Archaic maybe but slow? takes me 2 hours for a Marriage visa/extension, and 1hr for retirement. 1,900 baht a year.

Takes me 20 more years to get retirement visa.

Avoid Penang. The queues are horrendous, and they only accept a limited number of applications each day.

 

If you can get an appointment at Vientiane, that would be my choice. Otherwise, Savannakhet should be OK (with all the correct paperwork) but plan to apply Tuesday or Wednesday. On Monday and Thursday there tend to be long queues as that is the day most visa run groups turn up.

I went to Penang at April, arrived around 9.30AM, not too many people waiting, spent maybe around 1hour there.

There is an alternative to the minimum $80k USD.  Something like, minimum $40k USD plus securities. Check LTR web site for exact requirements.

Please go read the requirements yourself. These LTR are very hard to get. you can find them here https://ltr.boi.go.th/#

So buy a PE visa if you are so wealthy. 

Actually not huge money. 

Oh yeah not big deal, this Srikcir guy just made the LRT visa sound so easy to get.

Get a 10-year Long Term Resident visa for 50,000 baht, renew visa another 10 years for 50,000 baht. Annual (vs 90-day) notifications of residence.

So 20 years for 100,000 baht. Granted no golf discounts and limo rides but do get airport Fast Track and other benefits such as multiple re-entries and duty-free entry. Also can include children under visa.

How I can get this? I never went to school or had work, just lucky a lot of money from lottery winning. I'm also under 30 years old.

My landlord does not care about TM30 either. I solve that by going to nearby hostel and rent dorm bed for one night. They keep the record on the file and most of them print or at least email you the screenshot of tm30 submission

You will not be questioned when you enter the country unless you have gotten back to back visa exempt entries.

I got questioned last week for visa exemption entry. No prior exemptions. no instant return (1 week in hcmc). Just 2x covid stamp + 1x TR60.

Many offices have a 30 day under consideration period for covid 19 extensions.

Alright Thanks. I was mistaken then

Hi,

I just got 28d under consideration stamp instead of typical(?) 14 days one.

Why is that?

You mention Laksi as an option so you must had entered visa exempt.

Most likely you will need to provide a TM30 for your application so bit depends on where you are currently staying. 

What previous extensions have you obtained. 

Edit: just noticed your topic heading. 

So this is your first covid extension.

Did you already obtain the standard 30 day extension to your visa exempt entry.

You should have no problem obtaining a covid extension.

 

Hi,

I'm already obtained first extension and TM30 is done. I'm gonna also get onward flight ticket.

I'm just bit worried and need to plan a head. I'm mostly thinking, if I go day before current expiration and they deny, do they still give 7 day or 14 day under consideration stamp

Hi,

Sorry if this has been answered already on other topics. I tried hard to find, but cannot.

- Does everybody get 14 day under consideration stamp automatically (or they deny you without 14d stamp)?

-If they don't give 14 day stamp, does they still give 7 day stamp to leave?

-Jomtien or Laksi. Which one is better choice?

edit: already obtained first extension
