fluent in latin? really? really? what are you the pope?

Is it possible to find out what is required to be a digital nomad....do you have to provide some kind of proof as to a business or revenues or can you just say i am a digital nomad and apply for the digital nomad visa??

yep and one of these days some agents are gonna piss off the wrong persons and a simple check of bank accounts showing that the 800 k baht went in and out the same day to get the visa....then the hammer comes down,visa cancelled, deportation or some charge against farang ....agent will be taught that more brown envelopes must be distributed to proper people. Agent learns lesson , farang gets the shaft.

Lots of loud coughing and hacking and complaining that you have a fever and dont feel well at all will usually get rid of most irritating people.

Maybe time to crawl back down the rabbit hole?

No i would not hire a hooker if i were married and my beautiful wife was home with our new baby. Some people actually have morals and don't break laws to try and get elected POTUS.

I highly doubt an appeal (grounds?) will overturn it......and yes the other cases are generally more serious crimes with even more evidence and republicans set to testify. If it were not for all the whining and delays and total BS by t and his minions the trials would take place before the election and trump who of course has never ever done a wrong thing in his pampered life would be permitted to demonstrate once and for all how innocent he truly is and how everyone is always picking on him...especially all those republicans who will be called to testify against him. The jury apparently does not agree with your idea that it was a very poor joke and they were there for every minute of the evidence presentation whereas you were not. Trump understands very clearly if he does not win in 2024 that he is going to eventually face the music in all of the trials with a very high chance that he will be wearing a nice orange suit to go with his orange hair. If only they would allow him to testify...oh that's right he was told repeatedly by the judge that he can testify and confirmed to the judge that he understood that right...before he stood before the cult and claimed the judge would not let him testify...yet another total BS lie that the cult swallows hook line and sinker

Farcial? The jury who reviewed documents, text messages, emails, video and audio tapes and listened to the first hand testimony of republican after republican and then voted unanimously to convict donnie apparently think he is guily as charged. Too bad the various other judges in 4 more criminal indictments for even more serious felonies have allowed trump to make a mockery of the judicial system with frivoluous motions and delays. If a few of these judges had a set of gonads we would have the even more serious criminal trials before the election and donnie would lkely be wearing an orange suit by halloween.

So is TDS the maga morons who have lost touch with reality, joined the cult, and worship the the whinny one...I agree many of them are indeed deranged.

So a mountain of emails, texts,docs, audio and video tapes as well as testimony by almost all Republicans and found guilty on all charges by a UNANIMOUS jury within less than two days. Let the spin and whining crank up by the MAGA morons about how it is all so unfair and the trial was all rigged. Tired of Whining? Vote Biden.

When will charges be filed over the illegal coup planners that ousted taksin while he was away years ago? Probably about the same time that the gang that has allowed mr red bull to thumb his nose at the thai judicial system for years will be charged. Answer: Never happen.

14 pages of questions confusion in a few days on one website... it would appear that just maybe the details should be worked out and posted at the same time as the big announcement? Guess none of the tourism officials thought of that. Any legit company would fire people for a rollout that was done without providing the details. Basic question? Define digital nomad/freelancer what exactly does it mean and what proof , if any, is required to qualify?

As a former teacher "up there" i can assure you that most of the kids will not speak much if any english....they may well be able to read and write some but speaking and understanding spoken english is not all that common as many of the thai english teachers teach reading and writing but very little in way of speaking...in fact a lot of the thai teachers barely speak english themselves. The first thing you should do is buy a good english thai phrase book and spend a LOT of time with it to get the basics down. There are many many farangs who have lived in thailand for decades that dont know more than a few words....some don't care and many make a feeble attempt then give up. Get a small notebook and try and write down words/phrases as you learn them and go over the list a LOT and yes by all means try it out on some thais but also be aware that many will sort ofact like they understand you and many will understand a few very basic words but most may well just stare at you and have no clue what you are trying to say. It would also be a very good idea to try and find a good english speaking thai person and take some classes. Best of luck. It is not easy and most give up.....but if if if you really try and give it time it will ultimately be worth your effort to at least know the basics like greetings, directions, numbers, polite words, how to phrase questions, etc....do not however expect it to be quick or easy in spite of all the absurd promises of speak thai in 3 days type BS.

thank you.....good for OP to try and learn some Thai but better to get a good book etc and practice a bit before you try to demonstrate your knowledge and end up looking silly...Thai is not an easy language and you have a long long long way to go.

so exactly what is required to claim you are a digital nomad/freelancer? Do you actually somehow have to prove that you earn $$ from some digital nomad biz? What proof is required? Or can you just say you are pay the fee, do the 500 k baht in a bank and that's it? Devil is in the details of which there seem to be few.

but not 21....substantial difference... ..i once lived in a VT6 48 sqm studio which was decent size and layout...i also lived in a 110 sm VT unit which was good sized unit....choices abound.

which view talay has 21 sm rooms?....all the ones i have seen the smallest rooms are 48 sqmeters?

If you get arrested in Thailand I would guesss that it gets entered into a computer system which could then be cross checked by immigration when requesting a visa or at the arrival place? How about get rid of a lot of the lawless idiots that seem unable to live in Thailand without getting arrested? Either deport and blacklisted so no return for few years or if mild offense one more stike and out you go. My gut is the overwhelming number of ex pats and tourists come to thailand and behave themselves, have a good time, spend $$ and leave without ever getting into trouble with the law in any serious manner. Unfortunatley a few bad apples seems to create all sorts of rules etc for those who behave themselves. I am all in favor of getting rid of the bad apples through deportation/blacklisting or some punishment more meaningful that a photo op,a wai and 500 baht fine. With easing of visa restrictions I suspect that the number of bad apples will increase so maybe a good time to plan for how to handle it?

Cohen of course was going to be a problem as a witness....but as was pointed out the prosecution did not find him at the witness store.....it appeared to me that the corrabating evidence presented in docs and other testimony fit very well with cohens testimony....the fact that cohen was a lying sleaseball for ten years fits very well with the type of lying sleazeballs who trump would prefer to have working for him to deal with various issues....if cohen were beyond reproach trump would have fired him very quickly. Hope Hicks and David Pecker and yes Costello helped make cohen a much more believable witness. We shall see.

yes as i said yesterday that is correct. ..still does not explain why almost every single republican on the stand is generally more harmful than helpful to the trump defense...could it be that they are telling the truth? And how did trumps supposed defense star witness costello work out for the defense.....guess all those emails that supported cohen version of their interaction must have slipped his mind.

you forgot... we the REPUBLICAN witnesses who testified as to what they saw and heard dear leader do...truly amazing how the dems somehow convinced these trumpers to get on stand and make up lies aboout donnie and what happened....we all know donnie has never done anything wrong in his entire life....he told us all that about a zillion times ....you need to get some new lines about your dem witch hunt as the testimony that will ultimately sink trump is mostly coming for life long repubs who voted for trump and many worked for him....

..if you were planning to arrive in the next month or two and did not want to wait til last minute you go online and get and pay for tourist visa....then all of a sudden they announce new no visa goes into effect in a matter of days...i looked on the thai embasy tourist visa website today and so far not a word of warning that it was all going to change....no refunds so out of luck for those who just got e tourist visas....thanks thai tourism for the heads up....or not

u just wasted your time and money from what i can tell as 60 days + 30 day extension is escentially same thing without having to do the online stuff and pay the online fee...the 30 day extension is the same 1900 thb at immigration... .not clear if you can leave after total of 90 days to neighbor country and come immediately back to thailand and get 60 more days plus 30 day extension....how many times is this permitted? obviously some restrictions on how many times in calendar year or you could leave every 90 days over and over for years?

So exactly how do you qualify as a digital nomad? Do you have to show proof of the revenue from the biz...what contitutes such proof? if i say i have a digital biz what would be the min revenues to qualify? if my revenues are $100 a year is that ok? or a website or some sort of biz license or contract or what /? Or can I just announce i am a digital nomad pay the 10 k fee and put 500 k in bank and all set? Do you have to pay thai taxes on whatever you claim is revenue from your digital biz? Lots of questions and gray areas that need to be clearly addressed it seems.

So you just wasted a trip to KL costing $$ time hassle....not fun. So do u apply for a tourist visa or wait and see what exactly the new 60 day no visa rules may be? A question that a lot of people traveling soon would have. Just looked all over the immigration site etc and cannot find one word about newly proposed changes ...if anyone can find please do post details.
