Popular Post BritTim Posted July 24, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2018 1 hour ago, Injured said: The embassy has a database that shows those that are blacklisted. This is the real list not this barring BS. Which embassy has a list of what exactly? Blacklist decisions are made by the Thai police. They are enforced by immigration, a branch of the Thai police. As @ubonjoe correctly stated, MFA officials (including those at embassies) have no direct access to blacklist information. No doubt they could make an inter ministry request for information on an individual's blacklist status, but they are not going to do this for a simple visa application. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suradit69 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) 11 hours ago, Injured said: It takes a while to comprehend you have 2 departments of the foreign ministry control visa which one has responsibility of issue and the other is enforcement. Embassies and immigrations fall under two different ministries. Embassies do not have access to the information available to immigrations. Quote They must have access to the same records as immigration, and many times the ban is stamped on the passport too. They don't have access to the same information. Something stamped in a passport might result in a refusal to issue a visa, but if the applicant gets a new passport, embassies would not know about something stamped in the previous passport, whereas immigrations would.

They have the correct visa but the difference is they are not banned from entering Thailand. You have the correct visa but ARE banned from Thailand till 2020. That is your fault not Thailand. You have no idea how many as medical have come in. Immigration has no idea who is in this country. This has been voiced and confirmed. February 2018 , computer system not ready for maybe 6 months. Need everyone out before in? But, all these backpackers coming in. They have required funds? Where they go? They fill the T6 with address and walk the country. Are they not to show an address? Entry says, where to stay? Are they there? A medical visa. Denied entry, doctor says no long travel. You are denying treatment for medical reasons. But, you feed, house, medical treatment to murders, rapists. Do you comprehend medical needs? So, if a person is convulsing, handcuffed, and has a barring order, you do nothing and let him die? YOU MUST WORK IMMIGRATION! I would strongly suggest a stay at the Wat. No compassion, humanity, power, you do for you self and not needs of others. That's the current problem with Thailand. What is 3 years? Time to get the computer working? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Immigration should be working directly with Thai hospitals which are caring for Medical Visa holder, or for that matter any visa holder who is medically incapacitated, to assure that they don't run afoul with Immigration. Given the aging expat community, it's going to look really good on international media when incapacitated patients are dragged out of their hospital bed or homes and throw in jail for 'overstaying their visa' when they were physically unable to process the visa paperwork while debilitated. "Thailand will not become a global medical hub if it can't get it's act together regarding smoothing the way for Visa extensions for individuals who have debilitating health conditions..." Thailand has got it's act together regarding this as I know from personal experience and it has had it's act together for many years on this subject. If you don't get a doctors letter confirming your inability that is no one's fault but your own. If you can't get one then it's safe to assume that you're not incapacitated enough to not travel before the end of your permission to stay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Just Weird Posted July 24, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) What is your issue with Thailand, OP? I sympathise with your health issues but you have a barring order which guarantees that you will not be allowed entry to Thailand and you are fully aware of that. Take a look in the mirror and stop complaining about the country that has done nothing wrong. Get this clear, you are not being denied medical treatment by Thailand, you denied yourself that future ability when you were banned and to now try to come here for treatment when you know you are banned is myopic to say the least. You should have got the extension when you were incapacitated, the facility is there with the co-operation of your doctor if it is justified, I know, I've had a medical extension myself because of being in hospital. Why would you think that getting a MT visa will override a ban and allow you entry? It's the Immigration Officer that allows entry, not the visa but entry will always be denied to someone with a barring order. Sorry but why should you be allowed back?

Different Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Just a thought, I think it is impossible unless you pay someone in immigration or an immigration officer a million or two baht to enter, sometimes corruption isn't that bad.

Crying foul is more than a bit rich. But most western countries have avenues for appeal against immigration decisions (or 'non decisions') and may allow for entry based on individual circumstances, family or compassionate grounds. I'm not aware that Thailand allows appeal or redress against administrative decisions? Most western countries have some sort of immigration admin law built into the legislation and a clear, defined process for appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not aware that Thailand allows appeal or redress against administrative decisions? Most western countries have some sort of immigration admin law built into the legislation and a clear, defined process for appeal. Thailand has procedures to request that blacklisting be lifted. I think the two most common reasons are because the blacklisting was done in error (clearly not the case in the OP's case) or compassionate grounds (where the OP may qualify). As I understand it, an appeal on compassionate grounds is never considered until you have been out of the country for at least 12 months. Even then, you would need a good lawyer to lobby on your behalf. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait and let it go. Forget about it and it will go away. Thai mentality. It's just a ploy. They split the reasons. Either medical or barring order. The barring order take priority over medical. They can treat the patient as it still is a visa with a entry/exit period. Patient can be treated with same initial physician. When physican considers the patient well. He can apply as required or exit the country. We have the same rights as a local if married to a Thai in obtaining work. However. If injured, we can not ask for medical assistance. This is where the separation steps in. You have a barring order. It does not allow entry for medical. Now, where in the law does it say this? There is none. Everyone in immigration check.... Are your shoes on the correct foot. I look from this view, if I am correct, it will still take another year to correct and allow entry. I'm in no hurry.

Nan, where in the law is this written? There is none. You are telling me medical condition of a person is no concern of Thai,? Irrelevant? Means,,, of no concern. Thank you. You have made an assumption of law which is not written. As I stated. The overstay penalty was not corrected in entirety only the penalty was changed. But, no immigration official will put that in written form with stamp to the petition. They hide! Or think it will just go away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The country has no idea who is in the country. That's why these articles have impacted the entire country. How many MT visa? How many bedridden? You do not have the exact number.

Catch a slow boat back to the US that probably has the most superior medical treatment capabilities on the planet and get sorted out. You have mentioned military clearances so avail yourself of any benefits afforded to US veterans. Your insurance will cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FritsSikkink Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 5 hours ago, Injured said: Wrong. The situation of the visa decides your entry. Reasons for entry due to medical treatment and request of a physician. Having a barring order just pertains to entry. You see nothing wrong with a country that denies entry for medical reasons? Even a jailed murderer has medical treatment? Medical visa is not a tourist visa. But has a time limit same. They could allow entry based on the visa time to gain treatment. Sure my fault. I wanted a stroke. I originally just requested temporary visitation. But the twit lawyer said easier just revolt the order. See the doc and back to work. Thailand fault? No. It's immigration fault for not keeping track of entries and departures. He needs a brand new computer system. Why not just perform the job? Immigration has no idea who is in Thailand. So, how to fix the problem.? Get foreigners to come to immigration for interview on new visas, changes, reporting. At the entry points setup more interview on foreigners coming into Thailand. You check each foreigner you cross path. In fact. After 25 years, immigration is finally working. What happened prior? The Boss slip up on supervision of the job? Let down the safety and security of Thailand? No. Not my fault, no. Not Thailand fault. Who's fault ? Get a reality check, you and you only are to blame for your current situation. You are not a Thai citizen so Thailand has nothing to do with your medical issues. You also will never be a Thai citizen as you have utter disregards for its immigration laws.
