TB Immigration Info Brief 098/19 – Immigration Hua Hin – Year Extension (TM7), 90 days (TM 47)
Notification: Barry
Subject: Immigration Hua Hin
Extension annual visa (Retirement type O) in Hua Hin, based on income more than 65.000 thb per month and income check letter consul Austria in Pattaya (accepted). Was here yesterday at 13.00 pm and was out again 1,5 hours later with visa extension. Overall impression: friendly professional efficient better than before Jomtien.
Bonus: the 90-day notification can be made in the Blueport shopping mall there has an immigration office, so Hua Hin is well organized
That's another way to do it.
Note: “Reactions are very welcome on the subject, but limit yourself here to the subject of this “TB Immigration Infobrief. If you have other questions, if you would like to see a topic covered, or if you have information for the readers, you can always send it to the editors.

I have learned that such things in Thailand mainly depend on the day you go and who you go with. For the same money, tomorrow someone with exactly the same documents and in exactly the same situation will go there and make things difficult. There's just no hard and fast rule.
I recently asked a question at Immigration Jomtien. I asked exactly the same question to 3 people sitting less than three meters apart and got a different answer 3 times.
There is also no more communication between people….people don't talk to each other anymore…..they just play on their phone
Since digitization, everyone actually knows something and nothing. That is not only in Thailand, so I notice that more and more with us in the West. No one knows how or what.
Einstein already said that once digitization would be a fact, people would go crazy. He's getting right.
Dear Fred, was there already digitization in Einstein's time.
Jan Beute.
I thought I read that he predicted things about it. I look it up sometime.
Einstein literally said: “I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiotsl.
You only have to look around to see that he is right on his side.
Last Wednesday I also went to immigration in Hua Hin (Smart Village) for extension of retired visa and 90 day notification. Was provided with all documents and also proof of income (via afidavid of the Belgian embassy in Bkk), walked in at 8.45 and at 9.15 I will have coffee at my house.
Overall impression: friendly professional efficient better than before Jomtien. ?? if you are in order with everything, there is no problem in Jomtien, only the difference that you can only pick up your passport the next day may be due to the number of treatments per day.
A good acquaintance visited Immigration in Hua Hin last week. He is seriously ill, often staggers and walks with a cane. The income statement was calculated in baht at 30 baht for one euro. So insufficient income. A sleeve could be adjusted for a fee of 30.000 baht. The (sick) man did not have that. He is officially married to a Thai. Then he only needs 40.000 income per month. Wife goes home to get the marriage certificate. Extension could be arranged at 8.000 baht. He only received a receipt for the 1900 baht that the extension cost.
The exchange rate of € 1 = TBH 30 you quoted seems strange/low to me. I took a look at my pensions/AOW last September and it turned out that a rate of TBH 33,47 had been used. Let's just say: free interpretation of the relevant immigration official. In this way, almost 9% is discounted on the actual exchange rate. So why not use a 20% lower rate? Then even more people/applicants will drop out.
And simply issuing a mariage visa also seems to be a form of arbitrariness. Others who want to obtain such a visa must provide all kinds of information and proof in addition to “marriage booklet”.
Good of course for your knowledge, that it is "arranged" but it remains an extremely curious way or use of power (fill in the missing letters yourself on dots).
Of course it's annoying when something like this happens to you. But I think this sick acquaintance went to immigration completely unprepared. Even with 33 baht it would have been close. Could he have already watched it at home? He probably came to this conclusion.
He could then have arranged all his papers for a so-called marriage extension at his leisure.
It's been said here several times! Do not go the last week or day before your visa extension.
If something goes wrong, you're screwed.
George, that's not the point. It concerns perfidious officials who knowingly abuse a seriously ill and old man. Complaining does not help and fleeing is no longer possible.
Whether cut edge or not with TBH 33, what matters is that a course is apparently “picked” at will by an official at Immigration. If the applicant looks at home beforehand and sees a rate of say TBH 33, then he need not assume that the official in question uses a free interpretation of the rate.
Just as that civil servant apparently also (against payment TBH 8.000) uses a free interpretation of the procedure for applying for a marriage visa. Or (for an even higher payment (TBH 30.000) suddenly has a speck in his eye and uses a generous / much higher exchange rate € / Baht.
No planning can be made with that type of civil servant.
