Life of a overstayer.

[Fabio1980]

Not far from where I live, I know a guy who overstaying his visa. I don't know how long, I don't know why and I see that he doesn't interact much with people when he leaves the house. I've always wondered how you can live peacefully, knowing that you live illegally. And if you have to be hospitalized, you have to show your passport. With the new banking rules, there is a risk that an account will be blocked and being overstayed, how could he do it...and much much more. I think one tries to avoid being seen around as much as possible. However, I will never understand why one would end up living like this.

How do you know? Did he tell you?

 

If he did, I would imagine he told you in confidence.

You're asking for a friend, don't you?😂

Remote work and own country bank. 

 

Maybe he took a page out of the 150k plus Thai living in SK illegally.

He was one of the first person I met when I moved to Thailand and once he asked me if I know a way to fix his problem.

Is not me, if you laugh for that.

These types are LOSERS.

 

More often than not, losers in their home country and now losers in Thailand.

3 years ago in Laos I met a guy who overstayed for many years. Professional sound engineer. He said that he paid about 70k for a visa agency to solve the problem. And got a passport full of stamps without any overstay history.

The new showing passport in hospitals is a game changer, but only if they check visa status which I doubt they will do

That seems like a great deal. 70K kip is only about $3.25 or B105
