I'm not sure why you're P####d off as there were many giiving sound advice. Yes, you'll always encounter jokers 🃏 no-matter what site you're on.

Make sure you have a reason why she'll need to return to Thailand. Getting my wife a visa, we showed that she had a house/home in Thailand. Also showed that we could financially afford the vacation/trip.

We just returned from Thailand after 3 months. We do have a home in Nonthaburi and have our own car, so we get away with some of the expenses. We do take a little vacation every month, like 3 - 5 days, depending on the location etc. This year we spent in the range of 125,000 baht for 90 days. We usely budget for around 50,000 bath per month.

For a marriage Visa, believe it's 40,000 THB per month or have 400,000 in your bank account at least 3 months prior to application.

That was from 2010 till 2017. Things do change

Will be in the future. As we come now for only 90 days we just get a Tourist Visa and the 30 day extension. Plan to move here in 2025 on a Retirement Visa

To spend my winters in Thailand, I used to get 3 each 60 day visas, resulting in me making 2 visa runs to the Cambodia border. Bit of a pain in the ass but it worked out OK

Just another one of the many money making schemes.

Extremely hard to open a Bank account on a Tourist visa

@Jhon ******

We had to spend the night in Cambodia before returning to Thailand.
