Thank you!

Hello All Is the tourist visa extension also for 45 days? (Came in on a 30 (45) day waiver. Cheers

Ahhhh thank you.

Hello All Any big fireworks displays happening in Phuket for National Day tomorrow? Can't find anything of note online.

Thanks all!

Bucketing down here again. Relentless.

Heavy rain all morning in Rawai. Has stopped now. More forecast for the rest of today. Starting to flood here in some areas.

Many thanks.

We entered on 30 day visa exemption and are now on a 30 day extension.

thailand-property.com I used them for my rental property and also found them very good for sales.

Advice from here has been very helpful so am hoping you will bear with me a little longer with my questions. We're here on a tourist visa extension of 30 days so we have until the end of October. I'm Irish and my partner is from the Philippines. My plan is to go on to a retirement visa in June when I'm fifty. (Madam is 35) We had not expected to be here so soon, but work allowed me to do my last year consulting online so we came to Phuket to check it out as an option for retiring and are very happy here. I have a rental agreement on a villa for a year as our plan is to use Phuket as a base and look for a property here but also to check out properties in Koh Samui, Chiang Mai and maybe Hua Hin. My question is: are Immigration likely to give us much hassle if we are coming back regularly between now and June on tourist visas. I think the longest we would be out of Thailand would be a month between revisits. There is no issue with funds availability and our reasons for being here are genuine in the sense that we are exploring with a view to a purchase. Any suggestions / advice on situation would be appreciated. Thank you.

I'm not sure how that would work. Perhaps one of the more experienced contributors would know.

No. Just local address on the TM7.

We dropped into Patong Immigration this morning with: TM7 Passport copy. Visa copy. Passport photo. 1900 THB. Picked up passport with 30 day extension an hour later.

Thank you for your help. Much appreciated. Wayne

Been done to death somewhere, I'm sure but... My partner and I are here on tourist visas. (We arrived at the airport and had passports stamped by immigration. No applications etc. 30 days) I'm from Ireland and my partner is from the Philippines. Can we get a 30 day extension at the Immigration place in Patong? Or do we have to leave and fly in again? Thank you all.
