daveb1 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Does anyone know if there is any limit to the amount of times a Thai consulate in the UK will continue to issue non immigrant multiple entry 0 visas or are they happy to go on issueing them year after year as long as you meet the requirements?

thaiflyer1 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Where are we talking here Hull?......ive had 2 back to back Non Imm O's from there (visiting family and friends) and i have friends here in Pattaya who have had 3 back to back.............hopefully it will continue, that said a harsh word from the Thai Embassy in London might put an end to it all.

thaiflyer1 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 (edited) You cant work on a Non Imm O.........you need to obtain a work permit to work.Edit..... Sorry simba misread your post.............on the "back " of the O i would think its possible to obtain a work permit presumably it has to be converted to a B first...........(Lop/Dr.P?)

Sorry simba misread your post.............on the "back " of the O i would think its possible to obtain a work permit presumably it has to be converted to a B first...........(Lop/Dr.P?) Just had this out with my nice new employer. You CAN get a work permit on a non-O visa without converting it to a non-B, some companies are a bit unwilling to do it because the process is apparently slightly different. Interesting that you have 'not permitted to work' stamp, is your visa a non O-A (retirement) visa, work is not permitted with this visa type. My visa has 'no extension of stay' stamped but apparently this is actually ignored and is really a get-out clause for the Thai government to get rid of anyone they consider 'undesirable'.

HumbleFlyer Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 The reapplication process is mentioned in all the Thai Immi Web sites...You can do it in Thailand or get a new one at an Embassy in the country of your citizenship. You qualify, don't come up on the balck list at Passport control and it's back to a Sanuk retirement....NO Problem...there are some conflicting statements on the income issue at to a Thai Bank or not etc but I think some of that data is just old. The latres is you never have to have one satang in a Thai Bank and can do it at all at home. If you get a new one in Thailand they are suppose to accept you bank info from home.. I'm sure we can find info to the contrary but that was from both the LA and Honolulu office! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simba Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 No i have a non imm O based on visiting family & friends, not a O A (only 32 years old), So not expecting the not permitted to work stamp, will have to check with the consulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
