He has been in contact with a law firm based in Thailand, with 22 years experience, who claims to be experts in these cases, who also claims that a previous overstay ban will be on his criminal record, consequently he will not be granted a longer stay visa.
They charge a huge amount (150k baht) to settle this with immigration...
I told him that a visa agent most likely would settle this for him.
They'd need to pay me ( 150k bath) a week to want to live in this place permanently. Obviously he's got sod all at home

Left my Honda Air Blade for over 3 years with just a cheap cover during Covid. Few kicks up and down new battery few revs on the electric start and she fired up no problem. Wind in the tyres and away I go, even ran on the old fuel. Those Honda engines run for ever. 🤣

How is he a sponger?
It isn't even possible to sponge in Thailand, lol.
He's sponging of the E.U. namely Spain.

I really hope something can be done, but if not then I guess it is what it is. I will need to look up all the Laos rules I guess, since I haven't been there in a while, if visa is needed or not.
No need to look up Laos rules, very simple Visa on arrival, fill in one simple form, hand over fee Dollars or Baht with passport. Receive Visa in passport and away you go with 30 day aloud to stay. How it should be done, instead of dealing with the morons this side of the Mekong

About time the airlines got uniform on this onward flight issue. Some require it others don't, and trying to get information on the issue is a nightmare as per usual no one answers the phone. And if by a miracle someone does talk to you, they haven't got a clue what you're talking about 😞

It used to be free in some countries but maybe non has that now?
When you transfer health insurance it cover same as natives get in national hospitals. Privates do not need to honor but many do.
Spain and Portugal have very good policies.

Everything was dirty cheap, unless you wanted to keep eating Western food and have a Western lifestyle.Eating a full "Pad Grapao lae Kai daew" in a roadside restaurant costed 20 Baht (0.60 Euro).But as I grew older and my Health started to go downhill, life in Thailand became less enjoyable.
Also, the cost of living became very expensive for me.
I needed to go frequently to a doctor visit at the hospital and I was feed a lot of medication.Daily tasks became a burden to me.What made me decide to leave Thailand?
1. In 2022, I got the message of my doctor at the hospital that my Kidney function was degradating very fast and that I would soon need to start to do a Kidney Dialysis. The cost of this would be a very big junk of my income.2. The level of corruption at Immigration and other departments started to become a burden. At the age of 70, I am not keen to run around for every "requirement on the spot" of the immigration officers. I thought that thai people had more egard for the elderly.
3. The oncoming changes and requirements for foreigners who were staying more than 180 days in Thailand was a "NO" for me. New taxation rules, taxation on my foreign income and a message of my bank in Belgium warning me that they had send the documents about my "Wealth" that were asked by Thailand was the "Final Straw" for me.
4. I was residing in Thailand on a Retirement Visa, type "O". This type of Visa did not require to show a Health Insurance. But Immigration was changing the rules and there were remours that they would require a Health Insurance on this type of Visa as well. Which insurance company would be willing to write a health Insurance for a 70 year old men with a medical history of a Stroke, a Heart failure, a Pacemaker implant, recent surgery for an AAA, and Kidney failure?
Yes, paying a very high Insurance price which at the end would mean nothing as every little thing could be connected to existing diseases.
I went back to Europe.I chosed Spain because it is my country of birth, the nice weather and benefit the (almost) free healthcare as an EU citizen, Besides healthcare, I have other benefits in Spain by being a 65+ citizen.
I will reside here 179 days in a year, to avoid being taxed and do trips to other countries as long a I can.
As an EU citizen, I am entitled to the EU health insurance which repatriate me in case of an accident.
If I have an accident or need hosptal care, but can not be transported, the EU healthcare will sponsor my hospital bill.
It is maybe not the most perfect choice, but for the moment it is the best option.Another sponger going home, Thailand is full of them

Irrespective of whether he could/couldn't help, once he 'decided to flee to a relative's house in Ang Thong.' a very large book is going to land on him from a very large height.
How could you run away when those poor kids are still trapped inside the bus? Beggars belief.
Because they are the most cowardly men on the planet

16 extensions and all by the book, pay tax in the UK on my 3 small pensions, so they want to tax me again, unfortunately I'm not in the position to leave so I will have to do what they decide to do in the future, doubt I would be able to afford 2 tax bills.
Just done my new extension so I'm okay untill 2025.
I don't have any bank accounts in the UK only Thailand.
Basically you have burnt your bridges, it was your decision

Expats are a silent minority in Thailand that is totally ignored by Thai government except when it comes to taking money from us.. we are discriminated against in pricing, enjoy no benefits as citizens but yet we directly n loyally support the entire Thai economy with our consistent spendings from Bangkok to Issan.
By shrinking Expat spendings, the whole Thai economy will now have to depend on the whimsical, seasonal and unpredictable tourism where all other countries will be competing with them. This tax will be the government ‘robbing’ from the very same support from which Thai economy gets its support and the ultimate real losers will be the Thai economy n the Thai common folks.
The immediate glee n greed for this tax will bring long term repercussions spread to the entire Thai economy.
At the end of the day, it’s just another transfer of wealth n robbing from the spendings to be earned by the Thai common folks to the government.
Let's be honest most so called expats have burnt their bridges and are now stuck in Thailand without a pot to p#ss in.
