With a power of attorney you could authorize somebody to do about everything for you.

With proof you cannot go to immigration yourself somebody could submit the extension application for you.

above You have Best reply.

Limited power of attorney would be the best. Just use for immigration purpose and do not need any agent 

Wish you good luck and All the best

Friend wanted to sell some gold bars, shop accepted 10 bars. They transferred money directly to her bank account. She had more to sell. Shop owners (family friends) told her that she will have to wait 10 days to receive transfer. She accepted the terms. The owners gave her certificate.

I bought a bunch in oct 2018 when gold went down to 18,250 baht, today I can sell it for 26,000 per baht minus 100 per bar, nice return on the investment today, but I think it will go higher.

If you sell they charge 200 per bar

I  hope Not. Thai are too Chines friendly. 

Flipping real estate in Thailand is not the same as in the west. Thai gov is always changing rules, taxes and is not farang friendly. If you find good LOCATION and you like the price buy it. Just think who will buy your property in 10 years time. 

Looks like Thai police responded very quickly to Thais reporting "bad farang". Thai just tolerate foreigners that stay quiet, spend money and go back home. 

Police never came to my house to investigate thefts, and collect evidence. Oh, forget about complaining about garbage burning by Thais.   Because of Thai neighbours I sold house in Nam Phrae, Hang Dong , Chiang Mai.

Are You prepared for thai thieves?

Friend left at 0430hrs and returned from hospital at 0930hrs.

His big cooking gas tank and regulator was gone. Yes, he reported the theft and all he got was loud laughter. His new WiFi cameras will arrive this week. 

Fines are prorated, scooter 100฿/year and car 20%/year. If previews owner cancelled registration, there will be no fines. Pay for new plates and get new green or blue book. Just ask your friendly Land Transport officer.
