I recently had stamps transferred to a new UK passport at CW, supported by an embassy letter supplied by VFS. Nothing else required. If you need, or want, to use an agent I would suggest that the one you currently have should be able to deal with this without any hassle for you.

I welcome this, but I'm far from sure many of the working girls/women will. Many of them enjoy the freedom of being outside the law and off the radar. Anyway, highly doubtful it will ever happen given local sensitivities on the issue.

Horrific death of 11 in passenger van crash in Thailand
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I'm not sure it's about physical driving skills which are generally good in Thailand. In my opinion it's more about lack of concentration, tiredness leading to sleep, drink and drugs. -
Manufacturers Urged to Shift to Renewable Energy to Reduce Costs
Thingamabob replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
In addition to their ugliness, ineffectiveness without wind, and the high cost of materials to manufacture them, windmills also horribly kill and maim birds. In summary, they are a useless nightmare. -
If public health is one of his responsibilities his visit is entirely justified. By the way he's a multi-millionaire who certainly doesn't need to grub around for free trips.

How depraved must somebody be to want to do this to a one year old ? This disgusting individual should be put inside for a long time. Meantime, where is the girl's mother ?

Awful, despicable human beings. I hope the little one somehow gets the chance for a good life.

You need to buy time. Maybe you could apply for a 30 day extension on line assuming you have copies of your passport. If nothing happens after 3 weeks I'm afraid you will have to go the police/embassy route. Sorry for your predicament. I've heard of agents who perform well for years and then suddenly disappear, usually as a result of money problems.

US hits debt ceiling, prompting Treasury to take extraordinary measures

This is where most Democrat Party governments in the US finish up. -
Woman Senator Lashes At Prayut For Doing Nothing To Combat Corruption
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
On the contrary. She was criticised by those who wanted her decisions to be made according to their instructions, rather than her making decisions based on the facts. She has always walked where others fear to tread, and all credit to her for that. She bravely risks reprisals in one form or another... -
She may have been out cold on drink or drugs, or both.

Mine is. Why do you ask ?

Keep it going guys. No need for an early resolution........

You're such a good guy for reporting this. I hope you found the girl some other means to earn money.

Yes proof of funds letter from bank
Thingamabob replied to jwest10's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Since SCB closed it's branch at CW I have presented a bank letter dated one day before the day I apply, likewise my bank book update. Several years later and these have always been accepted without comment. -
Clarkson's first mistake was not to tone down the offending article which was over the top. His second mistake, however, was to apologize for it.

If you don't already you need to get to know the rich and powerful in Thailand. You'll find that the baht strengthens when they are making overseas investments.

Donald Trump's Saudi Arabia Payments Spark Calls for Fresh Investigation
Thingamabob replied to Scott's topic in World News
Nothing of any interest in this. Trump haters blowing hot air as usual. Move on... -
Not a lot....

Should be ok given your extension expires on a Sunday, but common sense to apply earlier rather than take the risk. Hopefully this is not too difficult to understand.

Gosh ! Such perspicacity. Well done.

I've been mugged twice in my life, once in Metro Manila, and once in Blackheath, south London. The main problem in London and other large cities in the UK appears to be knife crime, gun crime less so up to now.

I heard on the radio the shooter was likely a member of a Columbian drugs cartel, living in the UK courtesy of the Home Office, whose officials granted him a UK visa. If this is correct yet another stunning performance by the UK civil service.

A Thai man.

Every country in the world does all it can to make money out of tourists. In this case, in Thailand, they are being asked to pay 100 baht extra. Wow ! Who can possibly afford such a huge sum ? My suggestion ? Don't ever leave your own country in the first place. Utterly pathetic.
