Hi,
Just looking for some advice.
I have been in Thailand for 2 years, with the exception of going to Australia for 3 months, and back home to Ireland for 5 months.
On return to Thailand in August, the IO argued with me and told me I had to leave in 2 weeks, as I am not a ‘tourist’ when I explained to her I had a boyfriend here. She told me I cannot stay in this country long term to be with my boyfriend as it is not a valid reason.
However my passport had 60 day stamp, which I used and extended with no issues in Samui, they only mentioned that the IO in Bangkok made a ‘remark’ on my passport.
This is now up for renewal in 2 weeks, meaning I will be actually leaving and returning to Thailand for the first time after the issues in Bangkok.
I’m planning to do visa via Andaman Club.
Is this a big risk as I had problems previously in Bangkok? I really would not like to be sent to my home country in those circumstances.
Maybe going home and trying for a more promising visa such as Ed visa is better? And yes I would actually study.
I know there is no exact answer for this but any advice on other people’s experiences would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance 🙏🏼
