    Do they have mini vans that go there? My plan was to take a minivan from Ekkamai in Bangkok to Aranyaprathet.

    They will probably have you do the same thing again.
    Go to a different crossing. Ban Laem south of there is better.
    From Bangkok the Ban Phu Crossing in Kanchanaburi to is closer and better. Only 960 baht for the crossing and border pass. No full page visa sticker done.

    Visa Run tour from Rayong to Cambodia

    in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

    Posted

    Hello.
    Please help me urgently!!
    Now I’m finding tour agent company for visa run to Combodia from Rayong.
    I’m finding recently information.
    Because Christies office has closed.
    Just an FYI, I'm stuck in Cambodia for 2 reasons.

    I'm on a Non O based on marriage. When I came back from Malaysia in December they airport immigration at Don Muang never stamped my passport although they stamped the TM 6.

    Also they're saying you can't go to Poipet and return on the same day. So looks like I'm spending the night in Cambodia.

    Non-O based on Marriage at Singapore

    Just now, ubonjoe said:

    I would guess they would accept a letter from your embassy proving 40k baht income. You could contact them confirm if it would be accepted

    I sent them an email and asked about that. I also asked if I could provide proof of income in Singapore from my employer since that's where my employment is based.  I work for a Fortune 100 company there if that matters.  Probably not.  

    Non Immigrant O Visa Renewal

    in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

    Posted

    So here's my thinking based on the above posts.

    My current Non-O expires in mid October. Go to the immigration office at the beginning of October and apply for the extension. While the extension is under review they will give me a stamp that will allow me to leave and re-enter Thailand multiple times until the extension is approved. After the extension is approved I can leave and re-enter as often as I want. This can all be done in Bangkok where I live.

    Am I missing anything?

    Non Immigrant O Visa Renewal

    in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

    Posted

    I travel outside of Thailand quite frequently, about 7 times a year, and I have had an extension of stay based on Marriage for the last several years, all you do is get a Visa at an Embassy or Consulate outside of Thailand (either a single or multiply entry) then up to 30 days before the Visa expires, go to immigration and get an extension of stay based on Marriage and at the same time you would go get a multi re-entry permit 3,900 Baht, to keep your extension of stay based on marriage valid.

    A couple questions regarding this.

    How long does it take, because I travel almost every week?

    Can I apply for this in Bangkok?

    Non Immigrant O Visa Renewal

    That's what I thought but this barstool expert was telling Mr that if I ever wanted to get permanent residence that I would have to renew the SAME visa for 3 years and not get new a new visa everytime because that resets the clock. This got me thinking "how do you renew the same visa?" I didn't think that was possible and it appears it's not.

    Non Immigrant O Visa Renewal

    I currently hold a one year multi entry Non Immigrant O visa based on marriage.  I'm hearing conflicting information on what to do prior to it's expiration.

    Can I renew the same visa for another year?  I was told if I ever wanted to apply for permanent residence, that I would need to keep renewing the SAME visa for 3 years

    If it's possible to renew the same visa, can I do this within Thailand at the Chaeng Watthana office?

    Or do I have to leave Thailand and get an entirely new 1 year multi entry via from a Thai consulate in another country?

    Apply for Extension of Stay in Bangkok from Non-O based on Marriage

    in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

    I was issued a 1 year multiple entry at Savannakhet in late October.  I'm ready to apply for an extension of stay.  I've been reading that a TM7 is required as well as the following:  (Copied from another post here)


     

    Quote

     

    Copy of data page of your Passport

    Copy of Thai Visa page in Passport

    Copy of Arrival and Departure card

    Letter from your Embassy confirming your monthly and annual income (if applying for marriage Visa extension based on having income of 40,000baht minimum per month)

    Copy of Marriage Certificate

    Copy of Kor Ror 2 document from Ampur confirming details on Marriage certificate are true

    Copy of House book

    Copy of Wife's Thai ID card

    Photos of Self, Wife inside home, and outside home showing house number (I took many photos in all rooms of house, and outside and let Officer select what he wanted! Too much is always better..!)

    3 Photos of applicant, 6x4cm size, Passport style

    Map showing location of family home. (I used Google Map satellite view, superimposing photo of our home, arrowed to aerial view of our house and land on Google map. Officer liked this!)

     

     

    I have a few questions:

    1. I'm going to apply based on income, not money in the bank.   Is an income letter from the U.S. embassy enough?  I work for a company out of Singapore and they will generate a letter for me as well.  I'm well over the 40k a month.

    2. It's been more than 60 days since my Non-O was issued.  Can I apply now?  I've left and returned to Thailand multiple times since then if that matters.

    3.  My wife and I live in Bangkok and rent an apartment.  The lease is in her name.  I know that I need a copy of her blue book and ID card which are both out of Si Saket.  

    4.  My marriage certificate as well as the documents from MFA are over 10 years old.  Do I need anything new from the Amphur or MFA?  I notice the post above mentions a Kor Ror 2.  Not sure what that is.

    5.  Where do I go to apply?  The immigration office on Chaeng Watthana?  Do I need to make an appointment or just show up?

     

    Extend 30 day stamp at Kanchanaburi

    in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

    Posted

    I have a friends that is visiting from the U.S. with a U.S. passport. She is staying in Ratchaburi.  Her current 30 day stamp expires on 11-1-2017.  She would like to stay until 27-1-2017.  I told her it might be possible for her to do a border run to Kanchanaburi/Ban Phu Nam Ron, but I'm reading here they will not give out 14 day stamps there.   Can someone advise if this is true?  Also, if this is true, what are her options?  Go all the way to Poipet?
