Thanks in advance 15 years ago I tried to get one for my father in Thailand (at the main HQ before they moved to Chang Wattana), the intent was for him to live here with me and my family, failed they insisted that he apply for a retirement visa, gave him a 90 day extension in order to get the 800,000 Baht here and season it. Maybe things have changed, all the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 What "dependent" visa are you asking about. There are non-o visas based upon being a family member of a person on a long stay extension of stay or for being the parent of a Thai or for being the parent of child attending school. Not all of them can apply for 90 day non-o visa entry at immigration. In that case it can only be applied for a embassy or consulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is certainly allowed now for those on some extensions of stay under clause 2.20 of the immigration order. In reality there is no visa or extension of stay for being a dependent of someone since that means they are dependent upon them for support. The title of clause 2.20 states this.

Then she can get a extension of stay if she is 50 or over under clause 2.20 of the immigration order. The extension will granted to the day yours expires.

Exactly, been censored or removed by any chance?? I paid 20,000 baht (on top of usual fees) to my local friendly Immigration Officer for 6 years to get my retirement visa and avoid all the necessary bureaucratic financial paper work to avoid showing 800,000 baht! All that was necessary at that time was the "proof of income letter" from my Embassy, irrespective of the lower exchange rate! No problems nowadays here in Cambodia, once registered on FPCS, all one pays is around 300 US$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
