Many retired foreigners (mostly oldsters with limited finances) take this view - essentially that they are nobly bolstering the rural economy with purchase of pick up trucks, motor cycles, houses for their partners, and of course the endless flow of their pensions and savings. They believe this is somehow a significant contribution to the Thai economy.It really isn't and certainly the Thai authorities do not regard it as such.

My pension is significantly more than the 50k bht income required for a smart visa.

"Phopthorn Kittikunkongprai, a teacher travelling with them, documented the ordeal on social media."

Must be more entertaining than the endless meals of somtam, phad krapow, guay teow, tom yung goong etc documented on Facebook by wifeys friends.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Japanese manufacturer's returning some production back to Japan as they're all in dire financial trouble. Mitsubishi is pulling out of the world's biggest car market, China, and Toyota has run down production there significantly.

"....when he accidentally recorded a group of Thai men drinking alcohol by the beach."

Well there's your problem.

"They managed to get a confession out of him..."

"Did you do it?" WHACK!

"Did you do it?" WHACK!

"Why did you do it?" WHACK!

"Why did you do it?" WHACK!

"Sign here please".

Very much like.

If it makes them happy and Spain lets them stay, que problema?

No problem at all except alot of them are now having to leave Spain due to the Brexit debacle.

Bit like the Brits on the Costa del Sol who live on fry ups, fish and chips, bangers and mash, steak and kidney pies and can't talk the lingo.

Thanks very much for the prompt replies.

I'll ask at my Immigration Office next time in town and see what they say and will post whatever they suggest here too.

OP, which immigration office.

Some allow you apply for extension 45 days prior to expiry.

 

If you prefer to do the extension after return (safest idea) you buy a reentry permit.

Can be obtained at immigration office or airport at departure. 

My local office is Kanchanaburi.

Hi, I am currently on an Extension of Stay based on marriage to a Thai which is due for renewal November 11th.

I have a trip back to the UK on October 20th returning to Thailand October 30th.

Is it correct that I will need a re-entry permit before flying back to the UK or is it possible to apply for the extension before I fly back to the UK?

Thanks for reading.

So they receive an sms to get instructions from a Line account to install further software. Nobody deserves to be scammed but anyone who falls for this is a little short of grey matter up top.

Owning watches is not prohibited. Owning media shares is.

The watches are complete legal unless someone can proof any corruption.

Of course I also believe that it is corruption....but getting an expensive watch is really a minor thing within the usual corruption in politics with 10% usually for every military purchase...

ITV last broadcast in 2007, it's a media company in absolutely nothing but name especially when it's license was taken away.
