What should I do if Thai immigration is wasting pages in my passport with stamps?

Steve *******

@John *********

which immigration office do you go to?

In Pattaya they put the stamps in random places, sometimes skipping several empty pages and stamping in the middle of a new page, for no reason.

Winston Forrest he actually tried to solve his issue with notes, but the monkeys didn't care. Your argument is invalid.

Steve *******

Monkeys is very flattering.

None of them have ever left Thailand so they have no clue that a passport is used internationally. They treat them like they treat their own livers.

Meanwhile I went to Japan, Korea and Hong Kong and all of those stamps were put on the same page, as to not waste space.

the corruption has nothing to do with it. The tourist visa in the Philippines is easy and extendable up to 3 years.

@Oliver *******

it's not a story. It's their tourist visa rules. At every entry you are allowed to extend your tourist visa up to 3 years.

Steve *******

It would be a much better choice to take that pension to the Philippines where you can stay 3 years at a time on a regular tourist visa. No bribes, no shady agents and no risk to be denied for having too many stamps every time you enter the country.

Is a 3-month deposit for renting a house in Thailand common?

Steve *******

It's up to the landlord. You can tell them you want it lowered and see what happens.

I never pay more than 1 month, as it would be pretty impossible to get your money back if the landlord refused and you already left the country.
