Non Immigrant Extension

[dutch]

Went to-day to Suan Phlu.

Arrived at 0925hr;Ready at 10.20hr

Did my visa extension and a mutiple entry permit

Original Passport with one copy of the relevant pages

Original healthcertificate (no extra copy required)

Copy letter from embassy about income (I requested the original back)

Letter from Bank stating the account balance and total foreighn transfers.

Bank book with one copy.

Actually they didnot ask for the embassy letter but when they started to count,I handed over the letter (I actually forgot).

My conversation was very pleasant with the official and mainly in Thai.

It was crowdy but organized.

Visa about 15 minutes + 1900 baht

Multiple the remaining + 3800 baht

Have your paperwork done and it's an easy job

Of course I forgot to mention the TM 7 and TM 8 both original with one photograph 6x4

Dutch,

Did you have a new letter from the Embassy re your income -- or was this the letter used in years prior for visa extension?

[dutch]

It was a new letter from embassy in Bangkok.(written in June 2005)

As I made an O-A for my first visa application in Jakarta,I used a letter from the Dutch embassy in Jakarta.

This time I request the original letter back and left them with a copy, which they accepted without any hesitation.

In my bank letter I also had mentioned the total incoming money during last year(from abroad).

My thinking is to make it as easy as possible for the immigration and at least follow their rules.

As said , it was an easy operation.

Just note here! If you have to renew your passport at some time, you will need a new letter from embassy to certfy pension as the number on your new PP will be different from the one on old certifying letter.
