The law says that you have to report your change of address withing 24 hours, even if you are out traveling around. (I asked about it at Changwattana once and was told that "Yeah, it's the law, but as long as you aren't away more than 14 days from that address, then you don't really need to report as you are still living on that address, and you are just traveling around.). That's TM 28 that you must report to immigration.
The law says that the house owner must report you living in/at their house/hotel/etc. That's TM 30 that the house owner must report to immigration.

The Law says the owner/housemaster or possessor(OCCUPANT) must make the report

Cuz it's the Thai that has to do the reporting.

 

 

Go to your local Immigration office and ask to be registered as a user. If they agree they will provide you with the link and a password

I was led to believe that you can report TM30 online as long as you sign up to do it by registering at your local immigration office? The same way as the hotels etc have to do.

Usually only available to businesses, not individuals.

NB The website is in Thai so unless you read and write Thai it is not much use! 

There is nothing to prevent those who cannot go without alcohol for 24hours buying their booze today.

You can use any form of official ID for domestic fights

i agree. charge a flat rate. very skittish about putting money in a third world bank as a foreigner.  not even if the interest rate was 10%. do your homework, too much of a gamble. rather play the lotto. who knows what the future may bring.  just saying.  not sure if the Banks would like it however.

You should check the huge list of failed American banks! (Wiki will help)

Call Samsung - 076 -219-871
Probably best to have a Thai speaker assist.

Old rule from long time ago that no longer exists. But you would have had to be around in 2006 - 2008 to know it.

Maybe but I responded to a post which claimed it was current.

I live in Phuket. I know each place might have each local rule.
But for your reference.
In this Feb., I have done two things at the same time,
     transfer stamp from old passport to new one
     and 1 year extension of retirement.

In addition with regular document of retirement 1 year,
I had to prepare,
(1) embassy letter about issuing new passport.
(2) application form to transfer stamp to new passport.

I received (1) form embassy of my home country in Thai with new passport.

About (2), I used this form.

This might be Phuket local form.
Person in other area should use this, maybe.

With these documents, I went into the room for retirement in Pluket immigration.
Two things have done at the same time, THB 1900. only.

After that, only with new passport, I could get re-entry permit.
Single THB 1000. only.

 

Those links do not work

I do believe it is official and stated 180 days in a calendar year. 

Where did get this false information?

Perhaps the title of this post was a bit dramatic, but at least they are taking control of your browsers, which is bad enough, and very amateurish, as someone pointed out.

 

I couldn't access one of the websites I run, and wasted a couple of hours in a state of near panic... Turned out that adding an "s" to the http in my bookmark fixed it, but I find this totally unforgivable. Perhaps one should sue them for mental anguish.

Rubbish - 3BB are briefly interrupting your connection to remind you that your payment is due/overdue - clicking to acknowledge the message restores the connection for 7 days - if the bill remains unpaid you are disconnected until you pay.  NO changes are made to your computer.

I had a problem with 3BBB about a week ago .   I use windows 10 and keep it up to date and check security regularly so I was a bit concerned when I found I could no longer access my security to scan/check etc !  The screen came up with " your internet security is managed by your ITT provider "  !!!!!

I asked 3bb about this and got the usual "don't know " 

Tried all sorts to get back to Windows Defender and ended up loading a new copy of windows 10  which got rid of the problem and back to normal .  Very scary when ITT provider can take charge of your computer !!! 

Had you bothered to use the Thia/Eng toggle on that 3BB page you would have seen the button which if clicked would have re-established your normal connection. 

3BB ARE NOT taking charge of your computer nor are they altering/disabling Defender.

The HR person is unwilling to make the application on my behalf as they are strapped for money already, and they won't want to spend THB 12k++ supposedly knowing the application will be rejected. 

It begins to sound as tho a new job is the answer.

The amount of times I have contacted the wildlife centre in Phuket when nothing appears to happened is uncountable.  

Nothing ever happens and I doubt that it ever will.

 

so bloomin' sad.

Wrong - Animal touts are now rarely seen, at one time they were commonplace.

No -Only one extension is permitted. 

The red asterisks indicate mandatory fields which cannot be left blank and the questions are about a VISA not an extension of stay which leaves just one 'option'!

I, too, have yet to see any Brexiteer call for the resignation of a Leave supporting MP who represents a Remain constituency; let alone accuse one of hypocrisy.

 

Will you now do so?

My only observation is that the Brexit "debate" has proven to be hugely divisive and has now deteriorated to what resembles a schoolyard squabble.

Is it the same fee as at the City Immigration Offices ?

The same fee + an admin charge if you do not have preprepared paperwork + a photo.

Why are you even asking the question on this forum if you and your son have it all sorted?  After all, he's been doing it for 14 years without a problem.  ????

 

Ask his step mother what she could do about it, and post back the result of that enquiry. ????

 

It's a whole new game now, and your step son needs to be aware of it, as it's only going to get worse as many of the guys who do not have 800k in the bank move to tourist visas.

We shall see but we have little time for naysayers or rumour mongers. BTW  I was challenging assumptions not asking questions and my sons SM outranks any IO at an entry point. As stated we will have NO problems.

Are you asking about the mandatory minimum wage requirement to qualify for getting a work permit?  I found this video/transcript to be useful:

 

https://www.legal.co.th/resources/corporate-and-tax-advisory/thailand-tax-law/mandatory-minimum-wages-foreigners-working-thailand/

 

There is no "mandatory minimum wage requirement" required for a W/P to be issued.
