Hello everyone, I hope you are all well. I am flying to Laos tomorrow to visit Vientiane and to get a Visa exempt coming back to Thailand. Can you please tell me if I can exchange euros to dollars at the Don Mueang Airport? I knew I could get a visa on arrival in Vientiane however I didn't realise until yesterday that they only accept US$. I'll be in Bangkok this afternoon so perhaps I can look for a SuperRich somewhere near my hotel, too (Sukumvit area). Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks and have a great day!

Morning all. With regards to the TM30, I have issues with my landlord doing my TM30 and I saw someone comment that you could self report with a lease at Cheng Wattana. Firstly, has anyone done this and is any other paperwork required or just the lease agreement?

For our Australian members you can no longer apply for any visas by the “old method” of sending in your passport to the Thai embassy/consulate to get a sticker affixed to your passport.

As of March 19th Australia will switch to the “sticker-less” evisa system which means everything is done online.

If you live in NSW you apply and choose the Sydney Consulate. Elsewhere you apply choosing the Canberra Embassy.

The option to apply on line will not go live until the 19th. Until then you’re in limbo as they won’t accept applications anymore via post.

As yet we don’t know the new pricing structure for visas from Australia although they have said there will be price increases.

New Zealand are switching on the same date and have released new prices - some 3-5x higher than previous. Australia may have the same sort of increase but as yet this is unknown.

The online system to apply is here. [members only]/

Hi my husband needs to open a USD account within his Krungsri bank account and has been advised that he will need a letter confirming his address book and passport, from the British Embassy.

Can anybody help with information on this process or an agent to contact please?

Thank you in advance.

Hi there, I am looking to get a ED visa (student visa) I am from the uk.. but I am struggling to understand if I go to Thailand on a tourist visa first and then apply for a student visa while being out there or do I have to get a student visa in the uk before coming? Thank you so so much.

My daughter, (27 year old USA citizen) is considering trying to get a student visa through a Thai language school in the Bangkok area.

She is already fluent in Thai except she wants to study reading & writing a few hours per week.

She is looking for a visa without being in class “full time”.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Is it possible to change the 7 Eleven store when ordering from the app? I don't want it to use the nearest 7 Eleven to my condo because they don't have all the items I want to buy.

Hi,

I had 2 months Tourist visa + 1 month extension.

I left for a month outside of Thailand and i am coming back via bkk airport - a month later.

1. Will I have problems getting 30 days free visa on arrival? ( the previous Tourist visa was the the only one I had in the past 3 years)

2. Will i have problem extending this for +30 ? ( again, after being there for 90 days till a month ago)

Not sure what are the clear rules via bkk.

Thanks!

Just reading some of the many issues that others are having or had.. I’m currently on a retirement O visa, doing my 90 day reporting on time etc. my renewal is up in August for the visa, just to clarify do I reapply for a new visa or an extension, I used an agent when I first applied, got the 3 months extension and 12 months retirement all at the same time so essentially 15 month, I’m in Korat and the immigration office is very good… do I just apply for a new retirement visa and does the extension automatically come with it.. ?
