What should I do if my retirement visa has expired after leaving Thailand without a re-entry permit?

Mark ***********

@Nongnuch *******

OK. Again semantics. It is either a one year multiple entry or one year single entry, call it whatever you want if it makes you happy.

You either have a multiple entry retirement visa, or a single entry. If you have a single entry you need to get an exit permit, which will allow you to re-enter using the same visa.

Does anybody know if Microsoft teams will allow for a dedicated number, that people can call me at in Thailand, and will also allow me to make calls around the world?

that is a completely ridiculous reply considering how non-competitive those services are. Fanytel is one cent per minute to the US.

What is the easiest type of visa to obtain for long-term stays in Thailand without frequent renewals or trips out of the country?

Mark ***********

The US is gone, it is obliterated, it is a pale shadow of its former self, and anyone who has the potential to leave that broken down nation should do so without hesitation.

@David *********

it's especially helpful if you travel back and forth and your passport demonstrates a history of multiple trips and consistent return to Thailand.

The best tip I was given was to have her bring my original passport as an American. I highly recommend it.

How can I help my Thai girlfriend apply for a tourist visa to visit the US?

Mark ***********

It is very difficult to get a Thai woman a tourist visa, it is more difficult if she is young and pretty. The older she is, and the uglier she is, the easier it is for her to get a visa.

Nonetheless, she still has to qualify. It helps if she has property, assets, bank accounts, and significant cash on hand.
