  1. Hi, I'm Brit applying for a Single Entry Tourist Evisa. The online form is asking for "Identity of the person inviting you to stay e.g. Thai ID Card, Passport" Trouble is no one is inviting me, I have a hotel booking which I have submitted elsewhere on the form. If I leave it blank it won't let me progress to the next page. Any ideas? Also, It just asks for "Travel booking confirmation" I have submitted proof of a flight into Thailand do I need to show a flight out? Thanks for any help
  2. Hi, i'll be applying for a Thai visa in a nearby country's Thai embassy. I need to show proof of an onward flight out of Thailand at the end of my stay. What's the best site to use for one of those tickets that you can then cancel at very little cost? Thanks in advance
  3. I spent time in Portugal two years ago as country opened up after covid. I was amazed at how beautiful the country is. It's historic, with great food and much cheaper than countries in 'northern' Europe...your euro goes further there! The weather is great too! Go and have a look then make up your mind...????
  4. Hi, i'm a Brit and will be applying for a Tourist Visa at the Thai embassy in Kuala Lumpur next month. The application form and requirements look pretty straight forward all except the requirement... Proof of payment for accommodation for the whole period of stay in Thailand (the receipt must state the tax payer number of the relevant hotel/accomodation (as stated on the embassy website) This doesn't leave much room for flexibility Is a booking okay? Not sure that will provide the tax payer number though. Is there a work around for this? Thanks in advance
  5. They won't need proof of onward ticket as they have a visa. Just show the visa at the airline checkin counter if asked. Immigration won't ask either
  6. Yeah, my bad. I remember last time i then extended for 30 days, which gave me 90 days total
  7. Since last August i've entered Thailand on an entry stamp 4 times, I've been to immigration twice to to extend my stay
  8. Very useful post. Thanks. A tourist visa can be for 3 months, Do they expect me to prove i've paid for hotels for a full three months in advance when i apply?
  9. I will do that if it helps. I’ll be returning into Don Mueang, Does it make a difference immigration wise between DMK or BKK? cheers
  10. Yes, makes more sense to me to go for a tourist visa in KL and cheaper too than keep flying in and out of Thailand for a visa exempt stay. Was just concerned the embassy might refuse a tourist visa application with my ‘history’ thanks for the reply
  11. Hi, i'm a Brit and i've had many trips to Thailand over many years. Always trouble free My issue is, i've been in and out of Thailand since last August on visa exempt and I've now used up all my extensions (2 per calendar year) I'm flying out to KL next month and will be away a month. I will apply for a Thai tourist visa while i'm there. Due to the fact i've been in and out on visa exempt for the past 9 months do you think i'll have trouble getting a 3 month tourist visa? Thanks for any advice
  12. Thanks for the reply. I just didn't want to waste time and money going to immigration and the chance i'm refused Your point of having proof of an outward ticket when i go for the extension is a good one. I will have to leave Thailand then anyway so will buy one and take it with me Cheers
  13. Okay understood...now can anyone please answer the question? Thanks
  14. Hi, i'm a Brit here in Thailand on a 30 day permission to stay I first arrived in Thailand last August on a 30 day permission to stay. I have been going out for a month to neighbouring countries and then re-entering on 30 day permission to stay ever since. This year in January i went to immigration and got a 30 day extension. When that expired I went to Cambodia for a month and entered again two days ago. At the border they queried why i was in Thailand so long and what i was doing. Fair enough and they stamped me in again for another 30 days My question is by the rules i'm allowed 2 x 30 day extensions in a calendar year. I have only used one so far this year but due to the fact i have been coming and going to much over the past 8 months and they began to question this what are my chances of getting another extension at immigration when i apply for it? Any help appreciated Bill
  15. As the title says, i'm looking for a replacement toothbrush head. Anyone know where i can find this in central Bangkok? Thanks in advance Bill
  16. Firstly, i would advise her not to close the account. You never know when you might need it again, they cost nothing to maintain and bank accounts are not easy to open in the first place Contact the bank informing them you have now returned to the UK and give an address of a trusted friend or family member?
  17. Cheers, i thought so. That means mine is valid for 3 months Some great help here, i appreciate it! ????
