90 days report less than 90 days
Thingamabob replied to BKKTRAVELER's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Ever since the 90 day legislation was introduced I have always reported in person without any problems. Far less hassle than any other method. -
Just renewed my UK passport here in Bangkok one year prior to expiration of my current passport. Straightforward and efficient, 6 weeks from start to finish. Later had info regarding my previous 1 year extension transferred to my new passport when appying for a further 1 year retirement extension.

Retirement Visa by the 65K thb method
Thingamabob replied to LatPhrao's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
....all of which goes to prove that a retirement extension backed by 800k deposited permanently in an account in your name only is the easiest way to go. -
Immigration going after over stayers?
Thingamabob replied to renegadeseal's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Go to immigration without delay and explain your situation (you may need a Thai speaker to accompany you unless you are competent in spoken Thai). Could be that in the light of current events Immigration will be helpful given you are a Russian passport holder. -
Tangmo’s Companion Admits to Causing Fatal Boat Lurch
Thingamabob replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
This is not remotely concerned with the victim. The 'investigation' is all about who gets what from 30m in compensation, plus the proceeds from an insurance pay-out. -

What is the good news about living in Thailand now?
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well said. -
You must be very new to Thailand, and to Asia in general. In this part of the world many people have to make money to survive any way they can. What you are referring to in your verbose, self-righteous posting is petty corruption. If you can't tolerate it I suggest you should find somewhere else to live.

The sad thing is that most Thais are potentially very bright and are quick learners, but are intentionally held back by those who wish to keep them uninformed and ignorant.
