Anonymer Teilnehmer 844 bribe whom? the whole process is online now. there is no person that you can just bribe

But you have a stamp in your passport. Shouldn’t that be fine then? wouldnt an auto-gate exit work? or just a land crossing?

@Toni ******

the queue in the pure online eVisa system? where you pay online upfront? an agent from a foreign country? sounds like a myth 😅

What can an agent even do to speed things up?

What did the agent even do at all for you? The application is literally only an upload of 4 documents that takes less than 10mins to fill out.

@Stephen *******

then explain it to us and give some mathematical reasoning how this would even be a decent investment. you can buy something here for 5mil baht but you can rent the same places for 10-15k baht. even at 20k rent it wouldnt make sense… while with 5mil baht in a S&P500 i would make 10% annualy = 500k baht. even a conservative calculation with 5% would pay for my rent and counter inflation.

you can but its a $hitty investment idea

@Stephen *******

just calculate how many years you could just rent for the same money. then calculate how much money you make with investing the money in the western world instead (5-10% annualy). even the gains would pay for your rent and you keep your money, stay flexible… real estate is a horrible investment in thailand

Anonymer Teilnehmer 661 why would cheap food give you food poisoning? the most cases of food poisoning that i hear about come from the „quality“ hotel restaurants or fancy restaurants… you think the locals get food poisoning weekly from eating 60 baht pad thais? no, lol… i live here for 2,5 yeads and never had it once and i eat from cheap local places to some middle class restaurants daily.

why do i need to eat foreign food in thailand? why would that even be a criteria? lol… i can eat a thai beef noodle soup for 50 baht here and get a thai iced tea for 25 baht. in ao nang, krabi… i am on a DTV and not a „i need to party hard in all thai hotspots“ visa. why would i stay in a hotel when i can get a fully furnished house for 200-500 €$£ per month???

@Julien ***

thailand is as cheap as ever. why would you even compare a massive tourist hotspot?
