So the arrival forms are now back
AlbionBob replied to grain's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
A friend of mine, on a world cruise, alighted at Laem Chabang a few days ago for a two-day stopover. Didn’t have to go through any immigration, didn’t have to fill in any forms or show passport or anything - just walked off the boat, caught a bus and was in Pattaya half an hour later ! Seems strange given all the rigmarole the rest of us have to go through ! -
I submitted six month's back statements and copies of pension incomes.

The 90 day eVisa from London is £60. I got one in November. You have to submit a load of supporting documentation as well (see website).

Transferring money from the UK
AlbionBob replied to bannork's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I use XE, as mentioned by a previous contributor, to send money to my wife's account and sometimes my own. Excellent rate, easy process and transfer goes through extremely quickly. Just have to indicate "Living expenses" or "Family Support" no hassle. Highly recommended. Having said that, I have never tried Wise, so following all the above recommendations I will give them a try in future ! -

As an aside, regarding the 20K you are supposed to bring in, would showing a Thai Bank Savings Account Book showing at least 20K be sufficient ? Or do you actually have to carry 20K in cash ? Thanks in anticipation.
