After getting all my paperwork done to renew my  non O-A visa (obtained 4 years ago in US),  a trip to the bank for the cert of deposit, 2 trips to immigration, waiting 1.5 hours...........

I just found out about the new insurance requirements.   Min cost is 40,000 and it takes a week to get the policy.   My US insurance that I pay $6,000 a year for is good over here but it has to be "thai insurance".

Anybody found other options like the "fixers" that get you around the bank account requirements?

Besides being illegal, "daily" occupants in my building are usually noisy at all times, day and night.

Some are even advertising on the internet.

Food for sure. Smoked salmon is good choice.

Is that a fish they would like and not available here?

Jelly beans are another great idea.

What would be a good gift to bring from America for the ladies working in an office?  I was thinking maybe a big jar of mixed nuts.

You dont get it....if they not keen on internet banking you think there going to use Apple Pay or the like? try and tell a street vendor he's going to have a mobile net plan and cough up for a gizmo to swipe plus pay what ever the % is to Apple for the privilege of them to collect the fee?

 

They dont need a marketing gimmick there doing just fine...

Nobody has yet told them how the world revolves around Apple.

Glad I waited on buying an NMax, this one might be even better.  ABS is sure a lifesaver.

As a dual citizen, how do I change my Non OA visa in my US passport to my Belize one?

Can a Belize citizen get the non oa visa by meeting all the requirements that a US or EU citizen does?

Which embassy would issue it?
