Why can't we recommend visa agents operating inside Thailand in this group?

ATTENTION MEMBERS:

Please realize that we do NOT allow the recommendation of visa agents or people inside the country that "push paper" at the immigration offices for visas and/or extensions.

The process is not convoluted or fraught with peril and a person of average (or slightly below average) intelligence is certainly capable of compiling the documentation to get what you're wanting from the immigration office.

If you still feel you need an agent Google is your friend NOT this group.

Posts that ask for agents or agencies and ones that mention them will be deleted. Repeat offenders will be banned & blocked

It's just if we allow one person to mention one agent inside the country we will have a ton of people recommending this and that person and as we have no way to vet them there is a NO visa agent or agency policy on the group.

We do allow the mention and recommendation of visa agents outside the country at the thai consulates who push paper to get visas for thailand.

We also do allow the mention and recommendation of visa run or border bounce companies that take to you a thai consulate or to the borders.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The group prohibits the recommendation of visa agents within Thailand to maintain the integrity of the visa process and avoid potential scams. While some users express concerns about the complexity of immigration procedures, the admins affirm that individuals can manage their visa applications independently. Recommendations for agents outside Thailand, particularly at consulates, and visa run services are, however, permitted.

Is it not the law that you have to apply in person, for e.g. an extension based on retirement?

I'm a visa run agent on an isolated island with no immigration office. I give a lot of help for free "on the ground" to my customers and sometimes help in this group if I see a question I can help with. It's a great group must say and you guys based in Bkk that are admin and probably go to immigration many times weekly do a great job, keep up the good work!
