If you travelled to lets say Laos or Cambodia as 2 examples, would you need to be there at least 21 days prior to returning to Thailand?

Question for the experts; I arrived on a NON-O Multiple entry visa (Based on my children) in November 2019 - valid until November 2020. Due to Covid I did not leave the country until September 2020 (but got the Covid-extensions when needed) I got a Re-entry permit when leaving for Europe - and used that in beginning of October 2020 to get back through the Phuket Sandbox. Since returning - I have had 2 Covid extensions - and my Permission to stay expire early March. If I understand correctly - the Immigration would not be giving me a new Covid-extension since I originally arrived in October on a re-entry permit based on my NON-O. If this is the case, can I then apply for a 60 days extension based on my children? If not I guess the "only" option is to have 400K in the bank on the day of application and apply for a 1-year extension based of being the father of a Thai citizen? Any input is appreciated. TIA.

It depends a bit on what actual contract you had with them. I guess you had a written binding price quote and signed deal. As you probably knows the cost of sea freight has gone through the roof! - We used to pay around THB100.000 pre-Covid for a 40 FCL, now we have paid up to THB600.000 (this is China to Europe). Quite insane.... But I guess you booked it near departure.

I am planning a 7+7 Sandbox stay if its possible to get from Phuket to Railey Beach, but well... difficult to find any information. I understand it needs to be by boat "direct" from Phuket to Railey. Appreciate any input ????

Does the 400k need to be seasoned when applying based on being a parent of a Thai?

Then start drinking ????

Strange how you can walk into a supermarket in Germany buying these test for 20-25 baht when buying 5 - but I guess buying 8 million does not give you any discount ????

Never forget that this country is run by crooks ????
