Timing allowance for renewal of retirement visa?

[JackSinclair]

Sorry,  I did a search but no answer.

I will apply at Chonburi Jomptien to renew my non- immigrant  'O'  'retirement' visa dated 25th of January.

How many days before and after the date stamp am I allowed to apply?

thank you.

30 days before.

Possibly longer with proof of travel.

No allowance for after. Any day after is overstay.

You are not renewing your visa.  Presumably you mean your extension of stay?  30 days before and none after, as advised.

They might allow some days after with a per day overstay fine but there are no guarantees and trying that is strongly not advised.

Good advice however can't recall a few days overstay and immigration not accepting application for extension.

Indeed would receive a fine.

Can't understand the OP even contemplating an application after expiry of current permission of stay.

Can occur by oversight.

Agreed but why skate on thin ice if you have a choice not to.

Anyone that would Plan to go into overstay should be aware very poor choice.

Even leaving it till late.

Most good advice on AseanNow is to apply for extension as soon as window opens. 

30 days early for most offices.

Why don't you get it from the horse's mouth and check with the immigration office which will handle your extension application in due course?

I know most IO's are 30 days before. However, where I live it's 45 days before. Check with Imm.

You can USALLY do 30 days before, ( some offices 45 days early ) it expires.

 

It is NOT a visa, it is a 1 year "extension of stay", reason being retirement. READ YOUR STAMPS FIRST LINE.

 

Make sure your TM-30 is up to date as well as your TM-47 ( 90 DAY )

 

NEVER do a overstay, you have a 30 day window to do your extension.

My extension is done in less than 15 minutes, I do my own TM-30's when returning back home from hotel holiday stays
