So I went to my online Thai Consulate in Chicago to start reviewing my requirements for a Visa application. I think I'm interested in Non-O.
I'm married to a Thai woman and we have raised three boys here. She has been here since she was 13. She is a dual citizen. We want to go back to Thailand for 6 months. We are about eight months out .
Anyway, is there a sample application I could look at? The website lists a lot but there are some generalizations. Easy?
Just looking for advice regarding my situation. I know there's a lot of advice already posted, I know that the easiest thing to do is probably just to pay a border agent, but I want to ask for advice anyway.
I first arrived in Thailand in August of '22, then recieved a Non-B (legitimately) in September through the company (teaching agency) that hired me. I worked for that company until March '24, then went back to the US. I returned to Thailand in early January for a wedding and realized I didn't really want to live in the USA anymore. I was able to secure another job for the next academic year (signed contract and everything), but that won't start until May. My 60 days are up in March - what's the best course of action? Should I leave before the 60 days are up and then try to return (after a few days or weeks) without getting the 30 day extension first? Should I just go somewhere else until May?
Hi , I arrived in Thai with visa exemption 60 days. I like to extend to 30 days . Do I go to the IT sqaure Lak Si or Government Complex ? Do I also need the embassy letter apart from TM7 forms, copies and original of passport , visa pages and TM30?
Question on expiring passports and extension of stay.
I have an OA visa and I am on an Extension of Stay to October 2025 (multi-entry). I do the extension in early September each year.
My (Australian) passport will expire in January 2026.
I have read various posts about this and it seems to me that the simplest approach is to get a new passport before attempting the extension.
I think I can renew the passport in Thailand, but this seems quite a lengthy process.
As an alternative, I have no problem with renewing my passport in Australia mid-year prior to doing the extension in Thailand in September. But that will mean that I leave Thailand on the old passport, and return with the new.
As I understand it, I simply show both passports on return and get the existing extension moved to the new passport once I have arrived.
What is unclear to me is
(a) I have an existing multi-entry stamp in my old passport. Is this still valid (and thus allowing re-entry)?
(b) Once arrived back in Thailand, do I need to immediately "transfer the stamps", or can I just wait until I do the extension, (showing both passports + associated paperwork/insurance/funds etc), as the new extension will go straight into the new passport.
Looking for advice on flaws in my logic/understanding.
Hello. I was granted an extension of stay on my non o visa at Jomtiem in December, no dramas. Looking at my paperwork today, I noticed a comment from the IO that I should return on the 3 month anniversary date and show my bank passbook, to evidence that 800000 is still in my account. I haven't done this before, is it something I should do or not worry about doing? Thanks
I have a pending consideration stamp in my passport. We plan to leave Thailand for an overseas trip. Will my visa application be cancelled? Google search says it will. Anyone have any experience with this?
