Your country permits "system exhaust under 95db". RTP is seizing bikes and exhaust systems modified to exceed 96db. So, if in your country police seize bikes exceeding 95db will you attribute that to corruption? I'm finding it difficult to understand your post.

Oh and also it's a matter for the courts to decide the fait of the bike and the rider. Not the uneducated police who still remain a private operation. They need to be disbanded and rebuilt.

police do not care about reading exhaust levels. They are a cowboy unit. l been on bikes all my life and are involved with racing big bikes here. 

They boom boom bullshit and can not stories. They do not know the law themselves the basic cop. If you don't understand go purchase a big bike and fit a Yoshimura system in BKK.

Report back 

lf they had any brains they would ban bus tours. Make Chinese book there own accomadtion and return the country to Thai people. To effectively earn a income again. Buses are destroying Thailand. But this government is not competent to do it.

l laughed after the first sentence

Fake news election  gimmick. Keep destroying Thailand with those buses.

I think valid insurance, by both the rental operators and the renters themselves, should also be mandatory, and checked for.

Most long stayers I know don't need a reminder, they make a note of the next renewal when it is advised at immigration. How about sending reminders to the people you are finding that are years past the expiry date ?

How about making the online 90 day report operational lol. Thailand 4.0 ?

the 'smarts' are already here in the form of expats; who , for the most part, cannot work as the thais are afraid, rightly so, that they are quite a bit better than the local alternatives

Thank you

Use your child to earn and when that fails and he dies. Get paid by the JUNTA. 

Go to court on drugs charges as a farang with no evidence and get the death penalty. What a legal system

There has always been significant inconsistency between Immigration districts, individual Immigration offices within the same district, and oft times between individual immigration officers within the same Immigration office.  Consistency has never been a hallmark of Thai Immigration.  If you've been here a decade you have no doubt experienced it first hand - (if not, can I have your passport number as I'd like to buy some lottery tickets).  So based on past experiences, I would not expect to see an 'official policy' on immigration letters uniformly applied across all offices.  That's just an unfortunate fact of life of living here.  You learn to roll with the punches. 

They all knos little and all operate as individual private offices. It's a hit and miss operation

Tgarrett, I understand your concerns, but please I urge you not get all stressed about this.

 

Thai Immigration is just like any other bureaucracy, throughout the world (and I've dealt with a lot of them!) that operates a 'top down' information system. It should be no surprise to anyone that those officers working at the 'coal face' are not yet aware of the ramifications of the changes that are taking place right now.

 

As of last night, there is one reasonably reliable report of a successful extension using income without having an income letter (in Mukdahan) and no reports of anyone being denied an extension.

 

You're one of the lucky ones. You have whole year yet before your next extension is due. I am quite sure that by then everything will have been sorted out.

 

 

 

Relax and enjoy your retirement.

This seems to be a catch 22 scenario where by the Thai Immigration have initiated with the request to the relevant embassies to verify the source of income.

Where up until know the protocol was that each embassy had their own methods to provide income letters.

 

So in summary, Thai immigration haven't changed their policy regarding income letters, it's just that the additional proof of source requirement laid out to the embassies has caused the

current problem by them rejecting to issue them. 

Correct they would need to really work checking which is terrible lol. Every person has different circumstances Some twits some smart. Embassy took high ground. But it's a case by case basis. For me anyway.

Keep punching

My immigration office is co operating with my certified documents next year. So it seems it actually is the Embassy in the end. But with some push from Thai officials. Due to scammers

I don't believe the "injuries suffered from an unnatural position" - this is a common ploy used by social insurance fraudsters claiming invalidity because of back aches. As of today, there is no medical way to disprove that claim.

 

But what I do believe is that Mr.  - errrmm - "Prosser" didn't receive his fair share of space he booked with his seat, he should be compensated for that.

Up to You as they say

Perhaps if the seized motorcycles were now hauled of to the nearest crushing plant and baled up others may understand the consequences.  A 200 baht fine and a wai and off you go is not a sufficient deterrent!

When all this going to stop 

Thailand has going to be a very noisy country with bike's racing up and down on roads day and night 

Police should be on every road and soi to stop this and not just sitting talking about it and do nothing 

And it seems as it only Bkk there stop them 

Pattaya police  do absolutely nothing about it 

And meny Thai and farangs have complained about the noise 

 

ln my country it is not ilegal to fit a full system exhaust under 95db. Yes road racing is a problem with the kids.

Perhaps a track to suit them. But taking peoples bikes because they have a aftermarket exhaust is not in line with the law. it's merely corruption by the RTP. Who l may add remain unreformed to this day
