1. When your application is approved and the fee is paid.. The PE visas 5 years validity will start from the date the visa sticker is put in your passport and your first 1 year entry is stamped in your passport.

2. I am sure they will accept a Transferwise transfer. But you should ensure it goes into the correct account. As far as I know they have different accounts for domestic and international transfers. Normally a TransferWise transfer is done as a domestic transfer.

thanks, I will check about domestic and international accounts and ask them about Transferwise,

about membership start date, so it starts after payment is done, what is time limit to do payment after membership is approved?

can I ask about Elite, maybe someone knows:

1. When starts membership? I also plan to do it, but wanted to use tourist visa extension also. So when to apply best to be in time?

2. About 500k payment. Do they accept payment by Transferwise?

50k baht and fixed, I think it's better for these women who worry about it to visit doctor and not listen to some lawyer who most likely will just  rip of cash, I think

OK, I decided to go for another SETV tomorrow as it's known route already and deal with Elite later, thanks everyone

Your best bet would be another SETV. You should be able to get another from Vientiane if you only have one so far.

 

If you enter under VOA you will only get 15 days and can't extend. If you try to extend they will give you 7 days to leave the country, which will cost 1,900 baht..

thanks, but maybe these 15 days would be sufficient, need to check today with Elite, and think

Hello,

wanted to ask what is best to do in my situation, my extension of SETV from Vientiane ends tomorrow, before this year I also used SETV with extension but from Sweden, I am planning to apply for Elite visa but there is no time to do it on time, I would need about month to do it comfortably, maybe less. So what is the best easy way here - do another run to Laos for one more SETV or maybe I can do run to Cambodia or Myanmar  which is closer to Bangkok and get visa on boarder for 15 days and then extend it if needed. Nationality - Latvia. 

foreigners should learn to respect other people pissing peacefully, why the heck Frenchman started to abuse Thai man? doing piss is human rights and physiology 

He is 100% russian, I know the language, too many russians long staying in Thailand, bringing their low life culture, officials should do something about it

why not extend existing visa by 30 days at immigration? 

everything with words - progressive , democratic, for people , I find disgusting, words I like conservative, libertarian, constitutional ...

I am here at Asoke, all good, I like it here :)

if we're reporting crime to help police here we go... there's a lot of illegal prostitution going on in pattaya and nana/ patpong areas of bangkok, as well as market and street sellers selling fake designer goods. do i get a reward for helping the police with their enquiries?

 these you mentioned is not real crimes as there is not real victims, if focuse on these Thailand can become like western "democracies" which is not good in my opinion

thanks for suggestions, but I cannot resist the offer at Asoke,  I can get it about 30% cheaper of advertised price and market price, and its considered luxury project, so, as always I choose luxury vs being closer to people, although here in Thailand I like the most simple areas, markets, cats, dogs, all the simple life ... maybe some time later, at this moment I am a bit tired of moving and searching and just want to settle down a bit as deal is already ready to sign contract

ha ha ha, but seems I will need to move to this Asoke condo anyway, as overnight owner of Rama 9 condo changed his mind and wants to sale it only,  this Asoke condo I get with big discount from market price, so deal is good and condo itself is near perfect, that's destiny, so advise me how to survive in Asoke now :)) 

yeah, I am back from a walk from both areas and already made a decision to stay here at Rama 9, what disturbs me about Asoke is tourists and all scam industry not just foreigners, I don't mind some quality long term expats, but short term drunks, backpackers and other indians

Dear Members,

I'm struggling to decide in which condo to stay, maybe more experienced expats could advice.

2 options, both  new projects: 1 at Rama 9 area near Central Plaza, this is where I stay now for short time, but have option to extend long time with good price, this is very convenient location, all shopping, eating and Gym here, not so crowded by pedestrians, but car traffic here is, a lot of new construction around, positive that its not crowded to get around, I like Central Plaza, and here is not so many Farangs :)) as I like more Thai environment ;

2nd is Asoke near Terminal 21 , more expensive but a lot more luxury, all entertainment close and I'm not sure is it good for long term living, apartment itself is more new and premium, but location and many tourists, crowded, I can get this condo below market price, but anyways its 10k more expensive than first one

I am trying to decide which is better for me, long term 1-2 years....

As for IQ: even foolish people have the right to choose which fool should be their leader (I am not saying all Thais are fools here, by any means)!

hmm, no thanks, I think foolish people should have limited rights like children who are not yet adults, that"s the biggest problem of democracy, foolish people voting for fools

My opinion is that Thailand is not ready for democracy, as also most countries, people are to naive, maybe only several countries on this planet is ready and can function democratic, also option I see would be allow allow to vote only people who have IQ above 100 .

hmm, I'm searching for new condo now, which area is the cleanest? 

what ideology and political views these red shirts represent? if some nonsense just about gaining power and democracy then shut it down for good. To me libertarian and anarcho-capitalism ideas are more close, and anyone fighting for just gaining power with populistic ideas is just disgusting 

I think all is better as is in Thailand and I hope no western style democracy there ever will be. Democracy is mob rule, corrupt fake lying illusion. Best system is, I think, is free market economy based on constitution and law not mob rule, it can be monarchy or constitutional republic. For what exactly these democrats are fighting? just for power.

Hello,

I am moving to Thailand soon. Wanted to ask maybe someone knows, do they sell there Vitamin C 1000mg Effervescent tablets ?
