ubonjoe Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I have not seen any reports of anybody using them lately. There is a link (button) to their website on the immigration website which means they do have some kind of relationship with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovethailandelite Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 They are an agent endorsed by TAT. They operate fast track through the airport much the same as Thailand Elite, picking you up at the plane door etc. They have a tier of different memberships that entitle you to different benefits. They do not offer the PE Visa but will for a price take care of your retirement extensions and 'Guide' you through the process. They have been around for 16 years and as they are endorsed by the government, immigration and TAT are a safe company to deal with. Seems a good bet for those that have no interest in dealing with paperwork issues. About Us The Thailand Longstay Company registered as the Thailand Longstay Management Co., Ltd was established in 2001 with the endorsement of the Thai Royal Government to support long stay tourism. Moreover, the Tourism Authority of Thailand is a major shareholder of the company. As a result, we aim to provide the best services to retired expatriates to promote the tourism industry of the Kingdom of Thailand. Since its establishment, the company has signed many MOU with many government organizations such as the Immigration Bureau, Tourist Police, and the Airports of Thailand. Therefore, we specialize in doing a 1-year retirement visa for expatriates and other matters related to the immigration procedure of Thailand. We offer the most convenient way in gaining a 1-year retirement visa. Members of the Thailand Longstay do not need to go through the bureaucratic procedure by themselves because the company will process the entire immigration procedure for our members. This is the ultimate convenience that we provide. Our Services One-year Retirement Visa To facilitate the demand of foreigners wishing to retire in Thailand, the government has given tourists over the age of 50 with the right to apply for a one-year retirement visa. However, this process is very bureaucratic and tedious. Many foreigners can find it confusing and Thailand Longstay is here to help tourists who are our members go through this process as smoothly as possible. Immigration Procedure It is also a legal obligation of every tourist with a one-year retirement visa to report his or her official address in Thailand to the immigration office within 14 days upon his or her entry into Thailand. As a member of Thailand Longstay, the company will handle this legal obligation where we will report to the immigration office on behalf of them with required documents from our members. Therefore a member of Thailand Longstay does not need to report to the immigration office by him or herself. Fast Tracks at Airport Immigration Suvarnabhumi Airport is one of the world’s major airports. As a result, the size and the traffic inside the airport can be overwhelming. A member of Thai Longstay is entitled to be picked up by our airport staff and porter with a golf cart from the airplane gate. The staff will take our members through fast tracks immigration and custom procedure and send them off to their desired transportation. This service also extends to people who accompanied a member of Thai Longstay. Fast Tracks for Thai Driving License If a member of Thai Longstay desires a Thai driving license, the company will take the member to the transportation department where he or she is also entitled to a fast track service in acquiring a Thai driving license to make his or her stay in Thailand even more pleasant. Think about TLM , you can think about a one-stop service provider giving you the ultimate convenience to having a long stay ( 1-year ) experience in Thailand , definitely , with the ultimate trust you gain from our governmental partners. We will take care of you, a retirement tourist (50 years of age and over) and your family, from the first step into Thailand as follow ; The Fast Tracks TLM provide the Fast Tracks to help our members get through bureaucrat procedures fast and smooth. Starting from the plane gate, our customers will receive the hospitality welcome from TLM receptionists, plus arranging privileged passport checking through TLM Fast Tracks. Then TLM receptionists will take care of baggage claim till the members smoothly reach the exit outside. 1-year visa with single / multiple re-entries TLM have the MOUs signed with many governmental partners, and one of them is the Immigration Bureau. This is why our customers will get the ultimate convenience ever for making of 1-year visa without the risk of being cheated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I read it too at their website,,, this is just any "another" agent trying to squeeze money out from falangs, that are not able to read or write, or too lazy to do any of it..... But I guess it is up to each and everyone to defend their choices in life.... But for me,,,, bring TM7, photos, photocopoes of passport, and so forth, if you must have money in the bank, and bring a smile and easy to do it your self for 1.900 baht,, saving every year 15-30.000 baht...

Considering the number of people back home who use H&R Block to prepare the most straightforward of tax returns I think you have an overly optimistic view of how people generally view bureaucracies and form-filling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordblackader Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Am I reading this right: their silver package for 15,000 is basically expedited entry at Swampy and a free consult BUT no actual visa services? If so, who are they kidding? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
