  1. Thank you for useful informations. Additiona informations, All foreigners may qualify to apply for a residence permit if he/she 1. Holds a passport of his/her current nationality, which was granted a Non-Immigrant visa and the individual has been permitted to stay in Thailand for at least 3 consecutive years on a 1-year visa extension basis up to the application submission date. 2. Has personal qualifications that meet one or more of the following categories: 1) Investment category (minumum 3 – 10 Mil. Baht investment in Thailand) 2) Working/ Business category 3) Support a family or Humanity Reasons category: He/she must have relationship with a Thai citizen or an alien who already posses a residence permit as the followings: A legal husband or wife A legal father or mother A child who is under 20 years of age up to the submission date of application and must be single 4) Expert / academics category 5) Other categories Siamese Visa
  2. Normally, when you resigned or left from the school and you have to get a new work permit. Yes, you need to cancel your current work permit before getting a new one from the new school. However, as we faced this experience before, you will have times at least 7 days to cancel the work permit. Also, you can still stay in Thailand with the current non immigrant B visa until it expires. If possible, please update about your current situation at this time when you saw my these messages.
  3. If your partner didn't pay any additional special fees, except the immigration fee to convert the visa and also able to apply for a work permit while he was holding the retirement visa. That's sound good, Thaimo.
  4. Ah, I guessed so. The immigration office in Phuket, Hua Hin and Pattaya could accept this way of process.
  5. For a Non-Thai father or mother who have has a baby who born in Thailand, he/she might be able to apply for the "O" Visa in the purpose of supporting a child. However, you must be able to show the evidence indicating the parental status; birth certificate or a Judical Custody order of the child. Also, you will need to leave Thailand at least once to get a non immigrant visa before able to extend to a One Year Visa in the mentioned purpose at the immigration office in the province where your baby was born.
  6. If you meant that you can change from the O-A Retirement Visa to other types of non immigrant visa inside Thailand, please let me know which immigration (what province) is able to accept this converting application.
  7. Yes, I know very well that you can apply for a work permit while you hold a Non Immigrant O Visa. But as our experiences, the Labor Deparment will not allow the O-A retirement visa holder to apply for the work permit. Also, as you told that your friend can convert from the Retirement visa to other types of non immigrant visa inside Thailand, please let me know which immigration (what province) your friend has received the another type of non immigrant visa from.
  8. "I recommend you apply for a one year non-immigrant multi entry visa before you leave your home country. then you can stay for up to 90 days per entry, and can come back into Thailand any time you want for another 90 days, and repeat until your visa expires. Regarding arriving without a visa, you get a 30 day visa-on-arrival for free (assuming your nationality qualifies) which can only be extended for a maximum of 7 days costing 1,900 baht, then you MUST exit Thailand. You can come straight back into Thailand and get 30 days (by air) or 15 days (by land). Been some confusion about many times you can do that, rules keep on changing and you would need to check the latest rule nearer your time of arrival. Best of luck." Top cat, I agree with Patong's suggestion. If you want to stay for a long term in Thailand, you can start this plan with a One Year Multiple Entry Non Immigrant Visa. Also, if you and your partner are 50 years of age, you may be able to apply for the Retirement visas to avoid in making a visa run.
  9. Khun Patong, I understand on your point. Yes, the immigration in some province, might change the rule in issuing a retirement visa. But I can confirm you that if you have had the 800,000 BHT in your own Thai bank which have been deposited for 3 months OR have the pension/monthly income of al least 65,000 BHT, you can still renew your retirement visa without any problem. If the rules will be changed, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs must have the announcement to all immigration offices.
  10. Hello Wino, This will be also applyable to the Tourist Visa (60 days) which issued by the Thai Embassy and Thai Consulate. The government of Thailand has agreed to exempt the fee for tourist visa applications, effective 25 June 2009 to March 2010.
  11. Hello, I reviewed all of your information. You are right about the new rule of Thai Immigration. In order to limit the amount of foreigners using "back-to-back" border runs, Thai Immigration has issued a new regulation regarding the 30 days tourist exemption. Effective immediately, travellers without visa will get only 15 days of stay if they are arriving via a land border checkpoint from a neighboring country. But in case you want to get for additional 30 days, you will need to leave and back to Thailand via the international airport of Thailand. Also, you can get this visa type many times you require until you have used it completely for 90 days in one year. For detailed information, you can ask us via www.siamese-visa.com .
  12. Hello, I would like to tell you that you cannot apply for a work permit while you hold a Retirement Visa. You can only be a director of your own business in Thailand if you hold this visa type in Kingdom of Thailand. In this case, if you have been offered a job from a company in Thailand, you must obtain a Non Immigrant B or O Visa which will allow you apply for a work permit. However, about your concern in retiring in Thailand, this will not be any problem, you can still re apply for a Retirement Visa inside Thailand once you finished your this job. If you need additional informations about this, feel free to contact us via www.siamese-visa.com .
  13. If you hold the Tourist Visa with triple entries, you can make the extension for the 2nd and the 3rd entry at any immigration office in Thailand.
  14. I think you can withdraw up to 100,000 BAHT per day because you are holding a Debit card which issued from Kasikorn Bank, right? If so, that's great.
  15. Congratulations!! Of course, if you are 50 years of age and your financial qualification is matched with the immigration's requirements, you can surely receive the Retirement Visa in Thailand.
