In the OP's next to last sentence he asked abut doing his extension in November, so it seems he does not need to leave immediately and can apply within the normal time window. Thanks for the clarification on the 21 days in CM.

You can apply for your 1 year extension of stay 30 days early (some immigration offices allow 45 days and I believe Chiang Mai it is 21 days). So you can apply any time from early November and depending again on the immigration office you will apply at, you will get the extension either that same day or the next day or so. You should then apply for a re-entry permit that will allow you to travel and preserve your extension of stay date.

I use credit advices to prove my international transfers (Hua Hin immigration prefer this method), I would suggest as a safeguard to go into Bangkok Bank and ask to receive credit advices each month via email, that way you will get them and can use them if any of your transfers do not show as FTT.

Thank you that is what I am looking for. Actually it is prescribed for me by an Indian doctor as part of a Peyronees treatment protocol which includes Testosterone.

Who is Mr Bingle, if you mean google, already did that.

I have been unable to find this medication in Thailand, specifically in Hua Hin. Is anyone aware of where it or a generic version can be found?

Wise move Dr. Jack, last time I did an e-visa to Viet Nam, I mistyped my passport number by one digit, got to the airport to check in and was told could not use that visa as the passport numbers did not match. I had to scramble to find a company that would provide me with what I needed via a visa on arrival, they even had someone at the airport who did the visa application process for me when I landed. Cost me $125 for that one typo.

I used the combination method 2 years ago in Hua Hin and have since changed to doing monthly transfers as I needed the money in the bank for a surgery I needed. If I remember correctly I needed to have 400k in the bank with the balance coming from monthly transfers so it was not possible for instance to have 200k in the bank and monthly transfers totally 600k. It would be best to go and talk to someone at immigration to see what is currently required.

I do not know the process or time involved but have you considered getting a new passport now in Thailand which hopefully you would have in time to do your extension in August?

Ok, that clears it up, that is VIP Condochain, I am staying in Condochain a different condo altogether.

I have not seen one like that, being at the front would definitely have issues with the street noise. I looked at a unit near the front and did not like being that close to the main road.

I believe the pool was turned into a saltwater pool, but later changed back to normal water. At 80m2 that would be a 2 bedroom unit not a studio. Studios here go for 8-12k I think depending on how they are designed. BTW, I am actually thinking of moving to Jomtien, will spend June there to see if I like it or not.

I am in Hua Hin and will be moving out once I find someone to rent the condo I am in. It might be a little out of your price range depending on how firm you are on 15k. My unit is 60 sq mt with three balconies all with full or partial ocean view. The condo is called Condochain, one of the older condos in Hua Hin which is why you have the larger size. I am not sure what the rent would be for long term, when I moved in it was 20k for 1 month and less for full year contract, I am currently on a discounted rate due to covid so that would not apply to anyone moving in now. I had internet installed by True so you would be able to do the same. 7-11 is about 60 meters away and the condo is almost at the halfway point between Market Village and Bluport malls (approx 700-900 meters each way) and very close to Bangkok Hua Hin Hospital and on the baht bus route. Also has a swimming pool. Are you in Thailand now? Let me know if you would like to take a look or want more information. Scott

I moved to a new condo in Hua Hin last year and was told the condo office would do the TM30, they did not. I went to do my 90 day report (at Bluport Immigration office) and she asked where my TM30 was and I said I thought the condo office had done it. She then created a TM30 for me and stapled it into my passport and processed my 90 day report. So I would say, yes they do require it at some point. Others will be along that can tell you how to submit the TM30 yourself.

Could it be that the insurance paperwork included his passport number, therefore it would not match on one of the applications?
