The more I read about the various problems with Thailand visas and the multitude of complications, the less interested I'm becoming. I'm in Siem Reap atm and it seems very pleasant, probably like living somewhere such as Isaan, minus the hassles.
Since I posted the other day about forming a friendship online with a 41 year old Thai divorcee, and wondering, if it got serious, what options I had for being together here in the UK, I have found many guys posting are just being disrespectful to Thai single ladies.
Not every Asian single woman, or gay guy, wanting a relationship with a Caucasian is pretending to love just to get a better life in another country with a wealthy man.
Some, like the lady I am chatting with are genuine. And before you think this 71 yo British guy is nieve, I am not. I can spot a scam a mile off, and my age does not reflect my youthfulness and awareness. I am not gullible.
So if you are attracted to Thai women but have the opinion and attitude that they ALL only want a free ride, then surely you should look elsewhere for companionship or a partner? It seems very disrespectful to those ladies that want a genuine loving, caring and trusting friendship/relationship.
Looks like it’s hard to get retirement visa from Thailand, maybe it’s better to retire in Mexico? You just drive into Mexico and stay anywhere for anytime, and Mexico is not more expensive than Thailand
I have recently applied for DTV from Pakistan . I was called in for an interview on 19th March where the visa officer asked me questions on my intent to stay in Thailand and my employment evidence. He also raised a little bit of concern on my no travel history in the past . Overall, interview went well.
How many days should it take for me to hear back from them ?
If approved, what would be the next steps ?
I have read about challenges at immigration in Pakistan as well as in Thailand while getting in or out on DTV,
Is that true ? What challenges can I expect to have ? What would be the solution?
Which areas should I focus on living in Bangkok, Thailand which are digital nomad friendly and have vibrant nightlife.
Any recommendations or information would be highly appreciated 🙏
I have seen many individuals and families applying for DTV. Where malaysia also gives digital nomads pass. Why people are not interested for malaysia DNV? Just curious to know the actual reason!
