Late to renew retirement visa
Tuvoc replied to john smith's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I was a few days late with my first renewal - the agent's fault not mine - and there were no issues. The following year I renewed myself, no problems. But you really do need to avoid any overstay not matter how small. I would not advocate any overstay, no matter how short. -
Do find a good builder. Our house was built and with some faults. The builder did fix them except then when it came to the roof which had a small leak, he simply stopped taking phone calls.

Working for a UK Firm in Thailand
Tuvoc replied to Tally Ho's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Will the UK company who employs you let you work in Thailand long term ? Most would not. -
I've been to Anjira's clinic the last couple of weeks. She did a very nice job of fitting a new crown, I'm really happy with it.

Maje sure that you don't reach a judgement based on just one tank, give it two or three I'd say.

The big 2 tricks that many Car Tents and dealers get up to
Tuvoc replied to steevjee's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Don't some ECUs have a tampering alert on them - the ECU will always retain the real mileage that can be read by a standard diagnostic tool. Later BMWs I was told that was the case. Japanese stuff, don't know. -
Yes, they do happen.

I'm a fan of Chiang Rai and the north of Thailand generally. Some people like the beaches; I prefer the mountains and landscapes. Crop burning is a downside, and it drifts across from Myanmar too I think. Nowhere is perfect.
-
Well, got home tonight and the approval email has arrived. So exactly 8 weeks.

Cabinet Approves Visa Extension for Russian Tourists
Tuvoc replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Not correct, there is no distinction. 180 days present in a calendar year and you're tax resident for that year, tourist or otherwise. -
It will be 8 weeks tomorrow since I submitted mine. I guess they got a flood of applications for the old deals.
-
I think that is right but perhaps worse - if you have ever had such a visa at any time past or present. Someone will correct me if wrong.
-
That makes sense. Presumably also if they do approve you and you don't proceed, you also forfeit it. I guess they get quite a bit of that too.
-
I've always had great service from the Chiang Rai office, better than Mae Sai. I think it depends on which IO you get on the day.

Aways a good conspiracy theory
