Guessing you don't use any of the roads, street lights, immigration offices etc? In fact, use of the immigration offices is really just for foreigners, so do you think that your yearly extension is a benefit?

no they are not

Over 53,000 baht for a microwave? Nah, the extra 500 watts is not worth an extra 50,000 baht. https://wafuu.com/en-th/products/panasonic-microwave-oven-ne-1802-dlvb901?variant=44644218011811&currency=THB&utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=Thai&utm_content=Panasonic Microwave Oven NE-1802 DLVB901 ※200V&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwq_G1BhCSARIsACc7Nxo80wqEK8sKDXxyyNLYi7UkfN2Y8hNhn7YyMpdW33uNJhju_Ioqyz4aAtCuEALw_wcB

He was talking about interaction with immigration, not the amount of paperwork. I did not mention paperwork, only you did.

You got sick of having to prove you were eligible for the type of extension you were applying for? Both retirement and marriage extensions require almost exactly the same amount of interaction with immigration, so you have avoided what?

Where did you get these multiple entry Non-B visas?

Flying to Sakon Nakhon would be easier for Mukdahan Flying to Nakhon Phanom would be easy for the border crossing there.

No it does not, it shows that you changed the reason for your extension, nothing to do with a VISA.

Some amphurs will allow the child to attest when they are younger than 7, might be worth popping along with your son and see what they say.

First question, were you married to the mother? If not, have you been to family court for sole custody? If the answer to the above is "no", then you are not "legally" the child's father. (strange as that might seem)

Where is the Thai visa question?

The immigration commission is an advisory board, not a regulatory one, it does not set laws. @kwilco

Never was such a rule, never ever ever!

Strange I changed my bank payment details with them, (UK bank to a Thai bank), they emailed me the form, I completed it and emailed it back. Easy peasy

Totally wrong! Embassies and consulates come under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, totally separate from immigration.

"Lan Na is the name of a conglomerate of Thai city-states that covered roughly the area of modern north Thailand between the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries. " I seriously doubt you have been here that long 😉

That was written by a fairly new poster (he too did not have the link to the Royal Gazette), and was posted on a thread about the new DTV, (though the poster mentioned the Elite visa too). No-one apart from that poster has mentioned a change in the rules for other types of visa. Here is the link you could not find; https://aseannow.com/topic/1328520-5-year-multiple-entry-dtv-visa-destination-thailand-from-2024-xx-xx/page/21/

No, your salary was what you were happy to accept.

70k is not "nearly" 100k! Also it says "as much as", so many of his peers are obviously earning less than 70k. Poor writing and reporting.

CW I believe include with your FIRST extension as a 90 day report. But the real easy way to tell is to check the 90 day report slip that is stapled into your passport.

The islands are full of those people! Plus all the illegally working 'digital nomads' , as in "I post to youtube and tiktok".

"the TM30 laws and the requirement to report a foreigner's stay have been in place since 1979" "Facebook is a social networking service originally launched as TheFacebook on February 4, 2004"

Please explain how that 'obvious' solution works. Renter 1; July 1 -July 7 (contract for July 1 -31) Renter 2; July 10 - July 17 (contract July 10- August 10) This renter books on the 3rd July, how can you take the booking as you are already committed to the end of July. Unless of course you are trying to circumvent the law. Overlapping contracts, the only thing obvious about your plan is its absolute stupidity as a way to get around the law. So easy to see through it is painful.

The new rules are far too new to know what will happen further down the line. No one could have abused them already.

About 2.5 years with covid and border bounces, yeh, you should be worried
