Suradit69... You might be very correct. I haven`t tried it myself.. Only like 7 days before a couple of times.. 

Will check though next time im up at immi.

As I understand you can extend the 60 days you are given same day as you go through immigration at airport... In other words.. Whenever you want. This is in Phuket though. And if it still is this way I can not attest too. 

I dont get the problem.. Can you transfer to a friends account in Thailand and he can take it out on his visa or mastercard here?.. If you dont have any of course you might need western union and you do not need to do it through a friend. Call Santander and they will transfer to nearest western union for you. At least most banks in scandinavia do that as a service...

Why should one need a credit card with all the costs on it when a debit card normally holds a master deposit card in it like all SCB cards. You can use it everywhere and online.

I see no reason why. An online reciept from Lazada is better than one from powerbuy anyway...

Maybe I misunderstood the OP.. , but the way he wrote it triggers some important info. There IS a new medical form. make sure you get the right one.. The new was in effect 1. march this year (2018). Its more of a self declearance and the doctor just testify with a stamp to it. You fill it out yourself at the clinic. It cost everything from 50-200 baht.

Nonsense... They have been showering and some makeup and a uniform.. That fools you... When they cuddle up with their teddy bear during soap opera times they do not look the same... Same as beer glasses.

I told someone in here a year ago about this, but nobody believed me... Probably the hard way is the way... Well.. or just pay the fine and go to chiang mai or as far as you can.. Nobody really cares. You can tell police that the law is not in effect anymore, but they will not believe you until they are handed a white sign on their next new vehicle....

First question: Are you sure your debit card is authorized (by your bank) for online purchases? They are normally not and you have to talk with your bank (for me it was the SCB call center) about opening them for online business

 

Second, normally banks here will give you a credit card when you deposit twice the limit of the card in a secured account. Secured meaning that you will not get the bank book for that account, the bank will keep it. I had to open a 200K account for a 100K credit limit, I get interest on it (1.x percent) and can use my card (including loading / top-up through e-banking if I need a higher limit)

With SCB you can activate the card with a sms code.. No need to go to the branch. At least I could.

I know the credit card rules.. One can can wonder what the whole point of a credit card is if they want security twice to get one. The debit master from SCB works fine for international online payments anyway.

What I do understand is that they can ask for cash and do not allow bank books or statements.. That makes sense since you could have spent the money 10 times after printing a copy of that... BUT.. what if you flip open phone and log in to SCB and show them a balance that is sufficient?.. It cant be more updated on the millisecond like that...?

Water leak inside her boundries.. or after her meter.. That said.. Hope she doesnt have a farmer besides her.. They use a couple of liters...

Except that you generally cannot enter a condominium without crossing common property.  Which impinges on the rights of the other owners in the building.

 

Generally.. Yes... Agree on that point too.., but not at all always.. Sometimes many of them have private entrances although that is not often.

No one will be frothing, as the bitters are against people renting out condominiums to Airbnb clients. What some one does in his private residence makes no difference to anyone.

I agree, but a Condo is also a private residence.

You need to see if she has the marriage certificate as they don't keep copies.

 

If there is no marriage certificate, then she is not married.

 

If you know she is the one for you and you want to support her and her kid in OZ, get her a VISA.

 

No one will come looking for whether she is married or not in OZ.

 

The marriage certificate is the only proof of marriage. without it you are in the clear.

Well.. I understand your point.., but you are of course registered in the computer system for that also.. The same way when you divorce they update that same file.

People loose their papers everyday.. like blue or green books as well.. 

You go and report it stolen, forgotten or lost and go through the rules and they print you another one with the result of the old book, marriage paper og carbook tambien ban or whatever is Void. 

Of course it is like this. ?

If you get a phone call... Offer him 500 baht about.. Done and over with..

Take the ferry from Samui to Donsak. You can pre-book a mini man tourist bus from Donsak to Khao Sok. Once finished you can take a pre-booked minivan from KS to Phucket.

 

A lot faster and a lot cheaper !

Yepp... Its the fastest and best way.. Although extremely boring though...

That is not required. The Amphoe verifies she is not married when the application for registration is done by accessing their records.

Agree with you on this one for sure...

You are wrong. It does not have to be applied for outside of Thailand. A non immigrant visa (category O) is applied for and a 90 day entry is given when the visa stamp is done.

The link I posted clearly states it can be applied for at immigration here in Thailand.

The page you posted a link to has a lot of incorrect info on it.

 

Im sure you are right.. I just have never experienced that... So you mean you can walk over to your province immigration office and apply for a 90 days Non Immigrant O?

And what do you mean with "when the visa stamp is done"? The stamp is the visa right?

I have had several Non im O before I married for different reasons, but was always told that check to get that visa has to be done at an embassy abroad.. Maybe I was given wrong info or they changed. Also.. I have never given proof of even 1 baht for that visa.. Just paid the regular 1500 baht abroad(in local currency) about.

NON-IMMIGRANT VISA

Non-immigrant visas can be obtained by foreigners wishing to enter Thailand for various purposes at Royal Thai embassies or consulates abroad. The purpose of visit must be stated in the application form.

I dont disagree with you. there might be different ways I dont know about....

C

We talk around each other.. The Non immigrant O 90 days have to be applied for out of Thailand anyway. Any thai embassy or consulate that does it. Remember there are possibly at least 20 ways to get a Non im O. I am just saying the non im o is applied for outside.. The 90 day one that is.

The extension of this based on marriage is like you say 400k Inside Thailand then.

This should explain it more to the core.

I dont understand the problem... Make her scan the marriage document(s) from the amphur. Easy as chips..

And she can of course divorce in his absence.. If she was never married at the amphur she is not legally married and only the kid can complicate her moving.. I think the father(if he wants.. ) have to sign. It is common sense OP in Thailand these things... IF she doesnt know about this... RUN.

Yes but getting it from some european embassies is more complicated than others. He needs to check with them to find out what they require. Best to check before getting because he might need something from his home country to get it.

The original is not needed. A copy of page 1 and page she is registered on would be enough or the print out of it from a Amphoe.

 

His wife's name on the rental contract is will be accepted.

The report within 24 hours depends upon the office it will be reported to.

He has to show the 400k baht is in the bank on the date he applies for the visa.

No need for proof the funds came from abroad. 

He will need all the required documents needed to apply for an extension of stay based upon marriage. Photos and etc for example.

IMO it might be easier for him to make a trip to a nearby embassy or consulate to get a single entry non-o visa.

no... there is no money requirement for a non o. For a years extension it is of course, but not the regular one.

Yes...alot of boogeyman stories here.. Getting married cost 60 baht and divorcing the same. I can not remember any of my friends ever had problems with this. If so.. It would hamper and undermine the whole free world...

Has anyone tried this? 170 baht and 2.15 hours from airport to Rawai.

Looks like good buses.. Wifi and usb charging.

If it was your land, would you want 100's of people walking through ?? I too like(d) this beach, but can also understand the owners point of view. Particularly given that many folks leave a trail of destruction as they go .......

The law is actually not good or specific enough. Cases like this are probably more complicated than just opening up or closing down for private use. This land was probably owned since the 40`s... and that law is grandfathered even if it isnt the same anymore. 

I think now there is a regulation that you need to make a pathway accesible if there is a public beach connected to your property, but not sure..

If you own a road, but not the land around there is a limit on how many houses built before you as a private owner have to give away the road to the government for free.. That is also a rather intricate and mystic law. Meaning one owner can not stop access points to all houses built for his or hers own benefit..
