    Patong - The Wake

    Why open a bar and have to deal with staff, closing times, police etc etc, when you can open a weed shop, employ 2 people and reap the rewards? Anyway , bet 50% are out if business within 4 months FYI: still Plenty of bars to drink in ????
  6. yep, the ME 1 year O looks nice, BUT although you dont need visit immigration every 90 days, ( or waste 10 minutes online from home) you need LEAVE the country which is both time consuming and costly for most BUT also gives ya a reason to get off your ass an go somewhere ????
  7. I appreciate the immigration officials at Ranong, who will NOT let you leave, if they wont let you back in>
  8. why not? they are welcome here same reason everyone comes here sea, good food, variety of accommodations as to, "...it takes 2 to tango" what a crock of .... Are you saying Ukraine should not defend their country? seems its only other Farangs that complain
  9. I have no problems with Russians fleeing an unjust war placed upon them by a maniac Americans did the same in the late 60's we went to Canada or Mexico
  10. for the ME Non O outside thailand its 800,000 and being over 50 OR 65,000/month and being over 50 but no idea what kind of proof, ( other than an embassy issued letter which the US does not give out) is accepted (Please note that the applicant must be at least 50 years of age and no longer employed.) Financial evidence of at least 800,000 Thai Baht or 65,000 Thai Baht per month in income or retirement funds (or equivalent in any currency) https://phnompenh.thaiembassy.org/en/publicservice/non-immigrant-o-visa-retirement?page=5d73b14415e39c46f40076a1&menu=5d73b14415e39c46f40076a2
  11. How to Notification The foreigner makes the notification in person, or authorizes another person to make the notification (The notification must be made within 15 days before or after 7 days the period of 90 days expires) The foreigner makes the notification by registered mail (Thailand Post only and send the mail before the renewal date 15 days to Immigration Office in local area where the foreigner resides) The foreigner makes the notification via internet by terms and conditions of service. Check the website : www.immigration.go.th => Online Services Documents Required (Notification in person) Passport departure card (TM.6) Example Previous notifications of staying over 90 days (If the applicant has been notified before) Example Completely filled in the notification form (TM.47) and signed by the applicant (not another person) Example Notification by registered mail (Thailand Post only) Prepare the following documents Photocopy of passport pages with following pages – front page showing name / surname / Passport No., etc. – current visa – last entry stamp of immigration – last extension of visa Photocopy (front-back) of departure card TM.6 Example Previous notifications of staying over 90 days (If the applicant has been notified before and no travel outside the country).

    Patong - The Wake

    Loved this: Back in the 80's, early 90's that was me< Once i moved over to Kamala in '96 , I think i 've been out at night in Patong 2-3 times and than ONLY cause a visitor wanted to see it>
  13. first visited in 2006, last in 2018> YES, its worth going, its amazing but you need at least 3 days and suggest you visit the Museum in town before you head out Go at 5 am for the sunrise at Angkor wat and explore till 11 or so, head back to town and return at 3 -4pm for a wander around till the sunset. Well worth it. Grab the Book "Ancient Angkor" from one of the kids selling them head now before the chinese invade again an ruin the experience https://phuket.zenfolio.com/p579763618 if you go around 5pm u can buy ur ticket an it wont start till the next day, so you get a sunset for free While in SR head out to the Tonle sap lake and visit Kampong Phluk https://phuket.zenfolio.com/p552344657 A day spent wander around town and the market is nice as well From 2008 onwards always drove around in my thai plated car and saved admission price as they used to only require a ticket if you entered a complex , not if you stayed on the road ( sunrise, sunsets) ticket price might sound expensive but its a must see Side note: moved over to Kep in 2021 and built a house there, Must admit the construction 10 centuries ago was much better ???? khmers nowadays are terrible craftsmen
  14. thats with 800,000 in the bank , ( thai bank or any bank) IF so this is a good way to get out of being with an agent< example; Using an agent cause not having the baht in the bank to get ur 1 year extension. Yet during the year you get the 800,000. Obviously, you cant get ur 2nd extension on ur own, ( cause you did not have the 800,000/400,000) for the time required during the year BUT you could travel to Laos when ur extension expires and get a New Non O 1 year, Multiple with ur thai bank book am i correct?
  15. YES the Andaman pier to the casino is not> can stay up to 14 days on a border pass ( $10) in Kwathaung but cant travel more than 20 kms inland boat across is 50 baht/seat each way or 500 baht for the boat return.
  16. "ALSO note that you would not be able to do your next 1-year extension at your current Imm Office, when having used a 'fixer' Visa Agent. This because you would not be able to provide evidence that you kept the required funds (800K/400K) on your personal Thai bank-account for the duration of the 1-year extension, which was the condition under which you received your Permit to stay. The ONLY way to get rid of the fixer Visa Agent service, is to exit Thailand without a Re-Entry Permit, so that your current Permit to stay is being voided. " UNLESS u used an agent >>> that uses that immigration? ???? who would be more than happy to receive a little something extra in their pay packet
  17. to get an evisa dont ya need show a ticket from ur country to thailand plus If oyu do use a throwaway ticket make sure you use a vpn and set it to ur country ip address Go to Cina Travel street 130 near riverside in PP< will take 3-5 business' days, cost ya $60 What problem did you have? why wouldn't you have time, ur there now so you need wait
  18. Whose going to pay back the billions of Bhat spent? bet Anutin is worried
  19. WHY? cause they know you paid an agent and they got no tea money LOL you used Thai visa centre, right? Just file new TM 30 for where ever you live currently Copy of lease, copy of landlords id card and House book ( signed) copies of passport front page an visa> Buy a re entry permit at any immigration office OR at the airport when you depart How could you NOT know?, its stamped right on the visa or extension where you got it ????
  20. to get a 5 year license u need be on a long term extension>" all he can get on a tourist visa is a 2 year license
  21. the day ur officially divorced ur extension is null and void> you can easily switch passports if you fly, cant crossing overland you can even return on a vis exempt entry , even easier if you already have a bank account PS: in Phnom Penh if you dont want hassle with the embassy i recommend Cina travel on street 130 near riverside, cost $60 vs $40 and still takes 3-5 working days thou
  22. I believe that ONLY your 1st 90 day report after obtaining your 1st extension needs be done in person
  23. Currently ; ZERO departure tax on land borders> 700 baht departure tax for EVERYONE included in air tickets MUCH ado about nothing: Latest is 1,000 baht for THAI's and Permanent residents ONLY>Flying 500 baht on land borders> This would severely affect OUTBOUND thai tourism!! and wont ever pass >
