you only pay the 1900 baht if you dont leave the country for a complete year. If i leave the country every week, i get a complete new years stamp everytime i come back in. I've never paid for an extension. I also have no wish to have any dealings with immigration if i don't need too or re-entry permits, money in an account for 3 months and anything else they decide to come up with. I much prefer seeing a visa in my passport valid for 5 years each time.
every time you enter Thailand you get a full years permission to stay. If you DON'T leave the country, you go to immigration and buy another years permission to stay for 1900 baht.
Stéfan Breton you need to get this 'Its not my responsibility' out of your head. FACT is, if you dealing with an immigration office that requires a TM30 and it hasn't been done, it very quickly becomes YOUR responsibility to get it done when your refused an extension. You either get it done or you simply don't get the extension. Your choice.
Not sure as i am reading this right? Anybody of any age, can come here with a foreign child of any age with no Thai in it at all ( I guess under 20 years old) and simply stay here as long as you like and as long as you show 500k in a Thai bank account?
No, sorry not myself. Only from others that really wanted to learn. It seems to be a school that doesn't exist just to gain people a visa. The people I know that used them, live here so never needed to go to school simply for a visa.
all countries have a central clearing house for incoming and outgoing International transfers mate. It's how they keep track for money laundering purposes etc.
The UK for instance, i think you'll find is Barclays handle it.
