I am an American and I'm currently applying for soft power dtv through the Washington embassy. Im on the "Document indicating current location". I'm currently staying with my mom while I'm here so I don't have any "documentation". Is going and getting a hotel the only way around this? Thanks in advance!

I am planning to visit Cambodia to apply for a DTV. Do American citizens need a visa to enter the country, or can I obtain it upon arrival?

Here is an “Everything Else” question.

Do Bamks in Thailand have the equivalent of a Roth IRA in America for American Citizens?

I wanted a tool to bank outside the US Banking system to not hold dollars for the next few years.

I thought Thailand might be a better option than the Country of Georgia since I’m living in Thailand right now.

Hey guys! I’m in Thailand on a visa on arrival. I’m an American citizen. I read somewhere that I can extend my stay for 7 days, other places say 30 days. Is the difference due to arriving by land or by air? Can someone please clarify for me. Thanks a bunch

I have heard that Thailand is cracking down on visa runs where you re-enter by land rather than by air. I wonder if there’s anything in the facts below that are likely to cause problems.

I’m an American citizen. I flew to Thailand from Malaysia on May 27 on a 30 day visa exempt basis and then flew to Bali on June 13 and returned to Bangkok on June 20, again on a 30 day visa exempt basis. Now I’m in Northern Thailand and am contemplating crossing by land over to Vientiane, Laos on June 26, which would still have been within my original visa exemption period.

I would expect to return to Thailand from Laos by land a few days later (again, hopefully, on a visa exempt basis for another 30 days), which would mean 3 entrances into Thailand within about 35 days.

Only the final entrance by land from Laos could reasonably be interpreted as return from a “visa run,” but does anyone think I could encounter a problem when I try to re-enter Thailand from Vientiane?
