TommoPhysicist Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) And yet so many TV posters complain about the paltry visa fees in Thailand!! The UK fees seems cheap compared to the 191000 baht for Thai PR If you are married to a Thai, you don't need to do PR, straight to citizenship and dead cheap, 5000bht I think.
