  1. Anyway even with an online appointment, you have to wait a lot. It's not really efficient
  2. Showing up at immigration for 15 minutes just to get a pre-approved stamp in the passport is still better than waiting there for hours
  3. I just learned that an electronic visa extension system has been around for a year in Bangkok and now is being implemented in other tourist provinces. Has anyone had an experience using it? How convenient is it?
  4. A great portion of Russia's GDP comes from oil and gas. Thailand doesn't have that. But if you compare salaries in Thailand and Russia, you will see that they are pretty much the same.
  5. Anyway even if you use trains, you have to walk a lot. It's nowhere near as convenient as driving a scooter in a small city with no traffic.
  6. I am Russian living in Thailand. You can ask me some questions
  7. Pattaya is cheapest by far and has better infrastructure for expats.
  8. I mean some areas that you may think are Bangkok are actually Samut Prakan.
  9. You will be surprised, but a huge part of Bangkok is actually Samut Prakan.
  10. Let him just open renthub and see for himself
  11. I am from Russia too, but I stay in areas where there are no Russians, guess why
  12. Lots of rooms at 5000 baht all around Pattaya. Nirun is complete crap that's not worth even this price
  13. There are better places at this price
  14. Maybe he is from there, vacationing in Thailand. They get a lot of money from Putin
  15. Where did you find better hospitals in neighboring countries? From what I saw, neighboring countries like Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam are so much worse and more expensive.
  16. I wonder why they revoked his passport. It's so communist.
  17. There is a "hassle-free entry" service (not to be confused with an official airport fast track), which costs around 5000 baht. Many Russians who stay in Thailand full time use it.
  18. Tell this to Russians living in Thailand full time on border runs. But of course they know how to grease the wheel. There is even a Russian company that is in touch with Immigration at all major Thai airports. If you know you can get grilled, you contact this company in advance and they arrange a hassle free entry for you.
  19. Or show them dozens of bar girl contacts on your Line
  20. At no cost? Imagine being stuck at some Cambodian border in the middle of nowhere. Getting to a nearby border will cost like a flight ticket
  21. They can do the same at land borders too.
