?? erm... thats a very odd post.
No one has attacked you - advice has been offered to be sceptical of information from someone who uses ‘hyperbolic language’ - Embassies do not hold passports hostage !!! the idea is preposterous, as is the suggestion that I might work in an Embassy - thats just very strange.
I think it is very strange to hold passport in embassy weeks and not tell reason for it. Dont think it happens in any other countries embassies.
How long before your flight did you got your passport with visa back?

Basically no since the test and fit to fly is only needed to board the flight.
There may be some odd embassies that don't do it like others. I have not heard of them holding a passport or COE until the test is done.
Ok, thanks @ubonjoe

Why the attack, you perhaps work in the embassy?
What else would you call it if his visa and coe are ready and they keep passport until couple days before flight? Why not give it to him already if they not need to see the covid test?!

Hi Joe, so what you are saying that embassy need to see covid test done 72hrs before they release your passport and visa from embassy? Im asking for a friend and embassy in europe.
Thing is he send passport to embassy 2-3 weeks before flight to Thailand and embassy say visa is ready and coe but they dont give passport back to him until 2-5 days before travel date. Is this normal? Could it be because they need see covid test done 72hrs before flight?

How fast you got your passport back from the embassy after visa application? Some are saying they keep passport and coe "hostage" at the embassy until 2-5 days before departure date to Thailand. And you needed to show covid test to the Thai embassy?

yes it does if conditions are met like most other 'normal' countries
Yes, so why they not have same rules elsewhere for thai wifes or husbands then? Have 400000baht in bank account before getting resident permit?

Isn't this similiar to deporting a husband, a falang for immigration reasons that leaves the mother and child fatherless in LOS?
Thailand's gorilla immigration law doesn't let husband get permanent residency like other normal countries.

Not easy to open bank account. They not want farangs to them banks. Kasikorn would open if have work visa but not with non o or retirement visa. Gone are the days of "Love farang" signs and opening bank account with tourist visa.
-
Guy smashed old mans face and thai police just stand there and do nothing! Police in Thailand is absolute disgrace!! Would they stand there and watch him get killed too? If the farang hit thai he would be in handcuffs already im sure. Welcome to LOS.

Uncivilized punters.

Looks horrific. Same same like american corolla.
-
not true. many farang have bank account without work permit
Yes maybe they open them when they didnt check farangs much like nowdays. Last time i ask from bank in Bangkok they said straight no and did not even bother ask anything from me. They should put sign outside No farangs allowed! But let us know if they give finance for car i think not. -
Foreigner can't even get bank acoount in Thailand if not work. You can put car in your name if pay cash or finance in wifes name.

You cannot apply for another visa while in the country.
You could apply for a one year extension of stay based upon marriage during the last 30 days of any of the 90 day entries from the visa at your local immigration office.. You would need 400k baht in a Thai bank for 2 months or proof of 40k baht income.
Why have 400k baht in bank account when after you use the first non o visa ( almost 17months ) just apply new one!? Is there any limit how many times can apply the same non o visa?- 1

Just wanted to comment that a 7% interest will double a loan in a decade (google rule of 72).
If take 1 million baht loan for 10 years at 7% interest. I pay back 2 million baht?

1. Toyota Yaris G 599,000b
2. Mazda 2 sedan 1.3 high 610,000b
3. Ford Fiesta titanium 1.0 664,000b with discount
If buy with finance compare interest rates sometimes theyr 0%.

It´s just s500/600 with added maybach logos thats why cheaper than the original.

My advice get the focus and not look back. Top model for under 600k.
First, why would someone shopping for an SUV want a Focus?
Second, the top model Focus is 1,070,000 Baht.
Third, have you ever read any of the Ford related threads here?
alt=biggrin.png>
you did not read this?
At this stage I have essentially decided to cancel the order. I'll also be taking a long holiday in a month or so, and I don't want the car arriving while I am gone (or just before, for that matter). I don't fancy parking my brand new vehicle in the condo garage for nearly two months immediately after delivery. So, I have been looking at alternatives with my must-have features (6 airbags, leather seats, reasonable city size) and am thinking about nearly-new vehicles like the MY2013 Ford Focus Titanium+, which can be had for about 60% of the price of the HRV-EL thanks to very rapid depreciation of Fords. Doesn't have everything I want, but would suit my needs for running around the city a few times a month when BTS is not convenient. Currently have an Accord rental, which is nice to drive but a pain to maneuver and park here in central BKK.
2nd hand 13-14 model focus can get for under 600k.
"have you ever read any of the Ford related threads here?" Yes.

Sound like ball-joints needs to be replaced.
-
One option to keep in mind theres many used cars 13-14 models with low kms for sale example honda crv at 800-900b price range. Good luck.

I would cancel the order and walk to other dealer or change brand. How much you paid deposit for them? usually it's about 5k.
