What visa options are available for a US passport holder over 60 wishing to stay in Thailand for 6-9 months without substantial financial requirements?

Barry ******

As long as you don’t use Bkk (or Phuket) airports you can probably get by on 6-9 months as a traveller on visa exempts.

But I think anyone over a certain age will not trigger anything by immigration (who’s not intending to stay for long) as they are not really employable material in Thailand.

How many 30-day visa exemptions can I use in Thailand in a year without back-to-back arrivals?

Barry ******

Unlimited subject to discretion.

It’s something that you can’t live there on but you can do as many ins and outs especially if they are quick trips.

Will I face a penalty for overstaying my visa if I was mistakenly given a 90-day stamp instead of the correct 30-day stamp in Thailand?

Barry ******

Go into your local immigration office and have the correct admitted to stay clarified.

Will I get a 30-day tourist visa stamp upon re-entering Thailand after a trip to Cambodia?

Barry ******

Depends on how long you intend to stay for on your second trip.

If its under 30 days a visa exempt will suffice. Taking a trip for 2 months then a short break in Cambodia and then coming back to Thailand looks like a normal traveller to me.

Why are South African passports no longer accepted at the Kanchanaburi border for border runs?

Barry ******

If you have multiple entries or a reentry permit on your current stay/visa you should be able to use any border unless the other country says no.

Do I need proof of TM30 registration for my ED visa extension in Thailand?

Barry ******

For Chiang Mai you can go upstairs and get the actual receipt after you file. No need to show anything. Just passport

That comes in handy when you travel and return so you don’t need to trouble your landlord

What is the age requirement for a bank statement when applying for an ED Visa in Vientiane?

Barry ******

The requirements should be all listed there but if they do request a statement like other consulates any printout showing the balance and your name is sufficient.

What is the age requirement for a bank statement when applying for an ED Visa in Vientiane?

Barry ******

Vientiane does not ask for anything other than the paperwork from the school.

It’s also documented on their site that it’s not a requirement for ED
