Non-o Application, Question #15

[up-country_sinclair]

15. Countries for which passport is valid....

I assume they're referring to the country that issued the passport.

For example, I'm from the US and have a US passport.....so I should write US...right?

I really don't understand the point of this question...or am I being completely daft?

AFAIK.... It actually is as it reads.... In your case, write, "All"

Correct John.

OK, how about #21

Local guarantor and address......

Bear in mind that #22 is

Guarantor and address in Thailand......

The only 'local' address I'll have is my hotel near the embassy where I'm applying....and I certainly wouldn't consider them a 'guarantor'.

It really doesn't mean 'guarantor' Just put in your brother/sister/mother for the home country, and any old name for the Thai 'guarantor' or leave it blank if you know nobody.

Oh...."local' refers to your home country not the country where you are applying for the visa?

I put my wife for the Thai Guarantor.

When you apply for a visa, you are generally supposed to be outside Thailand

and then "local" refers to the country of the used consulate, maybe not your home country.

Probably both are / can be applicable.

On my last 90 day reporting i asked the officer if any new rules on this apply relating to I Year Res. visa renewal. ( 800 K )

He said to bring a photo copy of the property book, the wifes I.D. card ( both signed by her and dated )

Tm7 with Latest photo attached, bank letter showing proof of deposits ect. and that i,ve been in the positive for the required 3 months, and the usual P.Port photo copies. ect.

I take as much stuff as i can anyway, to hopefully avoid a re visit.

Don,t know if now may be a good time to ask for any other latest imput before 2cnd. of June 2008, please mods and members.

I use N.Khai and apart from one well know awkward officer, have always had a favourable experience and hope i can report it as ditto this time around.

Thank you everyone

I realize that one is generally supposed to be outside Thailand. In fact, I believe it is a requirement.

And that's my point of my question.....I don't know anyone in Malaysia who would or could be my guarantor.

Anyway, I simply put the name of someone in my home country.

I have used "self" for all such questions over the last 40 years and have never been refused a visa. I really would not worry too much about it.

Thanks lopburi3.
