I seriously doubt the immigration officer alone would have the balls to do that as he clearly says he was kept there till the end and made to book a flight ect which would implicate the whole office.! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamukloy Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I think the whole thing is a lot of malarky. for 1: no body even ask why he is deported?? What!! he making this fantasy up as he goes for sure. if he got deported it is because he did some dodgy dealings or hasnt satisfied visa requirements. he probably ignored previous warnings for whatever he did and finally the hammer fall on him. about the courtcase i say BS also unless it is him that is being sued which would sound more understandable. sheisha bar owner?

Probably more believable that his passport had a red flag and it took them some time to get to the whole story. Things usually are a lot different from the negative the farangs assume from start. They usually gives you a few choices with things like this If you did something unlawful : 1. Get the hell out of dodge..NOW..this they like as it also saves the officers at that place having to deal with it then and there. 2. Immigration centre detention directly. I imagine the GF knows his business and probably admit to the officers. They offered him a easy way out but now he turn up again like a bad smell. For sure next time we read he is probably staying bangkok hilton. 555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do every correctly and legally and there will be no issues but you enjoy wearing that tin foil hat !! BTW I recon the OP is a wind up and will continue to think that unless more inf is forthcoming, Was obviously expecting an issue hence taking the lawyer to do the extension. Yes nobody has problems until it happens... Some people also win the lottery.... It's si clear that people dealing with immigration expose themselves to problems sooner or later. Remember that immigration can only visit or trouble people who give their address... Whatever anybody will tell, it is safer to cross a border every 3 months, whatever is your choice, it's a fact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the OP's case I think there has been a massive communication problem with ref to the 'case'/'lawsuit' as mentioned before. It might even be the case that Imm' were trying to do him a favour but things got screwed up due to the comms' problem. Anyway he seems to be back here now so hope all goes well for him in January.

If you go in for an extension application, for example 30 days early, and it is rejected, do you still have the 30 days to leave from your current permission to stay?

Bingo. How many warnings were given? Were tax filings made? Were the businesses operating in compliance with the local regulations? Oh yes, indeed there is more to this than just a removal. The Thai response is no different than what one would experience in Australia, Canada, USA etc. Non compliant business activity results in an immediate removal order. There is a takeaway message for the IT contractors who read the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The failure to obtain the visa results in a removal order or a denial of stay action. Big difference. Deportation occurs when someone already has the permission to stay. The deportation revokes that permission and requires the judicial process and court order. A removal order does not require the same process. Either youa re granted a visa or you are not. If a visitor shows up in Thailand and is denied a tourist visa on arrival, it results in a removal action. The OP was seeking a visa. it was denied. No visa means one has to leave. Immigration can grant a compassionate extension to allow one to gather ones belongings to leave. This is based upon the person's likelihood of compliance. If the subject is a longtime resident with a history of non compliance it is game over with immediate renoval. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What information did the high-ranking immigration officer give to your lawyer regarding the denial of your application of extension to stay? Did your lawyer draw the officer's attention to paragraph 4 of the Police Order regarding the extension rules? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamukloy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I cannot believe this idea that Imms would escort you out on the same day. Sounds like a big troll windup. But Anyway, IF any of this is true, why didnt the guy just get a flight to Vietnam or whatever close location and just get a tourist visa from there and re-enter ? I dont dispute that Imms will escort you out, but as far as i knew they only have to escort you onto any international flight. Surely you give them some excuse or say you wanna travel around Asia? . Why would they insist he fly home to Amsterdam? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jblood Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 It's probably not my business but. Maybe it's got something to do with your wife - she did the talking and you weren't there. The reason she gave - orange t-shirt sounds ridiculous, perhaps she's trying to hide something. Maybe she revealed some info about you that you wouldn't have done yourself, perhaps by mistake. She as a Thai wouldn't have a clue as to the Visa requirements for a Farang or the restrictions, or the fact that they got a lot stricter recently.
