Until your F visa still in timeframe and not past date, you can leave and re-enter on F visa. Only a problem is your old visa which you need to cancel. If you have a letter from employee, you better have it with date you visit immigration. Then, do not do any 7-days extension, just fly-back to Kuala Lumpur and activate your F visa. Flights drom Don Mueang by Air Asia, 5 times per day, you can reach airport on taxi from Immigration in 15 minutes drive...

Situation with NON-B/NON-ED - based extensions not clear for many expats... Letter from employee/Letter from school can cancel extension on date letter issued. Ask employer for letter with date you want visit immigration, then you avoid overstay

Meanwhile your WP and extension will expire anyway.

Where is your WP now? If you have it in hand, better return it to Labour Department. They may ask you a fine, but it only 1000 thb

Because most of them will go inside your dossier @ Ministry of Education and for letters of Extension you will obtain every 3 months

Yellow Book is perfectly enough.

Ypu can't obtain compensation from any of RU airlines. Direct flight from London next time saves time and nerves

Your question in the row of other "why's". Do copies of documents and walk to nearest post office is enough to make report. Reporting by mail exist for years already. This is practically the same as extempt from additional visits to CW.

Advise him obtain 30 days extension first, then border run, then 60 days 2-nd entry + 30 days extension. He will have close to 6 month stay permit in total.

1 year temporary Drivers license can be obtained then renewed to 5 years permanent (oxymoron) using ED visa.

Credit card with deposit and ED visa can be issued by several banks to foreigner.

Depends of amount... You definitely can buy some HKD at Suwarnabhumi airport.

I recommend using Thai banks debit card to withdraw HKD if you have thai debit card. When you exit arrival passport control at HKIA, you will see a lot of ATM's on right hand side. I used HSBC many times, no problems.

You can make NON-O for spouse. Even more - for family members. Not so long ago one client of my friends in Real Estate business, obtain it and also make NON-O-s for wife and 3 child, good option for big family if you have enough funds of course...

You can ask airline first, but... Do you have a Russian visa? Moscow is not a Hong Kong, where a lot of nationals can go outside airport to enjoy shopping.

The req. was a dumb, cos tourist is tourist, and for what reason he need to deposit in Thai bank? No reason. Better go Vientiane, anything straight

My visa information was transferred using big stamp which include visa type and number, first arrival stamp and extensions so far. In old passport I also had stamp about new passport number and visa transfer date.

Forget it. You will not get refund for bags. AA web works the way you need to REMOVE options, not add them. My first booking I was be as boss, cos AA sells for me insurance, food, baggage and comfort kit Next bookings just remove unneeded positions.

of course you need to transfer visa from your expiring passport to new. This is free. No one can actually move a sticker to new passport, but all information will be moved using stamps. If you obtain new passport not in your Embassy here, maybe you will need to ask paper from Embassy about your new passport.

Ask immigration first, but I also can't see any problem for bank to move your account under new promo program without changing account number...

PIN was written on the reverse side of this card

She can ask bank, but this is a policy for any bank worldwide - pin is the same thing as signature. If money withdrawn using correct PIN, no refunds.

Sharp Thainess

OK! Can sharp now:

1. Buy a condominium and obtain yellow book. - Completely replaces any temporary address proofs

2. Open company, employ local people and obtain NON-B+WP - can switch to Post Paid mobile

3. Marry Thai woman and have kids with her

4. Speak fluent Thai

"Would you prefer that I didn't visit China and medically assist young Chinese children? Would you prefer that I didn't share my expertise with Chinese medicos? Is that what you want?"

-----

No, they just want to see you not some other foreigner, who want to work illegally in the country. The same way I can blame them "When I visit China, a lot of restaurants, hotels, airlines and some nice Hubei girls will be happy much to see me!".

So, you can give them proof of funds and they happy. Nothing much difficult.

A lot of tourists frustrated same way. They even not ask how much they must to have... I can tell, just $100 per day.

I forget my passbook first time, then come back once more with it and apply without problems.

1. Know for sure your travel dates - get a VISA around end of September

2. Otherwise do border run. A lot of them from Cambodia boring but cheap and to flight to Malaysia then back same day.

3. FYI there is NOT any online extensions

Please share your experience after visiting Department of Labour. AFAIK the best way to return any WP, even expired one.

AYA Service google them

BUT have printed copy of your onward ticket is good idea.

Bangkok Bank can accept them nationwide, but rate will be low. In Pattaya sometimes you can change for better rate. I advise to buy USD in 100$ notes and change them later.
