The neighbors are out to get you, Crossy. They are reporting the sparks they see flying out of your garage, and fear you are building an apparatus for lightning bolts.

better to stay far away from this noisy thai neighbors. The best is to build a house in a farm without stress. they talk like parrots

So there is my friend that is thinking to divorce from his thai wife. They both live in thailand and both agree to divorce. Do they only have to sign the divorce at the amphur and nothing else?

you only lose money money money with this thais. Always the same story, so sad!

What are you actually asking from us?

 

There's a load of building experience from all over the country here, but if we don't know what you want to know we cannot really help.

 

Just wanted to know if 2 million and 300,000 bath can be a good price for a house building

Do you have drawings / sketches of what you want to do?

 

Again, location is important, building costs vary vastly across the country.

 

How big is the land you want to fill, depth of fill needed? Again, costs vary vastly.

 

I'm going to assume that "American style" does not include it being of timber (termite food) construction.

my wife has all the papers lol. She is doing all this stuff

What size are you thinking of, style, level of finish needed, (important) location??

 

 

our house has 4 bedrooms, 2 floor. We already have a land for start to build, from my wife's dad. Need to put soy for start to build, around 200,000 bath. It looks like american style, my wife preferred like that

Has anyone paid around 2million and 300,000 bath for a house building in thailand?

Well done for staying here to volunteer. 

 

What volunteering did you do here?

Probably any type of volunteer 

I don't think you can stay here long time if you are not retired or you don't want to get married. I would never do border runs, it's stressful and a waste of money

Volunteer visas for not really doing volunteer? Many do like that and pay a lot of money to visas agency

I think the most important thing here is whats next? covid visa let you stay in thailand 2.5 yrs. whats your plans now? pray for another covid pandemic or WW3? martial arts courses? start your whole academic carrier with another ED visa? thai food cooking classes? 

 

well you better start thinking because soon or later your 'trying to stay in thailand' options will eventually end at some point.

 

good luck

Exactly my friend. Farangs like that only hope for another pandemic or ww3 to stay in this country. It's so sad ????

Why did you stay here for the last 2.5 years? 

Because of COVID extensions but now the party is finally over

Do you have the required 800,000 in the bank and willing to leave it there all the time?
if so no need for an agent, an just pay 1,900/year for the extension AND
pay 1,000 baht for single re entry or 3,800 for multiple

IF no 800,000, than its a min of 16,000 baht/year, PLUS the re entry>

you do the math

immigration stress you with new requirements and papers every year. that why many are using agents now

Yes, and that is the reason I will not be doing an extension based on marriage next month when due but change to a Non-Imm O based on retirement and pay an agent to do all the paper work. Every year there is always another document Immigration want and I'm tired of playing the the 'game'.

 

I'm happy to pay an agent and never have to deal with Immigration myself in the future.

 

No more Immigration stress. 

 

 

in fact, immigration want you to use an agent to pay more. It's a money scheme believe me

always a new rules, it only give you lot of stress

They just marry for a visa but after lose money for Thai wife. Thai story are popular 

as always. this is thailand

I just renewed it on SCB, they only wanted to see my marriage extension on my passport. It tooks a few seconds to start the process, very easy

be careful, some visa agencies like to steal falang's passports

it's finally ended

I have 5 years driver's license and that time I had to also show my extension based upon marriage
