One Year Visa Help

[MrOne]

Does anyone know a quick tuturial on how to get and apply in Australia for the ...

 

One Year Multiple Entry Non-Immigrant Visa for AUS Citizens

 

I can get a agency to do it but I guess I will need to do this a few times as I travel and so I need to learn.

 

I have a office here in Perth Western Australia that i see handles Visa's - on the net it says so - so I wonder if anyone knows what I need to take and what I can expect. I am basing myself in Pattaya and flying around the world from there and back again every month or two or so and then returning to AU and coming back 4-6 weeks later to do more jetsetting around. This way I can come and go and only get one way ticket in and book the rest from there and leave when I am ready.

 

Thanks if anyone knows

I have got 2 of them from Perth and it is very easy. You can get a visa issued in 2 days. They take 2 days as they are only open in the morning on Tuesdays and Thursday. If you go to the consulate on Tuesday you can pick up the passport on Thursday. They will also take applications via post and send it back via post. I think you have to send in a stamped and self addressed envelope. The only thing I sent them other than the application form is a copy of my GFs Thai ID card. I suggest getting in contact with them as I have found them helpful.

I went to see them in Perth and they gave me a triple entry visa with 60 days on each so I have 60 days to stay at any time with concurrent to a total of 6 months. By then I would have my condo and she said she would give me a 1 year multi entry visa so I can travel and come and go as I want.

 

Thanks Scumbag

I don't know what you are offering here so this may not be relavent to you. However as I understand it it is not legal to have a non-imm type-O visa issued while you are within Thailand.

I'm surprised they didn't give you a non-imm type-0. I'd never had a visa before my first one. Then again I had my GF with me when I applied so that may have helped.

I got my Non-Imm-O visa in BKK. I went and got an extension and then walked upstairs and applied for it. I went back in two weeks and they stamped it in my passport. Now, i am married to a Thai, so I don't know if that matters or not. I then went on to get me married year visa, which took 60 days.

 

I was here for 5 months and never had to leave the country once while I was doing all of this. Bangkok immigration was more helpful and courteous than Pattaya or SriRacha.

I mailed my passport to another country to renew my visa and was arrested for being in Thailand with no passport...I didn't show the exit tax on my passport...

I contacted the consulate in Perth and asked if I could do the same. They told me that they could only process applications for people present in the state at the time. However, I think it would be unlikely that they would notice that I didn't have an exit stamp for the country I was in as I have shit loads of stamps. I wouldn't even consider doing it from Thailand for the reason you got caught out on, fucking Murphy's law...

A very Clever Thai supervisor who took 30 minutes looking thru my passport when I was entering Thailand from the North Burma entry..He saw the VISA stamp but then ask where I was when I got the stamp? What airport did I fly out from? He had me boxed in...
