SERGERAMOS

Happened on Friday they pulled at least 5 people out of the queue to get stamped out all falangs were all told they have to fly back to thailand and if tried to enter by land border they would be refused entry no exceptions

Any one thinking of doing a quick turn around run to nong khai had better be prepared to get denied coming back in from loas thai immigration are telling falangs they now have to fly from Vientiane to Bangkok if they want to return to thailand with no exceptions you are now forced to go to the airport and book an expensive flight to Bangkok and if you can manage to get a flight you are being pulled out at Bangkok for only staying 1 or 2 days in loas so just a heads up to anyone thinking of going

I have done this visa before I went down the money I have saved in the bank route to prove you can look after your wife with out her use of public resources at the time it was roughly 68 grand I'm not sure what it is now the cost of the visa was about 3 grand all in all but went up to 5 grand when I went to renew it after 2 years 8 months so I decided not to renew it and get her a tourist visa to come to the UKfor 6 months in the summer and I would visit her in thai for the winter if you have the resources to do this I would suggest go down the money in the bank rule it can also be combined with your salary so hence not to much money saved

I got the 60 day extention last year so I know it is possible but now because of the new 60 day exemption when I first arrived I can not get the thai spouse 60 day extension I would like to know of anyone who has tried to do this or am I the only one. as for your link this refers back to when you only got 30 days on arrival not 60 days as of now

I am in udon thani and they have told me that I can not do the 60 day marriage extension as I had the new 60 day exemption when I arrived I can only extend this by 30 days and must do a border run when this is up

Hi all I have come to Thailand on a visa exemption and was given 60 days I have been to immigration to extend by another 30 day can I extend this by another 60 days as I have a thai wife or was this only allowed before the new 60 day visa exemption

I am currently in udon Thani and I’m amazed how many falangs have dyed jet black hair. It’s pretty obvious how stupid some of these people look but probably think it makes them look younger I’ve also seen a few dyed ginger ones as well is this the norm for Thailand

I use udon Thani

Great info mate thanks for that

Thanks mate you sure it was a 30 day voa and not a 60 day tourist visa

Thanks mate saves me a trip

Hi all I arrived in Thailand and got a 30 day voa and plan to extend this at my local immigration then I plan to do a visa run and extend that as well my question is I am married to a Thai lady do I have to do a border run or can I get a visa from immigration based on marriage I am only staying for just under 4 months so this is just a visit

I would strongly make your case around the fact you have done many visas for your wife in the past and that you have abided by the rules many times and that your wife has never overstayed her visa in the past
