Non-imm O Without Extension Possibility ?

[rcjoop]

Today I received my 3 month single entry Non-Imm O visa. Intend to retire in LOS and take the route of non-imm O and after 2 month go for the one-year-extension on basis of retirement, age, money in the bank etc.

Seems to be the easiest way to achieve a “retirement visa” as usually suggested here.

However when I looked at my passport at the VISA it was stamped at the bottom of the page “no extension of stay geen verlenging van verblijf”

Now I get worried, does this mean that I can not get a one year extension of stay with this VISA or is this standard stamped underneath ?

Appreciate an answer from “those who know” Joop

Not sure of how to add a picture so a scan is here:

It is normal for a non immigrant visa stamp to alert you that the normal 30 day extension you may expect when using a tourist visa is not available. Should not be a problem for your extension of stay.

Thanks Lop for the fast answer, it is good to see that I do not have anything to worry about, as I quit the job and the house is sold I have passed the "point of no return" so thanks again, Joop

Just to back-up lopburi3 (who is always absolutely spot on with his advice).

Your 'no extension' stamp will be no problem, have one myself (from Cardiff), extension no trouble

Just to back up Crossy, who is backing up Lopburi,

I have the same stamp and I've been here eleven years.
