Thailand with a new passport and my visa and re-entry stamp in the old passport. if you think there is any risk then I would rather use the current passport and renew it when back in Thailand even though that is likely to be a big pain. Thank you very much for your help with this issue.
