I arrived on a retirement non-O visa and stamped with an expiry of Dec 3. It took time to get a lease and bank account opened. I am transferring the required 800k in 2 parts and the transfers are taking a very long time to show up in the thai bank. It looks like the full amount will not be in the account until maybe Sept 27 or so.

What am I up against with the fact that it will be almost the 1st of December before the balance has been in place for 2 full months. Do I need to wait until then before or is it possible to go in a week or so early, even though the balance may have only been in place for 55 days, etc?

I boo bood

I do my 90 day thing online. An email usually comes to remind me but this time the email didn't come and I was 4 days over the limit, thus 2000 baht fine.

Possibly the email didn't come because it was my first 90 day report after returning from Laos.

Maybe I'm wrong with my assumption but I'm 2000 baht wiser. 😌

I know you can now get a 60 day visa exempt on arrival but is this also for land borders ie. Surin / Cambodia

Recommendations for a taxi service Jomtien to/from Don Mueang.

My go to place no longer goes to DMK.

How long does the 800,000 TB have to be in your Thai Bank Account before you apply for the Thai Visa and how long after you get it?

Good Day,

Can one still get a re-entry permit at Don Muang when departing?

Hello….

Not visa related but an inquiry involving money transfers.

I am currently living in the Philippines and hold some Philippine Peso.

I was wondering if it would be better to exchange here for US Dollars and bring them with me instead of peso….not sure as means exchanging twice !!

Does anyone know the best traveler's insurance for Thailand? Thank you.

Suvarnabhumi Airport to the city by Grab

Is there a designated pick-up spot for Grab taxis at the arrival terminal? Regular taxis often charge extra for luggage and don't provide receipts.
