Jake72 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Greetings, Wife and I recently moved from Bangkok to Surin and it's time to apply for a non-o extension of stay based on marriage at the end of this month. We are renting a house here and we did the Section 38 app registration together with the owner to make sure it would get done. From what I've gathered I need to travel to the immigration in Kap Choeng for the extension. I wonder if there are any differences in the requirements/procedure compared to Bangkok, perhaps if anyone got experience with non-o at Kap Choeng could share some tips and advise. Thanks, Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake72 Posted December 13, 2022 Author Share Posted December 13, 2022 Another quick question, is there a Bangkok Bank branch in Kap Choeng where I can update my bank book and get a letter? I did check on Google Maps, but it wasn't really clear, there is something marked as a Bangkok Bank branch, but it looks like a residential building in a small moo baan.

Thanks, Jake There is no Bangkok Bank in Kapchoeng anymore; I was there 1 month ago. The nearest Branch is in Prasat where they can help you quickly. Do you know there is also a new immigration office at the bypass from Surin?Personally I like the office at Kap Choeng where I always go (however I just live 12 km outside Surin city).

Pla Simon Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Bangkok bank @ Kap Choeng closed down a while ago. Prasat would be nearest, otherwise Surin city. Immigration polite and good service - have overheard people saying how hassle free and easy, and how much less paperwork they need compared to other offices. Just take what you would normally, or phone in advance to enquire. Goodluck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks that's very helpful, we live just a few km outside Rattanaburi so we'll be driving through Surin city, I'll try get the banking details done there. I didn't know about the new immigration in Surin, but I think I'll try Kap Choeng even it's a bit further away, sounds like it's more established.

Sounds like Kap Choeng is a bit more laid back than Bangkok and not having to wait in line for 4 hours is a big plus. Cheers, Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
