Marianne ********

DTV is thought of as a type of tourist visa.

Tourist visas do not make you eligible for a bank account.

And getting one through an agent seems to have gotten fairly difficult if not impossible the last few days.

What are the consequences of not filing TM30 in Thailand every time I return from travel?

Marianne ********

I said that.

Rule of thumb for me... Just always get it done. Just in case.

Marianne ********

No.

Any time you change apartments, or hotels, you need your landlord or hotel management to send in a new TM30 for you.

Every time you change accommodation, a new TM30 is required.

How far in advance can I pay the 1900 baht to extend my stay in Thailand by 30 days?

Marianne ********

You normally pay when you submit your application at the Immigration Office.

How long you have to have left on your current stamp varies.

Should I choose a retirement visa or a marriage visa for marrying my Thai fiancé?

Marianne ********

You can use monthly income under a marriage extension, but it might be difficult for your initial visa and first extension. But from the 2nd extension it should be pretty smooth sailing if you've got a monthly deposit of at least 40k.

Monthly income for farang men need to be 40k or for marriage visa.

@Michael *******

it does have to do with OPs question.

He wanted opinions and comparisons of the two types of visa reasons.

One let's you work in Thailand with a work permit, and opens a path to citizenship ( if you also fill other requirements )

The other does not.

That is the comparison. It is relevant.

Marianne ********

The reason for your Non-O and extensions matter.

If the reason is marriage, AND you work with a work permit and make the minimum required income. Then you have a path towards citizenship. You can skip Permanent Residency too.

There are more requirements, of course.

But the path itself is there.
