Who is Tod Daniels and how does he help with Thai visa issues?

If you meet the requirements of the type of Visa you like to have you gather all the documents and apply at Thai Embassy or Consulate.

For some perhaps...

@Robert ***********

it is a great community because of his moderation.

Although he will chime in saying it is a group effort ;-)

You and countless others as well...

I imagine about anything if it's not frozen.....

Push a rope through what???

@Pe**

, That is a good question.

I had a friend of mine that needed to change his expiration date because he could no longer be in thailand during the time it expired.

It was hard for the the immigration officers to understand

A ) he needed to change the expiration date

B ) he didn't want a full year's extension this time

Finally they got it and we applied for an 8 month extension instead of the year (same 1900baht).

Honestly it was like trying to push a rope :O

So yes, it can be done, but . ..

@Tod ********

- Separate question - can/will they ever change the anniversary date if requested? Mine falls right in the midst of our available travel/vacation days ruining international travel plans.....I'd gladly give up a couple of months (earlier) to reset the annual date...

Good move Tod, two birds with one stone!

@Pe**

, in Bangkok you can apply for an extension when you have 45 days or less left on your current stamp.

I was going out to do my 90 day report and noticed I was 44 days before my expiration so decided to knock it out too.

They add the year onto your expiration date, so I didn't lose any days by going early.

You were extending for annual Apr in Feb ?

At least we know that Immigration treat all the same, even the living legend of Thai visa advice is facing wrong stamps in his passport but he followed the given advice in this group: Always check your stamps.

I had you down as Bangkok's top visa agent. Your shit mate! 😊

Tod, clearly she should have known better...sounds like something that happens to us mere mortals, 555! :-P

@Rob***

, at first she tried to tell me it didn't matter :O

I told her I have an extension from last year with the April 5 2018 expiration, I came here to get another year, not another 44 days ;)

That's when she put a piece of paper over the passport and tried to correct the stamp by re-stamping the year.

It looks like 28U9

it'll be in the system as 2019.

Very obvious

Yes, we have some very knowledgeable members that can help :-P

If you got into any problem next year you can ask advice in this forum, no problem at all.

Or I can recommend you go to stamp correction...plus (FYI) it's FREE!

As long as it is stamped in YOUR passport, it will fly no problem!

Very true but kinda like stating the obvious :-)

I thought one can only get the yearly visa 1 month in advance?

Well Tod, now you kinda know how it feels, 555+ BUT...You Still Da Man!!!

@Rob***

, I know crazy huh? Managed to do my 90 day report and got my yearly extension 44 days early too :O

Wow, you went for your own passport this time?

Great Stuff!

He is actually a regular guy, just really smart, helpful and well informed....Was he wearing his "Stop Corruption" attire :-P?
