show me a link. otherwise a pointless post

why would the UK press post about Thai income taxation

a very bad taste comparison,

no flip flop here, just a call to review immigration rules, everyone knows the old rules are outdated and abused

IO need to see bank statement/book that show that he has complied with money in Bank rules, ie 800k for 2 months prior to application and 3 months after stamp in passport, then can drop to 400k until 2 months before new application, been that way for a few years now

I think the problem arises from people's confusion over what is stamped in their passports, a 'visa' is normally issued outside of Thailand, some can be issued inside Thailand ie non immigrant 'O' visa as part of a conversion, but non immigrant 'O''A' can not be issued inside Thailand an 'extension' to the permission to stay is issued inside Thailand, be it 30 days, 60 days or longer all 1,900thb. I think the op is not making it clear what he has and what he wants, this makes it harder to give correct advice

if you do go for the married 1st year to retirement 2nd year, the new extension will start from date of application, not date of expiry of old extension

they want to check all other passports are in the same name, its normal if you have more than 1 nationality wherever you apply from

what, dragged into the corruption

Rayong, old passport visa info entered onto first page of new passport, but still require original visa

and you know this how

maybe as actual visa is in old passport, yearly extensions always where i live require site of the 'visa'

here are 3 ways to enter Thailand other than with a re-entry permit those are Visa exempt/visa waver at present it gives 60 days entry permission on entry , stamped in passport by immigration officer on entry to Thailand Tourist visa obtained out side Thailand this gives a 60 entry permission on entry Non immigrant 'O' visa this gives a 90 entry permission on entry. this can then in the last 30 days allow for a 1 year extension of your permission to stay stamp. either for marriage or retirement ( over 50) Visa exempt and tourist visa can be converted within Thailand to a Non immigrant 'O' visa as part of a conversion process if you list the dates of any planned trips someone could advise the best course of action

does your actual visa expire on 21st may, or the latest 90 day permission to stay stamp you received on entry into Thailand' another option would be another visa from savannakhet

get someone in to have a look around
