That's quite a twist. Did he actually study in Korat, or did he obtain that "ED stamp" using an agent without studying?

Agent visa but he was up in Korat in person att Uni and immi for the stamp . . look legit but hm. . . yes denied entry. . .can come back with TR.

Update. . my mate got deported , not blacklisted but IO told him his ED stamp from Immi office in Korat was fake. . . . hmm

It depends on what the DTA says, the EU has a separate DTA to the US, you will need to check yours, in all probability the answer will be the same..

My country have DTA with Thailand so its should be zero tax then. . .

My mate is going back to TH . . he study University have 1yr stamp not 90d... he got a re-entry permit .

Is there any issues with ED at the moment at Suvarnabhumi ?

Correct. There is no place on the current tax forms to show exempt income. It is possible there may be a place in the future, if/when the forms are redesigned so we'll need to keep our eyes open.

So if have disability pension from EU .. its same same no taxable ?.

im planing to charter a pickup driving me to the Cambodia boarder from TH with some household goods , then have a reciving pickup at Cambodia side , you guys think issue with the importing moving goods and they maybe want import tax etc ?.

As far as I know a tourist visa should be fine since its granted by an embassy. I have however witnessed the IOs telling my friend to "go back to his home country and get a visa", after back to back stays and TR:s from Vietnam. I dont know where you are entering from but if you have a TR from a embassy from your home country and have spent some time outside of Thailand it should be ok.

 

Just saw you are gonna enter on your second entry. Afaik it should be fine.

I have a METV TR from my homecountry! so i guess no worries. .my first entry was flawless even with the 2yr old some pages back ED stamp. . . been home 14month between old ED and my new METV TR. . 

AXA is good had them before but had an accident with them so they dont accept me again.
I did end up with CHUBB , 1m policy and 100k medical . . , 4250b/yr . . so im happy with it.
Also WW coverage! 

What is ongoing status with the IOs at bkk airports when arriving with e-visas TR s/m and also have old ED stamps in passports ! . .

My first entry was OK , but soon up for my second entry of my METV TR , but feeling a bit shaky. . . i got all documents but still have that old ED stamp in the passport to haunt me.

Landborder more safe to entry maybe? i really dont want any hassle with the IOs.

Just the visa and passport (and, if paranoid, 20,000 baht cash that you can theoretically be asked to show by immigration when you arrive, though they never ask any more in practice).

Landboarder maybe.... but at airport they asking for onward flight if coming on TouristVisa. . .

My issue now is my 90d soon ends and i need re-entry , i have multientry TR so thats good... but i have an old ED stamp in passport and what i hear is that issue when IO checks passport.. 

HI. . just been declined 2 PA policys because i dont have a WP . . . .need recommendations for policies that not require WP . . . . . thanks!.

I have METV will leave thai and re-enter soon..... do i need outward-ticket in a 90d period or not?.

Or just my VISA papers and passport?.

How is the building mantained and so on . . . How hungry are the ACs in this building....  same noisy aircons as Riviera Jomtien?.

Thanks for bringing that to people's attention. As far as I know no reason not to mention The Bangkok Post but yes you cannot link to it.

Interestingly in their article they mention that the agreement, or one of them, still has to be ratified by Parliament.......

 

And this particular article is almost completely referencing companies and not individuals until the last para that only talks about US individuals.

 

So lot of potential details missing........

okey thats good news!

Was traveling to Thailand 12 years on NON O retirement extension while working Onshore and Offshore, never have had any problem with IO. Best way to go.

Same here. . .  19yrs mostly as a tourist and not a singel time had an issue with an IO , also did over 20 visa runs.

Any luck with the METV or non-o? My embassy also does not have METV listed anymore on their website. I am wondering if they are now issued only by some specific embassies.

I can find the METV option under Touristvisa 60d . . . .
