Thank you for allowing me to join your group. I am a soul singer from Philly.i wanted spend one year in Thailand and am interested in the black music scene if any there
When entering this morning the lady at immigration filled out the stamp incorrectly and changed it like this. Has anyone had any issues when exiting with something like this?
I'm currentlt on a 90 day tourist visa however just realised my return flight I've previously booked and paid for, my departure date will take me past my 90 day visa by an extra 6 days.
Will this cause me issues upon departure at the airport ?
I applied in manila thai embassy, submitted all my working visa documents in the PH and my proof that i can work remotely. After my visa was rejected, i plan on going to TH via the visa free route but found out i was blacklisted in TH. Their reason for Blacklist is incorrect. How do i go on about this? They said my ICard should not be issued to foreigners and that they have suspicions of fake document. But only foreigners are issued icard and not local filipinos. My guess is that the consul is not familiar with Philippine documents. How can they blacklist if they are not sure. Immigration can certainly issue a CTC of the documents i submitted
Im posting as anonymous cause i tried to apply to the DTV with an agent and they were a disaster (compass) they ghosted me asked me the same docs over and over again, their app didnt work and made me waste a lot of time and somehow ended more stressed about it. I did it my own as took me literally 5 mins is pretty easy as long as you have compiled the docs in low resolution to be uploaded. My visa was approved and will be back in Thailand tomorrow :) thanks everyone for the tips
Hello everyone. I was denied entry into Thailand based on a 60-day exemption. Will I have a problem entering with a DTV visa? Has anyone had a similar problem? How can I re-enter Thailand? I don't have an entry ban.
Hi Group. In Laos getting stamp fo non immigrant O.
Arrive today through friendship bridge Nong khai.
Got passport stamped. Now they say at border I need to go Laos Embassy to get Visa to stay here 2 days...They are closed tomorrow Sunday so I need to go Monday get visa than head back Thailand.
So I left Thailand and reentered on my DTV back in April. Today I went to report my address for the 90 day report.
Had all my documents in order (or so I thought).
I did not know you needed a TM30 for each time you exit and reenter Thailand. Immigration official’s smile immediately fades when she looks me up in the system and asks why my TM30 is dated for July and not April.
Well, “There was a typo in my name”, I said.
She said, “No, where is your TM30 for April. You only have two TM30s. Where is owner. Charge ฿1600. Contact owner right now. Do not leave. You call I speak to owner.”
Condo Owner: not responding to texts or calls
Me: the genius who left his wallet back at the condo, because, “Oh, immigration is just a short stroll to the beach, I’ll be in and out.”
Currently sitting here hoping they’ll let me return with the money. Each time they ask for owner, they just get angrier and angrier. Dear God
Update: They let me come back with the money. Got my receipt and I swear to God I’ll never make that mistake again 🤣
Anyone else had problems with NCU (north Chiang Mai university)? I was on a year ED visa with them and was planning on getting on the DTV next.
Well upon asking for a visa cancellation letter to exit the country before the end of the ED visa, I learnt that my visa was cancelled over 3 months ago. Apparently they cancelled 1000 students visas at the time. Didn’t bother to inform anyone. This is totally absurd, but I find myself illegal now, and most likely blacklisted.
If you had similar experience or know somone, please contact me. And if your planning on taking classes with that school please don’t.
Now i try to receive allowance for working in Thailand and my company say yes after four years fighting but only for 25 working days in a year. I try to contact the "Thai Konsulat in Munic" if they accept also a guarantee instead of the 500.000 deposit but i receive no answere. I try also to talk to them via phone but it is impossible to receive someone on the phone. And the risk that they deny my visa as a workcation and loose money is too high. And when it happen they don't give you the reason. So i will give up now. Sorry for try to work in Thailand. I will wait now for my retirement.
Lesson learn: sometimes you win, sometimes you loose.
