  1. not only did they miss the stamp in his passport, but they missed it 3 times, and he happens to have a friend who arrived a few weeks back, and they missed his stamp as well, and not only that because he can not count he is late for a 90 day report, but he only arrived a few weeks ago, also tm6's have been done away with, so i think peterfranks is spot om with his post, how many posters on here can honestly post they have had the same thing happen to them, i for one can not.
  2. do you receive sms messages, some of these are chargeable, go to true move shop and get them to sort it out
  3. you can do a conversion to non imm visa 'retirement' if over 50 (2,000thb), but will need 800,000tb in a bank account in your name only on day of application and have 14 days left on your permission to stay stamp
  4. i was always understood its best to obtain the 1st Uk passport in the place of birth, ie born in Thailand obtain in Thailand
  5. single entry tourist visa entry (only available outside Thailand) 60 day entry stamp, together with a 30 day extension (1,900thb) gives you 90 days, a border bounce for a visa exempt 30 day entry stamp with an extension another 30 days that's 150 days
  6. may not will lead to a criminal investigation, but only if caught
  7. you could enter on a visa exempt entry(30 day stamp) and then either 1/ apply for a non immigrant visa ( 2,000thb )at local immigration office you will need 800,000 transferred from abroad in a bank account in your name only, money only has to be in the bank on the day of application, no seasoning required, which will give you a 90 day stamp, in the last 30 days and when the money in the bank has seasoned apply for a one year retirement extension (1,9000thb ) or 2/ apply for a 30 day extension if more time is required to get bank account sorted etc. (1,900thb) and then do as 1/ above no medical or police check is required at any stage. keep away from agents
  8. enjoyed the first few episodes looked hopeful,but then it got silly, so didn't watch anymore
  9. i don't think they are fake year visa's but i believe some yearly extensions are issued by immigration offices without all the requirements being fully checked
  10. not quite the same is it, ones a tourist location so should be easy,as they want the tourists and long stayers, the other two are a place where immigrants want to enter illegally
  11. op check medisafe via messenger the times i have checked Fascino were far from the cheapest, recently i needed to find some Ramipril 5mg, at a local pharmacy near to me they were 650thb for 30 tablets, on a trip down south i forgot my medicine and called into a pharmacy in Hua Hin 500thb for 30, i checked with fascino 750thb for 30, i was looking for a generic brand, all of the above pharmacies only had non generic brand, i contacted medsafe on messenger, generic version 585 for 100, delivered 2 days later for 40thb
  12. i would travel across to Savannakhet on arrival, skipping the overnight stay in Mukdahan, when in Savannakhet try Cafe Chez Boune Restaurant, really good food, is the Thai embassy Savannakhet issuing multi entry non imm 'O' thai wife visa's
  13. not quite correct, a Thai national living in Thailand can get a Uk state pension if she has contributed at least 10 years UK NI contributions being married or not doesn't come into it, but would make no difference, you would be correct for other benefits.
  14. i think that's a view shared by older UK drivers, and its well outdated, modern auto's are reliable, easy to drive, compared to the old 4 speed auto's of yesteryear
  15. arriving on the 5th October you would be stamped in visa exempt until the 3rd November
  16. No combination method for 'married' extensions
  17. you must be bring money in for monthly living expenses, so after the extension has been approved start using the 400,000 as monthly living expenses and then top up to the 400,000 2 months before re-applying the following year, you only need to keep the 400,000 in the bank for the seasoning period of 2 months, some IO require it to be there for the under consideration period, keep away from Agents.
  18. if you change the reason for the yearly extension the new extension will start on the day of application, not on the day after the current extension expires.
  19. anyone know the latest requirements for doing a 5year to 5 year licence renewal at pattaya DLT, i have done the online 1 hour video, ie having to book an appointment, doctor letter, immigration letter copies of passport etc. thanks
  20. easy /m pass are not specific to one car, so can be swapped around, the funds have no expiry date, easy pass can be topped up at 7/11 i don't think m pass can, all easy/m pass lanes are to the right hand side, but don't get confused with m-flow, which are the same colour blue and also on the right hand side, a camera reads the number plate, so keep out of these lanes, ( unless registered) each car must be registered with m-flow.
  21. what did you need for the renewal, did you have to book an appointment online
  22. joint accounts are no good for immigration purposes. but all banks will do a joint account, yes you could have 2 accounts
  23. I would think a lot of the ambulances are tied up doing house calls in place of the GP's who don't do it anymore, in fact the GP's don't like to see sick people anymore, but like the money they get for having the same people on their books
  24. did you organise it so that your extension will expire while you are out of the country, so you will have to start again on re-entry with a fresh non imm 'O'
  25. your local immigration office may have a solution over the phone, or by someone going on your behalf, i would stay clear of agents
