Its very common in Bangkok, but you have to go with the agent and you spend about 20 minutes there as Imm need to take a biometrics of you. As Bangkok imm at CW can take 5 or 6 hours many use it and the services are openly available. Not cheap, 9000 last time I used it but they arrange transport as well.

Guderian Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Hire a wheelchair for the day and have someone push you there, you'll be let in very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of 1,900 total 8,000 .it's worth it no hassle at immigration at all.. That's a good price - can you pass on the agents details? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilly07 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 A no show agent is worth their weight in gold if it prevents queuing at the bank X 2 often outside in the sun if they are imposing COVID restrictions and then X 2 at immigration especially if you need a wheelchair. My last agent charged me 16.5kbht and my bankbook showed well in excess of the required FTTs and I do my 90 day on line hence any recommendations? Just asked my current agent to do a certificate of entitlement and it's taking a week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To each their own, and the OP is 80 years old so understand he wants the convenience. Am only 65 years old, but that seems totally too much for someone who has the money in the bank and can get the simple bank letter himself and paperwork. I have never waited more than an hour or 2 at Chonburi immigration in each of the last 5 years. Even in the U.S. when I worked a high paying job I only made $50 - $70 an hour, 8000 baht is $230 U.S. I do like to support Thai businesses, but this is something I cant go for. 5555 Edited February 6, 2023 by Skallywag 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
