Thank you, l had not considered Nakhon Phantom, it's not too much further in KM than Nong Khai.

Thank you Tod for your feedback. I had retirement visas from marriage in the past. From May 2023 I was working overseas until May 2025. During the 2 years I returned every 6 months for about 3 weeks each time. It's the unpredictability when leaving that is my worry now on what the officer informs. Thank you again.

Thank you DrJack, 2 nights is the minimum or the wiser choice? Thank you again.

Hi all, Hopefully someone can tell me if this is possible. I arrived in Bangkok Thailand May 11 permitted until 9 July (British Passport) and am now near Sawang Deandin in the North East. We were planning to apply for a 60 day extension based upon marriage in Sakhon Nakhon but I forgot my original Wedding Certificate in Bangkok - stupid mistake. Question: Can l just leave via Nong Khai to Vientiane side and come back on the same day or do l need to stay 1 night? Many thanks.

One injector was leaking.

Hi Moderator, this topic is now sorted out, you can close this thread. Thank you.

Hi, where in Udon Thani is good for Brit food? I've just got back from Haiti so a little tired of rice / spaghetti. Thank you.

Hello all, Mazda bt50 3.2 is very subtly lagging when on the highway. I can feel it and the rev counter sort of dips for a second. Had the fuel, oil and air filters changed last year. Any idea to ask the garage to check also when l take it into them. I only feel it on the highway and not around town. Thank you.

I recall Thai artesian foods use to stock some, l got the pink salt from them before. Koh Samui I think but they do shipping.

Yes, they provided the wheels.

Hi All, I used Carpenter luggage repair (in Google maps) in Bangkok. Picked up my case, repaired and dropped it back at the house within 1 day. Paid 1600B in total for 4 wheels. Excellent work. My wife used the Line App to talk to them.

Hello Mod, bought a battery already. You can close this thread. Thank you.

Hello all, I'm working overseas and looked for a user manual for a Mazda 3.2 liter BT-50 Pro 4WD 2012 without luck. Would anyone be kind enough to verify if a 63amp battery is an adequate replacement size and recommend any brands. Many thanks, James.

Yes, next time I return l will do the TM30 asap just to be on the safe side.

Just an update: I went to IT Laski yesterday on the off chance without a TM30. Was told TM30 was not necessary, nor were my wife's ID card and house book. Got 30 days extension stamp for 1900B. Not an unpleasant experience at all. Thank you for all the replies I received here.

Sorry for all the questions about the TM30. The address was approved online, l filled in the name, passport and phone numbers and saved. I just checked for approval and is showing an excel form to fill, but no way to type in it when l open it. Any ideas please?

Thank you all, I just applied online.... However, is the first registration page for me or my wife? I thought it was her name but now doubting myself. Thanks again.

Thanks, l was up there for 3 weeks and now in BKK. As l said l just purely forgot about the TM30

Thank you for your reply.

Thank you DrJack. So if they send me away tomorrow for not having a TM30, do we apply online today or can pay a fine tomorrow?

Thank you very much. I have a British passport and arrived via air. I will go to IT Laski mall, but do we do the TM30 before or in the immigration office there? Does my wife need to join me? Thank you again.

Hi all, I came back to Thailand 12th July for vacation/ visit family. I forgot to inform my wife to do a TM30. My visa expires 10th August and l want to extend for another 10 days. Will there be a problem asking for extension in Chaeng Wattana tomorrow? Does my wife need to go with me? Many thanks for feedback.

Changed the fuel filter yesterday and seen an improvement. Thank you for your suggestion.

I cannot recall the last time for the fuel filter, the air filter was changed along with the engine brake and oil 10k km ago. I'll have them check the fuel filter. Thank you.

Over the last couple of days driving l have noticed the truck sort of very subltey lagging when doing a constant speed 80 or 00 kmh of around on a highway. Also a bit sluggish on acceleration. The truck hasn't been used much over the last 6 months, starts and idles fine with no fluid on the driveway. Any thoughts on the possible issues before going to the garage. I was thinking dirty injections. Many thanks.
