wishing you all the best with this. I hope her mom can understand the importance of letting her go.to a family event and to embrace both nationalities

Ok you say it's for a 3 week holiday and then another post says she wants to live in Ireland. Sounds like a mediator needed and a family discussion with a lawyer present

@Bob ********

thank you this good to know. So they outsource from Thailand to Delhi. Is that why the British Embassy in BKK sold the beautiful land to Central Embassy mall?

Wait the agent was making the application in Bangkok or in Delhi?

I have thai friend who use an agent to go to france every year and her application was also refused 2 times..she has her own business and family in bangkok. It took 2 months but the 3rd time they finally approved the visa.

Im 30 years here and fully agrre with you..if your attitude is warm and open this I what you will attract. Keep up your positive thoughts. Even in bug cities and touristy places there are so many lovely Thai people..as in any other country, there are the ones who will try to rip you off and double pricing can also be annoying, yet the majority are helpful and kind.

Are you doing a border run or getting a visa at the embassy?

Both places have good and bad qualities, check.out the schools, the houses and the atmosphere in both places, rent a car and take a look at other places, hua him, cha am etc..also.depends on what you are doing for work and type of visa

i also used to get a full check up for less than 3000 baht at thonburi hospital and siriraj for less than that.. everything has now changed..

Hi Larry, a long time ago those were the prices and certainly not at this particular hospital. Public hospitals are still reasonable, the private ones are expensive now without insurance. also its relative to where you are from US hospitals are out of control..
