Is there any trustworthy agent can help with non-o marriage visa renewal ? And what is the fees ?

Hello all, would love to get in touch with anyone whose done the ED visa + guardian (non -O). I’m 34 days into my 60 day stay on multiple entry visa and about to enroll my child into an international school. Is it possible to do this visa while in Thailand or will I eventually have to to leave the country. I’m hearing it can take up to a month to process.

My friend is coming from.Australia in April

But as I see she can't open bank account to obtain retire visa ?

I am traveling to Thailand since 23 years, now being 50yrs old with German passport, and always on visa exempt stamp.

Since last year it seems using this way of entering the country is getting more and more tricky as I enter the country 2-3x during a 4 weeks holiday trip entering other SEA countries as well.

I also own a Condo in my name in Pattaya btw.

Now wondering what visa to apply for, probably DTV as I have all the requirements handy, to get not stressed with questions and evidence for my own purpose.

What is your guys recommendation in my case for 2-3 yearly visits to SEA in total not more than 120days but multiple Thailand entries?

I don't want to live there or apply for a standard tourist visa as I can't see a big difference.

As German I have also 2 passports (both German) which is allowed for critical purposes and land borders (Emirates, Israel, Cuba etc.) and I could potentially change my passport each time or so.

What are your recommendations for best and flexible options for myself?

Hi, I am now on a Thai wife non-o visa. My understanding is that now I am eligible to work. Immigration told me to go to labour office to find details for work permit. Labour office gave me a bunch of paper in thai and say your prospective employer must fill. The prospective employer says I need to leave the country and that will arrange a business visa based on which the work permit will be granted. So what’s the truth here? Who need a business visa if married to a thai allows you to work?

HI. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I tried 90-day check-in online for the first time, and immediately got an e-mail saying: “We have received your information successfully” along with completed form for alien to report staying beyond 90 days. (O retirement.) So my question is: Is this process is now instant? (In the past I’ve seen people in this group saying they are waiting for approval.) Thanks!

I just need reminding, how soon before my retirement visa expires can I apply for renewal. I think it's 45 days.

I have just done a visa run after a 60 + 30 days.

Flew to Vientiane from DMK. Advise you get an e-visa for Loas as visa on arrival queue was biblical and slow.

Arrived back today. IO wanted to know when I was leaving so produced my flight booking which will be 4 days before my new visa exemption runs out.

So back in Thailand.

Any recommendations for a visa next year.

Re: Non-O vs. DTV visa given banking changes

We planned to convert from a tourist visa to a Non-O after a March trip to the Philippines, using an agent to open a Thai bank account. With the recent banking restrictions, that’s no longer an option.

Now we’re debating whether to:

1) Wait and see if agents can assist with bank accounts again soon, and stick with the non-O plan.

2) Apply for the DTV (soft power) visa while in the Philippines.

I also looked into applying for a Non-O in PH, but it still seems to require Thai bank funds. The OA isn’t ideal since it must be done from the US and requires insurance.

Any advice from those more experienced? Thanks!

Can we apply for 90 days retirement visa just day arrival to Thailand
