CANSIAM

If there's health insurance involved they will want to have peak at your passport

I believe they do in Phuket. Last month I did my retirement extension, the IO had a paper in front of him, he said you need to update your address I have you staying at Bangkok Hospital Siriroj Phuket, and yes I was there in March for Hernia repair surgery......ridiculous its quite a TM30 address system they are trying their best to run here.......

"Uncertified by any Global Navy" sounds like another Stockton Rush Titan venture......get a refund from your Chinese friends and get some surface ships.........

I don't think their computers are synced at all. I returned to Phuket from abroad went to the drive thru a few days later asked to update my address I've returned to the same residence here. I did not see a date stamp on my TM30 slip but was given another 90 day report slip. He also mentioned my extension was expiring in 6 weeks which I was aware of. At extension time I had to update address again, the IO had a paper in front of him and he said he's got me staying at Siriroj Hospital Phuket, where I was in fact in March for Hernia surgery lol. I think you have to just roll with the different hiccups that occur every year, hopefully they are not too painful.......

I assume the re entry permit service ( at a slightly higher cost ) at the same time as the extension was the fact that I had a 4pm passport pickup time the next day, a little rushed to go over to room 101 get the re entry started at 4:15 or so, closing time is 4:30. Anyway I skipped the next day altogether and went the following day morning and got the passport and re entry for the normal price. Yes the same day bank account transaction was the first for me, letter and 12 month statement was done 18-19 hours prior to going there.

The guy is a clown............close the thread.......

Extension number 4 today in Phuket, did my bank letter and 12 month bank statement yesterday afternoon with matching bank account balance. Copies bankbook, PP, previous extensions, google map of resident coordinance etc. Unlike last year, the paperwork pre check fella said I needed to do a bank transaction today then update and get a copy of the last bankbook page transaction again, So I did a 200 baht DTAC top up on my SCB app. Anyway 40 minutes later all that done. Also I had to update my address again at the drive thru, 7 days ago I went through there and updated it after returning from abroad. The IO said that on his paper work I was staying at Bangkok Hospital Siriroj where- yes that's where I had Hernia surgery in March for god sakes....Are their Computor systems not working together ????? what a cluster f....... the IO ( salesman ) also offered a re entry permit service done at the same time as retirement extension but costing more than the other office, single entry 1500, multiple 4500 for convenience he says lol, told him I'm not going anywhere, and the pick up time now for Passport is tomorrow at 4pm not 1 pm as in the previous years. Anyway I'll get the passport Thursday morning 8:30am......ain't fighting 4pm traffic. Is it fair statement to say that the folks abiding by the 800k in their Thai banks every year as per Thai Law and paying 1,900 baht for a 1 year extension of stay are not particularly liked.........see you next year cheers !!!!!!

The article seems to be all backassward, the folks on Non O retirement or marriage, O/X, LTR, Elite etc all have invested financially so to speak to stay here long term. Have a look at all ED visas that were purchased in the last 3 years, free exempt 60-90 day stay entries for the entire planet, easy exit and reentry for those without visas to continue staying..... here you may find the criminal activity illegal work etc. ( the brown bag issue does not cease which is a huge problem ). good luck now trying to open a bank account without a Non O..........

"Theft during night time" commit your thievery prior to 18:30, jail time and fines reduced I assume.....

The Bombardments in Kiev and elsewhere recently blatantly shows DT's weakness with Putin, yep I think Congress has had enough and will handle it with deeds instead of words.......

Have a look at UOB, up to 10 different currency accounts - 'FCD' accounts..

And the money in bank method is ridiculously high for the non-married anyway........

Time to increase the pressure DT, Putin thrives on weakness...............

4 foreigners, "crackdown" again wrong choice of words.........

A Qatari 747 where Hamas and Hezbollah Leaders have sat and dined in the past, drawing up attack plans against a staunch U.S. ally Israel........impressive Mr DT..😉
