  1. disagree most are young fit and have tats and have yet to see a 6' russian lady
  2. US letter: Dear Immigration official of the Royal Thai Government Please be informed that as of April 10, 2023, the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok and the Consulate General in Chiang Mai no longer issue passport linkage letters. For purposes of transferring visas for cancelled U.S. passports to new U.S. passports, please refer to the passports themselves.
  3. BS: living here, hardly notice them around at all unless shopping in Villa or central we wont miss ya
  4. i dont see the Russians controlling anything as far as tourists around, Mostly Indians and middle easterners ( they love to sit on the horses on the beach while looking at their phones while a thai guy leads them) i'd say than u have zero business sense already to many, prices have dropped alot and the new government will reverse the policy in place
  5. think ur way off gf works at a pre school, ( 2-6) here in kamala. over 70% of the kids are from Russia>Pre coivd it was around 20% I have spoken to a few of the parent's and every one disagrees with the war, many are working online, ALL DONT want to fight in the war> these are guys in their upper 20's, early 30's They are renting long term, many have ed visas and are not on 60 day tourist visas!! The Russians i see on kamala beach ( how do i know they are Russian well, they speak Russian) most seem fairly young with young kids
  6. WHY: do you think Canada did wrong by allowing Americans, fleeing the draft in the 60's, to set up their homes there? I have nothing against Russians fleeing Russia> Just dont want them trying to change Thailand for the rest of us
  7. cool: one thing i am considering to avoid the hassle is when the 90 day is due , head up to Ranong and exit kills two stones at one time gets all needed info transferred and no 90 day report till next time ????
  8. that sucks: when you arrive in Penang, go to the train station an book a trip to Hat yai and enter there> worth checking out be nice if oyu could post a pic of what they stamped in ur passport when they denied you> this Might cause troubles down the line FYI: make sure u have the 20,000 baht on hand an a hotel booked in Hat Ya
  9. NO; i "moved" back phuket and 2 previous 90 day reports are done in Phuket They refused to transfer stamps to new passport for friend of mine last week, same thing as me, extension issued in Trang BUT filed new tm 30 for Phuket WRONG, old passport is invalid the date the new one is issued< extensions are valid till they expire OK: understood, So i can go out of Thailand and stamps will be transferred when i leave OR return? BUT nobody has answered my question> WILL phuket ( where i am registered as living) do a 90 day report ON a old /invalid passport, since new one is issued without Transferring stamps? OR will they say NOPE, must first transfer stamps Has no one run into this?
  10. Background my year RE extension was issued in Trang Phuket Will NOT transfer stamps to new US passport, but told to get it done in Trang My 90 day report is due? Do i need transfer the stamp, extension first or will phuket do the 90 day report on old passport?
  11. 30 day visa exempt? MAX 2 visa exempt entries /land borders/year you need pay for a Cambodian visa, $30 and most land borders, the Cambodian immigration will charge you 3-500 baht for same day return>
  12. she is going to need a long term extension an unless she is over 50 , ur stuck paying an agent for "help"
  13. what dif does it make when u move? Immigration has no idea when you moved, just file it when you want to an make sure your new lease starts the day before on paper

  17. DO NOT Need insurance and as a fact ur thai insurance is not valid in Cambodia an very difficult to get insurance in Cambodia ( its not even required for a Cambodian car or bike ???? ) i've driven dozen of times between 2005 and 2018 with my Thai car, had it over there for 10 months in 2008/09 when i lived/worked in PP Voa $30, visa online $36 but does save a page in ur passport DONT drive at night take off ur front plate so they cant tell ur driving a thai car ( u will be stopped less) Tint on front windows is illegal my Thai license was accepted 50% kf the times i was stopped ( about 6 times total) even thou any ASEAN license is valid fines are usually between $5-20 driving in Cambodia is very stressful so dont do long ( over 6 hour) trips enjoy!!!
  18. 14 days free entry 30 day VOA ( $30) Online cost $36 but saves a page ( entry stamp vs full page visa sticker) 30 day extension via an agent $40-60 In PP Cina agent on street 130
  19. Photography in Cambodia is a stunning visual journey through Cambodian culture, history, art, struggle, and modernization. Within these pages, readers will find a fresh perspective on Cambodia. From the early days of French colonialism through the struggle for independence, and emergence into an uneasy peace in the 21st century. https://www.magicalcambodia.com/the-wonder-found-in-photography-in-cambodia-1866-to-present-by-nickolas-coffill/
  20. I very very seldom need a vpn watch tv with an android box/Kodi an get all my news, tv, movies, sports for free If i do need it ( maybe an hour/2 weeks, cause i want some one to think i am NOT in thailand) i use the free version of Tunnel bear
  21. the riel is not a traded currency outside the country so take $$$ You can change Baht easily No Cambodian restaurants in Pattaya? I'm shocked, as it some of the worst food in SE asia No places will turn down $$$, but might give ya ur change in Riel: not true at all atm's will give ya $20's and even $10's ( just withdraw $290) an most establishments will give you $10, 20, 50's in change + riel $1, 2 & 5's are hard to come by atms fees range from $5 -8 /transaction thai baht can be used in Koh Kong, Palin an Poi Pet I just returned back to Phuket after 16 months living in Kep> Happy to be back here ????
  22. if something goes wrong ( i seriously doubt it as he already has the 800,000 in bank) can get the 30 day extension if needed.
  23. easiest, least amount of hassles, is fly one way into thailand and get a free 30 day visa exempt> Purchase a onward ticket from https://onwardflights.com/ for under $10 Apply for the non O visa, ( as he already has the $$ in the bank) in his 1st week in Thailand, After he has a lease agreement> zero reason to use an agent as he has the cash in the bank and thats why most use an agent the rest is a walk in the park I did this end of Nov.
