What should I do if I'm frequently questioned by Thai immigration as a tourist?

It makes you realise why tourist arrivals are down when you read these stories .talk about shoot yourself in the foot ....

I don't think Thailand is that difficult to enter as a foreigner, thry entering the UK as a Thai national. I think it's referred to as "hostile environment"

I have been here 5+ years - in-and-out, in-and-out every 3 months like a good little habitual tourist. Never an issue. I know it is in part good luck. But the other side of that coin, tourist come and a few have issues - does that mean all tourist have issues?

Seems to me that Thailand is making it rough for any farang to come here. They will be sorry when we stop coming. They forget that this is a third world country.

I’ve said to my wife that the state of western affairs from Britain and USA and Europe it feels like thailand are shutting their borders before massive expat to Thailand occurs

But clamping down on those like retirees etc etc is a bad move

Since they and we put so much into the economy

To hear many are leaving to other Far East countries is madnes

I do on and Off work 28 28 and get that shit often... Even refused entry 2 times.. So fuck Thailand unless I want a drug fuelled 3 some in Pattaya.

Realistically I ask my boss to buy in advance and if he doesn't.... Because sometimes he's a tit, I buy a throw away ticket to the cheapest place... Myanmar or Cambodia etc for 2000 baht.... Or 1 third or the aforementioned 3 some.

When i arrivad at bbk and i got married with my wife out of thailand but i am holding thai non immigrants visa .After open bank accounts i visit more then 10 time to immigration but i still complicated my paper work .They change everyday and every officer is different .So i call a agency to help me out .She tell me all.my paper is perfact .One day she can do it .So i was so happy and ask her how nuch ur fees.She smile and said 45k ..So i just tell her thank u and i moving my ass again and go immigration everyday before i apply for 1 years visa and ask every officer what document you need more .They see me come everyday and finally tell u can come with your wife all is good ..So i give 1900 and its good for years..Thailand has change a lots anf thais are also changing .We understand thai government are make bad people out but government officer are now get more money coz things are not easy..🤪🤪 I am shock when i go immigration i see 1 person holding more then 20 pasport .and its took more.then hours. when all good people come them self and waiting .Its matter of fact living anywere even my own.country not good enough so no complain to other just give thai simle with lots of hates🤪

Paul, do you have your seamans book ? You are entitled to one even though you dont need it offshore. I used to show this it negates the need legally to show a return ticket. Its also very useful to have generally, you can get double baggage allowance and cheaper plane tickets.

He asked you answered and he let you thru after you had thing's in order

These are the consicvence of all does who are misusesing the visa extempt or tourist visa over the year's and still are doing it then this happens to real tourists like you sad but true

You’d figure that they’d want tourists I was reading that more people are checking out Burma Vietnam Lao

Look for another country to spend your time off , the immigration officer make themself a joke , by clearly not understanding the concept of travel

We are sorry to hear that. Unfortunately this is getting out of control. We are processing a few cases pushing for some changes if you would like to give us a statement we would be happy to add it with the others.
