But just don’t forget to post what will be the outcome of reporting at immigration with 30 days overstay then we can advice others next time.

Perhaps they’re starting to realise the reality that farangs aren’t as rich as the Thais were convinced to be,  it may give us a break but I doubt it, considering that in some places prices for us westerners are different.

This while Thais appear much richer in showing off their goods ?

Farangs May not be rich at pocket, but rich at heart. ❤️??

Perhaps the reason is most Thai goods owned by banks (loans) , but farangs use cash mostly.

I should inform you that there are many “cheap Charlie” living in this country as retired and helping the economy even though they don’t spend much. 

Prhaps they won’t let you get in next time since you don’t look one. 

As soon as they meet a better case (not a man, just a better opportunity) you are out of picture. “Cash is king” have you heard that from Thai girls ? You are not here and you are useless, nothing but just a promise. If you are not here, your wallet should be here then you will not be forgotten nor blocked. 

Good luck with next. 

My gf leaving me too !! I’m so happy. ??

Once it has happened in 80’s during Iran-Iraq war. It will be really stupid if Iran regim tries again. They should know that the result will be just about the same as 1st time. 

Wine is luxery. Either farang or Thai upper class. 

I stoped drinking wine and ended this tax story.

They then led the Iranian tourist to City Hall to issue him with a receipt for the fine. An official complained that he had to pay from his own pocket to get the receipt issued.

USA does not sell ams to Iran and hasn't since 1979. Russia and China have had the market to themselves since 2005. On the other hand, Iran has been selling/providing  military arms to conflict zone participants in Sudan, Syria, Lebanon(Hizbollah) and Yemen despite international sanctions to prevent those sales.

I guess you did not read it right !!

US , UK & Russians selling fighter jets and weapons to “Arabs” recently. The market is hot and never been as much. 

You are knowledgeable and absolutely right :

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran–Contra_affair

Basicly US and EU have no interest in change of current regime in Iran as long as those clerics follow US policy in the Middle East. 

The cleric leader can remain in power as long as he plays the game right.  ??

Think of “consequences” before pulling the trigger. ?

My Honda bike dealer do that. where they service my scooter. 

And I pick up the sticker next day. 

Tax and insurance.

Wonder what prompts some people to announce their departure to an "audience" of people, 99% of whom really have no idea who they are.

Perhaps they feel lonely or have no one to talk to. ?

I have already reported the new address.  So I won't need to produce rental etc papers as proof?  Just passport and fee?  I'll assume that's what you said - unless you correct me.

 

Thanks.

In Bangkok 90 day report had to be done (after moving to new address) before applying for proof of address.

You need to check with your local IO.

If you wait until your 90 day report you absolutely will be finned, 1600 baht.

 

I would pop by and lodge a TM 30 as soon as you arrive at your new residence in Chiang Mai (not a hotel that is the hotel responsibility). Supposedly there is a 7 day grace period for "24 hr" reporting but I have never confirmed this myself. 

 

Once you get into the system in Promenada you only have to update your TM30 within 24hrs of arriving back in Chiang Mai, after a trip outside the Kingdom (confirmed).

 

My apartment management will do the TM-30.

Do I have to do TM-28 as well by myself at Immigration Office ?

I had to do TM-28 with 90 day report every time I moved to a new addresse in Bangkok.

Thanks

I understand that, but my question is "when" ?

Bangkok:

TM-28 is required when doing 90 day report after moving to new address, but Chiang Mai ?

By Chiang Mai posts I figured that CM IO enforcing own rules.

I will move to Chiang Mai soon.

Do I have to do "change of address" on arrival ?

Or can I wait until 90 day report and do change of address both at the same time (what I usually did in Bangkok, Chaeng Wattana) ?

What will the immigration office need from me for the letter  (paperwork, money)?

If you have already reported your new address, B200 fee for proof of address (the fee could be slightly different depends on the Imm Off).

Passport copies. 

Proof of address from immigration office will be needed + your passport that shows non-o extension. 

You have already had that !!

Ask 1st, then eat. ??

Visitors are welcome in rainy season. 

No problem, we will rescue you.

I’m speechless.

Just keep it quiet even if it costs children’s life ?

The “image” must be saved. What kind of image it is or image of what it is, I am not sure.

Does not matter if it is paid off or not !! “Respect” the stupid rule. 

That stupid rule is there because “majority of owners” want it to be there.
