I have a 12 month non immigrant visa based on marriage. I'm planning a divorce will the visa become null and void once I get divorced or can I finish using that visa. If it becomes null and void will I have an issue getting a new visa that i qualify for at a embassy to stay here. I'm American I know I get visa exempt for 30 days. 

I didn't have a solution when I originally posted. 

I found an agent who will go get me a new one and then do my 90 day report.  Cost is 500 for tm6 and 500 for 90 day report.  Better than spending a day at immigration. 

I found a blank one can I just fill that out and put that number on the paper and mail it to them? 

I lost my departure card and need one for my 90 day report which desk do I get it at in jomtien immigration?

Thanks 

One of the hotels I was looking at got back to me and yes you can have guests after your first test result about 24 hours after arrival. First 24 hours you are quarantined

Can you have a vaccinated Thai guest stay with you during your two weeks in the sandbox.

I will be flying roundtrip from Bangkok to Washington DC then back to Bangkok in the middle of October on Emirates airlines. I will be stopping in Dubai for 6 days on the way back to see the city. I know I need a rtpcr test in Washington DC to go to Dubai then another before I leave Dubai for Bangkok. My question is where do I get my coe from the United States or Dubai? It's all on one ticket for the whole trip. 

After being approved for the Thai elite currently you can't get it affixed at the airport. They discontinued that currently due to covid. Only can get it affixed at chaeng immigration in Bangkok or at an embassy also a lot more restrictions with it currently like limits on the amount of people allowed in with people having elite longer allowed priority over new members. I was approved for it but until they can tell me they changed it back to normal not worth buying it over a one year stay on marriage for me. They will send you the list of restrictions when you are approved. Also note you need 1 year covid insurance for each time you decide to reenter Thailand on the Elite until they do away with that requirement.

what is the outlook on "Covid 19" extensions? Are they close to ending or could we just go on like this for years ? I am debating if its a waste of money to buy an elite visa right now.

From my acceptance email into elite. It said that they are limiting the amount of elites into the country. People who had elites longer get priority over new elites. It does mention they are trying to get the limit raised. I emailed them asking whether this is still occurring before I pay. I have not received a response in over a week now.  Once accepted your acceptance is good for 3 months then you need to reapply again. So until I find out they don't have limits anymore elite appears to be worthless. My marriage extension is up in July, my elite acceptance is good until beginning of August so for me it will depend on them removing the limits.  

In my opinion covid extension would be the better choice currently 

I was approved for the elite visa, however when reading the acceptance paperwork it stated on a limited number allowed entry. This to me sounds like old information. If they are only allowing limited numbers in of people paying 19k + dollars for the visa they shouldn't allow people to enter visa free. 

Another question hopefully someone can answer I was told I would need to cancel my current visa if on a visa first. I'm on a 1 year marriage stay, so do I need to go to jomtien immigration first and cancel it then apply for the 7 day extension then go up to chateewanga immigration at Bangkok for my affixation of the elite visa? 

Bangkok hospital Pattaya says thais only no foreigners. Even foreigners over 60 or with preexisting conditions. 

You can get the upgrade anytime during the 5 years. They told me that they recommend to do it around the 4 year mark.

Elite easy access is 5 years but 1 year entry per coming into Thailand.  If you want to stay over 1 year without leaving pay 1900 baht at immigration to get another year. You can extend the Elite access to the 20 year for 400,000 extra. The Elite easy access is the only one I know that can be upgraded. So you would have 5 years to extend it so pay 600,000 now then 400,000 within the 5 years to upgrade it. Unless they raise the prices. From my understanding if they raise prices you will need to pay more for the upgrade. 

I have a grade A fake, got authentication papers, warranty card, a box, bag, serial number on the watch in the appropriate place. Everything on the watch exactly right. Took it to an authorized dealer to get the band resized. They commented on how nice the watch is. Resized it for free under the warranty. 

I did pay 3000 baht for it but it's absolutely perfect. The place I bought it from also sold me a limited edition tag heuer watch that's absolutely perfect too.  No idea where they get them but the watches are perfect and has lasted over 18 months now without a blemish wearing them everyday. 

Thanks I will need to check that all out.

I am a 39 year old American married to a thai. I'm looking for good life insurance here in Thailand anyone have suggestions on companies?

binance doesn't deal with us citizens. attempting to get verified by bitkub.

I'm looking for a place where I can withdraw my bitcoin into my thai bank account. Anyone have any good places that they use. I'm from the United States, but on a marriage stay in Thailand. A few places I looked don't deal with Americans. 

Looking to sell only into Baht. I have usd bitcoin accounts that I buy with. 

Crypto.com and robinhood are the 2 places I use can also buy other stocks and cryptocurrency from them. Both are US based.

It's an extra cost for the passport card. Can get it with or without a passport same form. Cost is about 1000 baht for a renewal of the card, about double for first one.  they state takes 6 weeks but I got mine in 3. I don't think Thailand would accept it. They probably won't accept it in Thailand.

States on the page that The passport card was designed for the specific needs of northern and southern U.S. border communities with residents that cross the border frequently by land. The passport book is the only document approved for international air travel.

allows you to use the ready lanes to go quickly across the border with the rfid chip in it.

"Passport card"?

Passport card is a card for entry to the United States over land border and cruises from Mexico, Canada, Bermuda, and the Caribbean instead of using your passport.

Just got a new passport here in Thailand from the US embassy in Bangkok. Took 2 weeks from my sending my application to getting the new passport in the mail in Pattaya. Took another week for my new passport card.

Yamaha is 60,000 while the vespa is 99,000 for those colors in non abs. Abs for Yamaha I don't like the colors so it would be about 109,000 for the vespa in abs need to get green which looks nice still. Just not as nice as blue.
