I usually get a 90day non imm o visa based on marriage to a Thai but now those visas have gone from nz$120 to Nz$800 I’m changing to the 60 day visa exempt then going to Cambodia for 7 days then back to Thailand for another 60 day visa exempt entry which times in with my flight back to NZ so hopefully no problems.I also have Thai bank account,Thai drivers licence and yellow Tabian Baan house book.
Spent 42 yrs in Australia,then retired and came back to NZ,now I was planning on living permanently in Thailand with my Thai wife and family so I rang Centrelink International services as I get Aussie pension paid through NZ WINZ and asked them for a portable pension and they told me I had to return to Australia for two yrs so at 73 yrs they can shove it up their you no where
