 yep. I have a few friends that returned their U.S. passports🤣

Thailand isn't easy from an immigration perspective.

 16 years ago I closed a Mexican bank account that had around $50,000 USD.

It took almost ALL DAY to close the account.

 over an extended period of time the agent fees will add up. My next renewal will cost me just 1,900 baht. And, I'll probably switch to the income method.

Be careful using an agent.

I had major hassle when I decided to switch applying for the visa on my own.
