When did it become more difficult to live in Thailand on tourist visas?

Andrew ********

17 years here and it's starting to be a concern. Just did a visa renewal in Laos and I'd say 50% of the applications were refused for incorrect or missing paperwork. First time I've seen it like that. It's definitely not getting any easier. I got mine (12months) but for how much longer?

How does the UK state pension work for Brits living in Thailand?

Andrew ********

I did all my application from Thailand.

No problems at all. Took about 6 months to go through now I get regular payments every quarter.

Only downside is it's static in as much as it won't increase with inflation as things stand at the moment.
