Non O cancellation
edwardflory replied to jphasia's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Leaving the country without a re-entry permit voids a Visa or a extension of stay automatically. The agent SHOULD know the above. You can (re)enter Thailand ( depending on your passport country ) for 15, 30 or 60 ( new) days permission. Your company SHOULD have the necessary paperwork in order ....hopefully in theory... and be able to provide you with everything you need going forward -
4 out of 4 bookings with a LA Travel Agency with NO problems. 3 were LEX to BKK round trip, last one was BKK to CVG ( $1230 ) round trip tourist. 6 hours average layover time, 1 checked bag, 1 carry on all meals included in cost. I have a FREE USA VOIP phone number so LA, USA and Canada calls are "local" call for me.

Immigration-office Thailand
edwardflory replied to glegolo18's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Go to your LOCAL IMMIGRATION OFFICE to see what THEIR POLICIES are. In the past 11 years, my office has ADDED requirements 3 different times. Usually a LOCAL IO will have a printed list of THEIR requiremens.( POLICY ) As a example, TM-30 policies vary office to office. -
I have deposited money in a ATM using the ATM's bank card without problems. Make sure you are using the CORRECT bank ATM device. There are basically 3 types of ATM's - Update bank book, deposit / withdraw monies, and one used to withdraw monies ( although the ATM's are usually multi function - the ATM to deposit has a sliding door to deposit / receive monies )

Depending on your LOCAL IO policy wants is your answer. My actual stamps transfer from a EMERGENCY US PP to a new 10 year US PP took about 7 minutes. TM-30, you left the country, SOME IO's require a new TM-30 even if returning to same address. Just a suggestion, have your wife sponsor a YELLOW House Book & PINK ID Card, for you - House Book does NOT replace a TM-30, but I have found it useful to prove address. TM-47, DAY 1 is the date you enter Thsiland no matter the time - if stamp says 23:59, this is day 1

I tucked my house book inside my passport

My last entry n Nov of last year was in about 15 minutes, 3 people ahead of me in "express line". At the IO, greet him in Thai, then fingerprints of right hand, PP check - Extension of Stay, re-entry permit up to date and Yellow House Book in PP, done in about 1 1/2 minutes.

My TV salesman says "Free IPTV" with Panasonic/Sony Google HDTV's
edwardflory replied to Furioso's topic in Audio Visual AV
There are a "boat load" of free apk's available for TV / movie viewing if you use a Android based TV device. Also some paid apk's by choice. I do not use IPTV or a smart TV. With a Android device every 2 -3 years you can update the operating system for 1200bt+ buying a new Android device instead of a new "smart TV". I am not a sports fan ( free apk's available). I have the same apk's on mobile as I have on TV device. Tap on photo to see content use SORRY, PHOTO UPLOAD DID NOT GO PROPERLY -
CPU can't search for anything, it is your units speed processing power. OPINION: I PREFER a Android based external device ( I use a Android TV Box ) not a Smart TV ( unless you can upgrade the operating system ). My reason, 1200bt for a NEW UPDATED OS every 2 or 3 years instead of a new smart TV costing ???? As to TV service via a router, ( hardwire or WiFi ) you can get a IPTV service with over 8000 "channels" ( TV channels / Movies / Series / Sports / multiple country TV channels / etc ) for somewhere around 2000bt a year.

TM-30 is required when you move from A to B within 24 hours. MANY offices require if you reenter the country, SOME do not. SOME offices will let YOU do a TM-30 with proper paperwork as possessor. I have done with a: rental agreement / lease, utility deposit receipts and my passport stamps up to date. It all depends on LOCAL OFFICE policy what they require.

I live 20 minutes outside Korat and use AIS FIBER ( connect via WiFi - 1st connection in my community area ) and Android TV Box for MY TV needs, wife uses AIS PLAY Box. Slightly faster speed if you connect to router supplied by provider
-
IF you have WiFi, buy a Android TV Box - 1200bt 1 time, Download many free apks from Play store. I have US, Canadian, UK, and many other country channels ( about 200 channels total ) as well as around 5000 movies at NO cost. If you go IPTV, you can get 8000+ channels ( many English speaking countries )- TV, movies, series etc for around 2000bt a year with a Android TV Box

It all DEPENDS on LOCAL IO policy what hoops you go thru. With my NEW passport I was required to do a new TM-30 ( about 8 minutes ) before the 90 day (3 minutes ) Was just asked by BOTH OFFICES if address was the same - answer was YES , both forms processed with info on computer, I filled out no paperwork. I am known at TM-30 office because I have filed TM-30's for people visiting and staying with me as the possessor of the property.
