Just remember when you go over the border you will only get a 15 days permit to stay when you cross back over unless you have a re entry visa or multi entry on your tourist visa.. Check at the border before you go..Lots of good places to stay in Chiang rai and I would say the Nim see sing is great value at 399 baht a night. its better than the wang come at 1200 baht a night. has air, cable tv and some breakfast.. breakfast is coffee and toast. Check out Rico's bar while you are in Chiang rai it is by the condo Hotel . Everyone should know where it is. Rico's beach bar(in town) has good food farang and Thai and cheap drinks. Good expat bar...Anything else you need to know them message me..have a good trip Dave

I would like to know of interesting tourist spots acessable by car around chiangmai also would like to know if you can get into bordering countries such as burma or laos with a car the vehicle I have also runs on lpg so it is economical to run as well providing there are gps stations along the way

I would like to know my single entry visa finishes on the 6th october i took a trial run up to masai the immigration officer told me i can make an extension of up to one month at airport currently I am in chiangmai thailand can this be done at chiangmai immigration at the airport and someone told me the fee is only 1900 baht and do I have to do any visa runs up to masai burma as well

I think most people would use a airgun I bought one in chiangmai it is a ZTE model can also use 3g my question is if you brought your sim card from your own country ie like vodaphone and used it here would the speed be faster as satelites are what revolve around the earth and some telephone companies use better 3g capibilities than here in thailand

http://www.ais.co.th/3g/EN/ Ais Super 3G - This is being advertised a lot at the moment. They recently increased the service coverage and now it reaches most of the population in and around Chiang Mai city, up to Doi saket, Hang dong etc etc. Sadly it doesn't reach me. I'd be quite interested to hear if anyone is already using it and what its like. Supposedly the fastest thing going at present. If you are out of coverage then it switches to edge. Could be worth considering?

I have it as a back-up to ADSL. I have only had to use it once (thankfully) out in Hang Dong. It worked fine for email and general browsing. Not sure whether I got 3G or Edge... Under 4k to buy and then from as little as 100 Bht per month (first six months on 100 Baht package included.

I would like to know about the marriage visa requirements if a a foreign national wishes to live in thailand under a marriage visa the 400 hundred thousand bond to the thai government is that refundable if he and his future wife wish to return to the foreign nationals country also how long can a tourist visa be extended in thailand i say that because my future wife might probabely wish both of us eventually to go that foreign nationals country, I am just thinkng for now to help my future wife to support her and our kid
