  1. Have you ever done it very early ? Let's say 6:00-7:00 am ?
  2. I am also personally interested on this as I also need to travel abroad myself during this weekend. I am supposed to get my passport with the 3-month visa ( same thing, 1st step towards retirement) on Friday and I am not sure I will have enough time to get a re-entry permit as 1. they don't know what time it will be ready for me to collect it and 2. I will have probably to queue for a ticket for the re-entry permit and judging from the crowds that could take up to 1 hour just to get the queue ticket. So a permit at the airport would serve me well too.
  3. Sorry, I don't understand this. He said he got a 3 month visa a month ago at Jomtien as the first step towards retirement but he has to travel to the US probably tomorrow and he asked if he could avoid going to Jomtien again for this re-entry permit as nowadays the place is extremely crowded.
  4. He's got 2 more months on his visa. He is planning to apply for retirement extension
  5. Hello to everyone, A few questions about getting a re-entry permit at Suvarnabhumi please. 1. Where exactly do you need to go ? 2. Apparently before going for the security and immigration checks, right ? 3. How much time does it usually take ? 4. Is this office open 24 hours ? I mean a friend has got an early flight tomorrow at 08:30. Can he get this permit in time ? He has a 3 month non-O visa as he told me. Many thanks in advance for your replies
  6. I asked if anyone had any similar experience. That is not a question for immigration and that perhaps could save me a trip to Jomtien where it was extremely crowded yesterday. Do you understand the logic behind this ?
  7. Hello to everyone, So yesterday, I applied at Jomtien for the first step of a retirement extension, that is for the initial 3 month extension. I was given a date to go back to immigration on the 5th, which is a Monday, to get my passport stamped. Unfortunately today, I got a call from the UK and my elderly father who is unwell for some time is having a serious operation on the morning of the 5th and preferrably I should travel back to the UK a couple of days earlier so I could be by his bedside that day. Are you aware of any circumstances that I could get this stamp from Immigration a couple of days earlier, like on Friday the 2nd so I could travel on the weekend after that ? Many thanks in avance for your replies.
  8. Do you know if they still require a map of the location of your residence ? (not mentioned on the pattaya expats link above)
  9. Thanks a lot. Will go there on Monday morning with all the papers ready and see what happens
  10. I have the funds untouched for many months already. Last year I applied and was given a 3 month visa as the first step towards retiremnt but for seriousfamily reasons I had to leave the country before being able to apply for the 2nd step and missed the dates. Now I have to repeat the process all over gain but I don't know if I go on Monday if there is enough time left on my permission to stay to apply for the 3 month visa
  11. All financial requirements are in order. So do I need to apply for a 30 day extension now or for a non-O as the first step towards retirement extension ?
  12. No thai wife or children. I plan to apply for retirement extension at Jomtien. My 30 day visa free entry stamp expires on 5 February. I wonder if I can apply this coming Monday, would that be too late ?
  13. Hi to everyone. How long after entering Thailand can I apply for the 60 day extension ? That would be the first step to eventually apply for a retirement extension.I was given a 30 day visa-free period of stay at the airport and I have 15 more days left
  14. If anyone knows...If one morning you go and apply for the yearly extension in Jomtien when do you get the stamp and the passport back ? I remember in the previous years it used to be in the afternoon of the same day but lately I believe they ask you to come after a couple of days to collect it.
  15. Thanks. My question is how early can I apply, before the end of the 90 days, as I have to make a trip back to the UK in the next few weeks and I wanted to sort this out first.
