Can I obtain a non-O visa in Thailand if my children are over 20?

Ian *********

Ok thanks seems bizarre as they don’t stop being your kids at 20 lol. Anyway I’m divorced and I haven’t got 20k to sit in a Thai bank. I guess if I come for 6 months I’ll just do visa exempt and extension twice leaving for a few weeks in between.

How can I find affordable flights to Thailand during high season?

Ian *********

There are less flights and a lot of codesharing making the planes busy. It keeps demand high therefore prices high.

What should I write as my intended stay duration when applying for a DTV visa if I plan to leave Thailand for a short trip?

Ian *********

I would just put 150 days as once you have it and are in it’s obvious you can change plans.

Does my friend need to refile the TM30 every time he returns to Jomtien after internal travel in Thailand?

Ian *********

@Nongnuch *******

if you tell immigration they will tell the landlord they want 150 of the 300 then the landlord will charge 450😂😂 but seriously.

I would tell the landlord I’m not paying it and it’s his duty by law otherwise you’ll report it to immigration why you don’t have it.

What is the best destination for a visa run from Thailand: Da Nang, Singapore, or Manila/Cebu?

Ian *********

uk passport can stay 45 days! If you get bored hop on the train to Hue takes 2 hours along the stunning coast about £3.

Nice place very historic but nice bars and clubs too.
