Can any Pakistanis share if you've had success or issues doing a border run to Cambodia, Laos, or Vietnam? Not sure where to go without issues.

Arriving shortly in Thailand, using 60 day visa exemption.

Is there ANY hard and fast rule as to how early into that period you can apply for a 30 day extension??

The www is littered with contradictory opinions, ranging from "immediately after arrival" (albeit NOT at the airport) through to "a few days before the 60 days are up"... and almost everything else in between.

Is it simply a mess... at the discretion of the Officer in front of you... or is there a RULE?

And since I am complaining about travel nonsense... I paid 24usd to have a CHECK bag. Weight limit 15kg apparently. I am 5 kilo over... The fee is 1700 baht. Vietjet is like a Bangkok taxi driver who refuses to use the meter.

Edit: check bag and 15kg limit. I don't know how I made BOTH of those errors. I am going to blame vietjet.

Can somebody please clarify the requirements and entry process for 60 days exempt entry? I've seen some places where they state you have to have 10.000 baht to show, others say it's 20.000. I've also heard about some document you need to fill out in order to get a QR code. What else? Do they ask for an onward ticket and/or proof of acomodation? Thank and sorry if this had been asked before

Looking for options for Health Insurance for Thailand Retirement Visa for a 68yo relatively healthy Quotes I'm getting of $900-$1200usd monthly are not an option. What inexpensive option is there? My health insurance I have doesn't cover outside USA.

Hello.

It's about the language of Thai names and Thai addresses in documents.

My partner said that you can translate everything from Thai to English using Google Translate, for example.

Is this official and applicable without exception?

Example 1:

The landlord gives you a name and address in Thai language, but you can't enter these in the online banking system of your overseas bank or in Wise.

Use Google Translate and the money reaches the recipient?

Example 2:

I need my address in English in my Thai bank statement for my POR for my overseas banks, for Wise and for my pension fund.

Can I ask for a residence certificate with the address written in English, or can I ask the bank to translate the address into English?

Does the Thai postman find the address if it's written not in Thai language?

TIA

Hi all I’m just after some info as I’ll be selling my uk home soon so in order for preparation to move to Thailand, is it best to apply for a marriage visa before I leave the uk (I am married to a Thai) and if so how soon before as I’m guessing it will be valid for a short period before entry? Another question as I have the money to the amount of 400k thb ready to transfer to my Thai bank, how soon does that need to be in my Thai bank if applying for a visa while in the uk?

I have a question regarding DTV. As of this Summer my spouse will officially be retiring from the military. His retirement and VA disability is more than enough to live off of in Thailand which is where I will be for my internship. I’m a full time student getting a degree in ESL with a focus on teaching Thai students specifically. I can stay in Thailand on my education visa during my internship but the husband and kids will be coming with me. He is too young for a retirement visa and he’ll need to be a stay at home parent since our kids need online schooling. Does the retirement income and VA income count towards a DTV? I’ve heard conflicting answers on expat pages so I figured I would try here.
