    I wound not trust it. I have tried an Australian wine from the Big C supermarket at 169 Baht a bottle. It tasted perfect. The only Thai drink I trust is Chang beer knowing it has won the top prize at 2 European beer festivals.

    Where you get your information from? Chang never won and will never win any prize in an European Beer Festival, what a jike!

    You find 500 better beers in Europe

  2. from the moment you become thai citizen, you can´t get fined for overstay! 

    you can leave thailand to laos, cambodia or myamar with your thai ID card and then fly from there to England.

    Or you leave on your thai passport. As there a 2 differnet names, how you ever get problem with matching your british and thai passport? And for sure you could solve it even at any IMO in the country. On what base you want to detain somebody for overstay, if he has Thai ID card? No way!

  3. your child is Thai citizen, they can´t deny boarding for the child! 

    and you should use a layer in Thailand who work this out with IMO. 

    For sure this blacklist nreak human rights, which Thailand signed for.

    I am sure if you go to court or the father of the child, the blacklist will be removed.

    You should read what the OP has said, he has been warned that his child MUST get a Visa as the child is using the Visa Exempt method to many times

     

    And NO Immigration Officers at the Airport DO NOT have to offer a visa possibility for a child or anybody for that matter, it is not in their power to do so, Immigration at the Airport do not issue visas so stop talking rubbish

    you are talking rubish, because you say that the kid wouldn´t be allowed to enter Thailand on a 30 days stamp and this is not true, many people enter thailand 10 or 20 times a year on a 30 days stamp and they are adults. 

    You talking only in Theorie, same like when people talking about  you getting arested if you work online in Thailand, or if you refix your house or simelar work. 

    you have 2000 posts, I gues you not have a real life, that you have time to talk about everything without any proofen example. 

    Tell me 1 case where a child got refused traveling with parents who have a valid Visa?

    How they know the kid lives in Thailand, if it leaves all the time?

    Children must have a visa. Allowing them in without one could mean in time that they dissapear of the radar and become "illegal" adults. Visa`s and the `permission to stay` after being allowed to enter is a way to keep track of the ones one allowed entry.  Just allowing them entrance without further ado will not happen in your home country either. 

    they do not need a visa, because entry will be 30 days entry stamp, nothing else

    last year my son was under 15 and he was here on overstay for 8 month, now as he is 15 he has education visa, he never had a problem, not in school or travelling in Thailand.

     

    and You forget that the kid is 8 years old and to become illegal adult would take 10 years and easy to track as parents have Visa. 

    You can´t force familys to pay 500000 thb for a visa for a kid. and as I told before no IMO would do this at the airport, would stamp kids passport all the time with 30 days

    Talking about overstay fines for children is not the issue here, the OP has been told by Immigration that he must get a visa for his child as they enter Thailand frequently

     

    If he did not get the Elite card then it's more than likely his child would have been refused entry at some point by using the visa exempt method, he has been warned about using this method by Immigration already

     

     

    OMG, 

    so you will say, that if they travel to thailand and the parents have valid Visas or extension, the IMO will denien a 8 y old child entry? 

    use your brain, this will never happen! Her will be granted Entry without any problem. Or the IMO has to offer a Visa possibility for the kid. 

    Buy a Elite card for the kid is isane and a taff joke for all who live and work in Thailand.

    Never ever IMO would stop a child at the border! For what reason? work illegal? 5555

    To clarify my post, I was assuming the OP is after a 'visa' (extension of stay) to allow his parents to live in Thailand.

     

    your parents can´t be get extension because you are married to a thai, Onyl if you would be underage (21) and you would leagaly live in Thailand, like ED Visa, and even then they would need 500.000 baht on bank or yearly income 

    Your parents would get a 3 month Non O Visa visiting family, but no extension in your case

    Anything you where told is not valid, since it is not on paper. I assume you have a rental contract, signed by both parties, which can be used for residence certificate, which you get from any immigration office.

     

    I have gotten those several times for a Motorbike or bank account, never needed any Thai ID with, just the contract and my passport (+ a few hundred baht)

     

    why you give a wrong aanswer?

    1. certificate of residence is free by law! 

    2. How somebody can sign a contract without proofing the ownership, in every contract I ever signed in Thailand there is a copy of ID added, from both sides. 

    3. Go to IMO and report that the owner don´t want to give you a ID card copy and show your rental contract. They will solve it.

    4. For a certificate of residence you can use your old rental contract with the ID cards of the agents. I am sure that the IMO will not check it down to land office . I used for 4 years every time the first contract we signed even he run only 1 year, nnever any problem

    You need a certificate of residency to sell a bike or car Valid for 30 days. 

    You don´t need if you sell a bike any confirmation, you give the buyer a copy of your passport, including your visa or last entry stamp, 

    you sign this copies, and you have to sign the transfer paper from Transportation office as the old owner, that´s all!

  10. I don´t know how it is in other IMO offices, but in Chiang Mai it is strict,

    1. not you, but the landlord or the possessor of the house (apartment) has to make this report, it can be also made online!!

    2. you can´t be fined, because a foreigner gives his address already at the arrival card.

    3. you have only to report the change of address, if you move.

    4. It´s not if you travel in Thailand, only if you come back from outside Thailand.

    5. The fine in Chiang Mai is 1600 THB

     

    I made the new education Visa extension for my son last week in CM IMO at airport, all papers ok, but then the lady said, the house owner has to report  my son staying there , he was in Europe for 1 month in June, came back to CM 4.7. and enter CM IMO at airport.We see our landlord 1 times a year when we pay rent. So my gf has to report my son, pay 1600 THB fine, otherwise he wouldn´t get his new extension.

    Even he didn´t make anything wrong and it is the same address like last year on the Visa aplication.

    We meet a friend there who made a new retirement extension, his wife also had to pay, it was 3 pm and the investigation office was full of people, who paid fine. 

    Good luck to the people who live alone in a rental place and the owner, lives at a different place/town.

    The information Patrck provided is correct, including what he specified in his later reply: she is required to leave by plane and re-enter by air. A border run will not do it. Later always exit on the Thai passport, showing the foreign passport in lieu of a required visa if questioned. My children are traveling like this for more than 25 years. 

    she not need to leave with play, she can leave at any border, she get an exit stamp in the foreign passport, and enter the other country on her Thai passport or even on Thai ID card, and then she goes back with THai passport or ID card, 

    there is no reason to fly, 

    How can people here give all the times wrong and stupid advises?

    Do the immigrants to Sweden inject foreign-sourced capital to the Swedish economy and contribute to creating more jobs for Swedish people - or the exact opposite?  Big difference, there.  Thailand is absolutely correct to remove any foreigner whose presence creates a net-loss to the Thai economy and, therefore, does not benefit the Thai people.

     

    OP - use Tourist Visas from here on - No More Visa Exempt Entries.  At some point in the future, there may be an issue using serial Tourist Visas to stay here, but for now, only a few checkpoints (Aranyaprathet / Poipet, for example) will cause any fuss about it. 

     

    Just be prepared for the possibility of a future change in Thailand's Tourist Visa policy, and keep an eye out on this site for any sign of trouble.  Should such a change happen in the future, you may wish to obtain an Ed-visa (~35K Baht / yr total cost), which will buy some time until you can plan your next move.

    what foreigner create a net loss to thai economy? every foreigner creates a net win to the economy. 

    if you don´t understand economic, than you should write b***shit here, 

    and there is no work permit for working oversea online, how Thailand can somebody allow to work in another country, for foreign company´s? if such a work permit would exist, they would have to give the work permit holders access to the Thai market also, o social insurance aso. 

    you not breaking any law in Thailand if you working online by yourself without any other company person in Thailand involved

     

     

  13. again a lot of b**lshit here about this topic. no police can you fine, only immigration and it will go to court. 

    helping your wife is not work, especially if it is a help what takes minutes,  definition of work is different from helping somebody.

    but here the people like to share rumors and stupid opinions.

    abd I know what i am talking about, I had 6 officer from IMO in our restaurant, and I not paid anything or get any problem

     

  14. As another poster said contact ThaiVisaService, they can check if you are blacklisted for a fee of around 3000 Baht

    If you are blacklisted I doubt you would get back in and could also be charged with attempting to enter the country illegally

    there is no charge or anything else, he not attemp the country illegally, he goes through Immigration using a

    original passport, worse case can be they don´t let him in, that´s all

  15. my gf and me we own a restaurant/bar in the old town of CN, the week after Songkran i saw in the bar opposite 3 thai men sitting around 4.30 pm, drinking small Chang with a drinking straw and playing with their phones and tablets, so I went there and ask why they make fotos/movie of our place and the answer wasm it´s a free country, 1 minute later they came to us ask me for my passport, if I was working aso, meantime they were 7 guys, I saw their IMO ID but they have been very polite,

    I asweredm that I am not workingm I only aswered some questions from customers, and that we have staff working here,

    they wait 15 minutes untill my gf came from their work in hotel, talked to her, checked my passport, ask how many people living there, I answered, me my gf and my 15 years old son, they missed the 90 days report in the passport, but my extension was ok, just 1 week ago I got 1 year extension on retirement (3rd one)

    finally my gf has to go to IMO office with them 7 pm, my 90 day report they not care, they told me to sort it out in the next days, my gf payed 1600 fine for not reporting me within 24 hours. The gave her a adress for doing the report online in the future,

    even this i dont understand because the rental contract is on my name and the business runs on her name.

    The IMO officers interviewed more people around also foreigners, I guess they were looking for some guy or maybe some random check, I was a little bit concerned about they going against me for working, but they have been very polite, never ask for money or tried to make any problem.

    BTW the 90 day problem I will solve by going out of the country for some days

  16. The cannot cancel your extension or work permit without your consent. You would have to go immigration yourself to cancel the extension and grant them power of attorney for them to cancel your work permit.

    They have to give you a termination letter for you to cancel your extension and if leaving from some border crossing you will not be allowed to leave the country without one.

    You have a legal right to 30 days notice and severance pay under the Labour Protection Act B.E. 2541 (1998) You could file a complaint at the labor ministry if they violate it.

    so this means everybody who has a work pemit in Thailand, cant go out of the country?

    I can believe this, nobody cant go for holidays, bussiness trips, family visits?

    So all the CEO´s, hotelmanages, aso have to quit their job, if they want to leave the country?

    for sure this is not true, if you have a valid passport you can leave thailand whenever you want

  17. You will have to cancel the visa extension prior of leaving Thailand as it could be very well that the exit would be denied. A friend of mine worked for a BOI company and did not cancel his visa, as he tried to exit via Suvanabhum Airport, the exit was denied and he had to go back to Chiang Mai to cancel the visa at the local immigration. Other borders may require only a termination letter of the employer but to be sure, the best option is to cancel the visa extension at your local immigration before leaving and it saves a lot of tears

    I don't recall any other report of a person being denied departure from country at an airport because they did not camel their extension. I suspect there may of been more to the story than what you were told.

    Many people have left at the border with a termination letter and did not have a problem.

    what i dont understand how INO can stop you from leaving Thailand if you have a valid passport and no overstay! There is no law for this. It would mean than every GEO or Manager of á Thai Company who is a foreigner has to cancel his work Permit and Extension. By law you can travel how often you want, may be your Job is to travel and work outside of Thailand sometimes.

    May be you Need for the Extension a reentry Permit, this i dont know but to stop people traveling because they work in Thailand make no sense and would be against international law.

  18. If a person with Thai nationality enters the country with a passport from another country they fall under the same immigration rules as anybody else. They will be fined for an overstay if they are over the age of 15.

    The issue is not getting the child a passport it is establishing their Thai nationality by getting a Thai birth certificate.

    what thai person ever got fined for overstay in Thailand?

    this isn´t possible!

    nobody can overstay in his home country

    Thai legal system is based on Anglo-Saxon System,

    you even can pass the border with no passport and you not breaking a law in your home country.

    a thai national would even enter thailand through passport control with a ID card or birth certificate

    or any proof of nationality.

    but this is of course theory because there is a need for a passport in the country you come from.

    An overstay can only be if you need a permission (Visa) for entering Thailand, but a Thai person doesn´t need this!

  19. I don't know about you, but I have seen many business closing in Thailand. in tesco by example, lot of booths are empty. I have heard that many Thai are now very worry because they have no more customers.

    some have tried to open restaurant and now are back at the night market.

    I see less foreigners, it means less customers, and less jobs for thai.

    Chinese don't spend a lot in Thailand rich Chinese go UK or Paris.

    if I understand, only one entry visa will be given in Lao now . instead to cross the bridge after 90 days for second entry, we will have now to go to the embassy every 90 days to get a new tourist visa. multi entry visa not worth. normal 1 entry visa will take only one night in lao. the real pain is in your farangland, they will ask for a return ticket within 3 months.

    you dont need any ticjets to show only reervations,

  20. everybody scares, why?

    many things will be fine,

    every country has many Consulats, who are paid by work, more Visa´s more money,

    people who own Condos in Thailand is hard to refuse entry without any real reason,

    Goverment would have to pay Compensation.

    For all the TV members who have the opinion only they have the right to stay in Thailand because they are rich or over 50y

    I wish you that in your town all foreigners will move, all foreign restaurants and shops will be closed, the value of there houses and Condos will go down by 80% .And they can spend all their time with the Chinese tourists and the locals,

    Look like this is the life what all this perfect farangs looking for.

    FYI abusing a system means to get something from the system, and there is no foreigner who get anything from the Thai Goverment!

  21. Let's get serious.

    Everyone knows the attached sigh is only a notice authorized by the Thai government and posted by the Thai Immigration department.

    We all know the real experts and people with authority in these matters are the Thaivisa members.

    Isn't that who's advice we should follow?

    attachicon.gifpost-149547-0-54652900-1444473838_thumb.jpg

    who got banned for overstay only?

    my son was on a 8 month overstay last June, came back in July on a one way ticket, no problem at all

  22. Im sure they back down if you write down their names... they need money but no trubble

    for no risk offer to pay 100 above that you want their names... i think they will choose 100b

    Well you would be wrong they would not back down.

    The receipt already has the cops name on it. The cop did his job, all foreigners are suppose to have their passports on them at all times.

    You start asking the cop his name to write it down is just going to make more problems for you. This is not the west.

    again a lot of B***sh*t writen here, now law exist where is written that you must have your passport with you, in the law and this is valid everywhere in the world

    is written you must proof your identity. A thai DL is a legal prove of your Identity for Thais and for foreigners!

    a raid in a bar what happen only if closing time is far over is not done by IMO, it is army or normal police, nobody interested in your Visa status at all.

    This is a warning against the bar owner and the other bar owners and the customers, now in Chiang Mai it is about to set new prices for the bars and shops, what they have to pay to the police,

    everything is closed latest at 1 am, only 1 restaurant stays open until morning, no license for alcohol but selling small beer for 120/140 Baht and large beer for 180 Baht,

    this is the lucky bar.

    We dont know what the OP discussed with the police what happened during the raid, may be big argue with police, if police lost face they will take you

    to police station even no reason, Thai DL is a valied ID in Thailnd for police, banks, airlines, hotels, insurances aso

    everybody who write something different dont know anything
