Rancid Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Unless someone comes up with a better idea you could contact a large law firm and investigate what it would take financially to remove your name. Expect not real cheap though. Either that or have a friend come here and finalise things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Change your name in your home country and get a new passport. It would be difficult to sell the registered items like the 2 motorbikes or the girlfriend with a passport under a different name although you could bring the cancelled one in your luggage. But probably the cheapest option. Edited December 2, 2012 by Briggsy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I reading this right, you want to clear your name!! are you innocent then? The fact that he was only fined 5000 baht and the quantity of ganja was so small doesn't seem to warrant a total ban on coming back into Thailand, but it's up to the Thai government to decide I guess.

simple1 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Change your name in your home country and get a new passport. Need to be very careful as some countries now use ePassports and you don't know if they incorporate name change info; it would seem obvious to do so as an application for a new passport would need to provide legal documentation for the name change. Also ePassports have bio metrics for data matching - don't know if Thai Immigration has yet to incorporate in their IT systems, but their software is constantly being updated Edited December 2, 2012 by simple1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stiggy Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Cut your loses, ask your GF to sell bikes and other stuff. meet her for holiday in Laos? It would more likely be that the court didn't put you on blacklist but Immigration did in which case your screwed. I have known others get fined officially from small drug offences, then they had to pay heavily to immigration to avoid the situation your currently in.

manarak Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) OP: give a power of attorney to someone, for example a lawyer, to sell your stuff. This can be done remotely using certified signature, maybe the signature needs to be legalized. Regarding "clearing your name the legitimate way", I don't know what you mean - you have been found in possession of 20g of marihuana - how do you imagine clearing your name? It's not like the police made a mistake or something... In Thailand, this will always stick to your name like elephant brand glue, game over. I don't think a name change is deceit if done legally in OP's country of origin. It is the Thai authorities' job to identify blacklisted persons, the blacklisted don't have the duty inform everyone that they are on the blacklist under a different name. On the visa application form there even isn't a question asking the applicant if he has been refused entry to Thailand in the past and for what reason... And the other way would be, as suggested earlier, to get a Thai attorney on the case to try to remove your name from the blacklist. I guess it is possible, but won't be cheap.

Just out of interest op how long ago was the court case about 8 months now since the court case was finalized, and it was devastating to be refused and all my questions about how long am i to be banned from entry were answered with shrugged shoulders so i think an attorney in thailand to review my case should be my best option and cheers for your info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very liberal in your tolerance standards are we? Mike Macarelli Chaiyaphum, Thailand Sent from my Samsung SIII Tolerance for drugs? Certainly not! The absurdities of "recreational use" etc, just serve to cover addiction. And those "liberals" who consume drugs are better out of Thailand than in. In any case, the conduct you advocate is a crime under Thai laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
