Agreed.

There are five countries which get 90 days on the TVE list though.
I am not sure about Korea despite it still being listed on the official website.

Argentina
Brazil
Chile
Korea
Peru
I think Koreans do get 90 days.

latest gossip be that Penang also requires a hotel reservation as of the 4th

Two freshly home-printed signs were posted at the consulate. One was on the board facing the line of people, the other was on the application window. Both said the same: they want "original air ticket" and "hotel reservation" for tourist visa applications.

why does someone tell ya to do something illegal which will jeprodise ur staying in thailand?

If ur married and have the marriage paper all u need do is go to Singapore and show them the paper, 400,000 baht in the bank, copy her id card and they will give ya a 1 year muitlple entry about S$250. A friend of mine did that last week.

Got a 3 month "O" visa - inside Thailand without going out to an external embassy or whatever - with a 12 month retirement visa running consecutavley.

All stamped up and legal from the Main Immigration office in Phuket .

I doubt u received a 15 month extension. Look closely at your expiration dates.
what type "O" for marriage/retirement/having a thai child? Is it a visa? Ie u have to leave every 90 days?
OR an extenison to the first 90 day "O" ie u dont need to leave but do need to report?

U come in on a tourist visa. then change that to a NON o. ( which cancels the toursit visa) then if ur over 50 you get a 1 year extension from the date of the INTIAL entry on the Non O visa
NOT AFTER the first non o expires.
If this is not true please scan and show otheriwse don't say things like this. I have been using phuket imigration for 15 years and know the head guy there.

AS for the laws, NO ONE on any forum has said this is TRUE 100% as of yet, No confirmation only that is was unofficialy listed that the Consoloute in Pennang was going to enforce from Feb 1st. and then that the others might follow. It has always been seen that the small nice consoloute in Kota Baru is much more farang freindly than Penanag.
NOTE on all 1 year extensions everyon eneeds to report to immigration every 90 days or you will be hit witha 2,00 baht fine.

It would seem that the information posted on this forum is 90% incorrect 90% of the time and if you want the real info visit thaivisa.com
Its really nice being told that I am spreading bullshit!

N0 1 My last Penang visa dated 1 Oct 2007 is overstamped "The holder has travelled to Thailand with tourist visa 2 times . The Consulate General may not accept the application next time"

No 2 "O" visa issued 29 Nov 2007 for 3 months.

No 3 Must report on 26 Feb 2008

No 4 Retirement visa issued on same date to start on 26 Feb 2008 and is valid until 26 Feb 2009

By my way of looking at things 29 Nov 2007 - 26 Feb 2009 = 15 months OK?

Have scanned the relevant pages but cant work out how to attach them.

Will PM them to you and perhaps you can admit you were wrong and post them on this thread.

I will repeat

I DON'T KNOW HOW IT HAPPENED BUT HAVE A 15 MONTH RETIREMENT VISA !! OK!

No. your visa was valid for 3 months and your permission to stay is 12 months. The visa doesn't get extended, only the permission to stay.

I think that is a retirement extension and not a retirement visa

I would hazard a guess that you applied for a retirement extension and they added it on to your non imm O
You are usually not allowed to apply for an extension until 28 days before the expiration on your current permission to stay.

TRUE story ,

and the reason why is that your retirement extension starts after your current 3 month non-o expires .

that's all by the by anyway , what's important is your first 90 day report date , don't forget it .
