Is EVA Air currently flying from Bangkok to the U.K. after their COVID cancellations?

David *******

@Joanne ***********

There are now no flights available on their website for the next 30 days so it looks as if they’ve delayed the restart once again and will cancel more flights as time moves on.

David *******

Their latest restart has been announced for July. Previous restarts have been cancelled. I’d wait until they actually start flying the route before booking. Only a couple of weeks away now.

Is there a lower financial requirement for retirees with consecutive type "O" visas?

David *******

If when you did your first Extension of Stay the requirement was 400k and you’ve done annual Extensions without a break every year since, then the old rule still applies to you. Won’t be many people left that this applies to though.

How many times can you renew the Non-Immigrant O visa in Thailand?

David *******

@Martinello *********************

When you enter Visa Exempt you get 30 days. You can then extend once for another 30 days. However, under special Covid rules you can then apply for a ‘Covid extension’ to stay longer.

They may stop giving this extension but you can currently apply.

@Martinello *********************

They are currently still giving Covid extensions, though they’ve become more difficult. You need to go to your nearest Immigration Office with the necessary paperwork and apply. That way you don’t need to leave the country.

@Martinello *********************

You can. Companies used to offer ‘border runs’ where you’d jump in a minivan and they’d take you to the nearest border and back again. More complicated due to Covid. Land borders only just opening again and you need a Thailand Pass.

If you do it too many times you can be flagged by immigration.

You can stay in Thailand permanently by getting an Extension of Stay each year. You never need another visa. If you want to leave Thailand and return you get a Re-entry Permit. You can do this as many times as you like.
