How should I manage two UK passports while entering Thailand and applying for a Chinese visa?

Mike **********

Soooo

I did a google search

And yes it’s true — to a point

Big hassle to get

And only good for 4 years term

Said for the reasons you stated.

But I bet it’s not EASY to get

I’ll take your word for what you are saying.

For some reason I am doubtful that in the USA that I can have 2 passsports

NOT a smart thing to do

Serns like WHEN you get questioned about

What are the best options for withdrawing cash in Thailand and how do they compare to exchange kiosks?

Mike **********

Avoid withdrawing using the Conversion = it’s a rip off.

Just do the withdrawal Without that feature

Will my UK passport with an extended expiry date be accepted for re-entry to Thailand in 2025?

Mike **********

That’s interesting =

That in UK they add on the “residue”

I just renewed my passport

USA=

The new passport is good for 10 years from date of Issue — you start over fresh - my old one still had 9 months of validity.

Doesn’t make sense to add-on — since the World standard is 10 years

Why is the visa application process in Thailand considered outdated compared to other countries?

@Luit ****************

I agree with that

I guess , as someone who has always, adhered to the rules-- even when i wanted to stay longer--

It upsets me.

I also am feeling - after 24 years of coming to Thailand and feeling welcomed- that the current Thai Immigration policies are making me feel —

Less than welcome to travel as a free entity-

Seems really burdensome with all the pre- questions

Is it still affordable to get prescription glasses or eye tests in Thailand compared to the UK?

Mike **********

I agree that you do get good service

But yes concerning prices

Now they are about the same as in USA

The best Deals in Thailand are Dental services

Compared to USA

In Thailand it’s up to 90% cheaper for simple procedures

Mike **********

Come on

They = the corporate streaming providers are not stupid

Get over it

Pay for the services IN the area you are in

Stop trying/expecting them to allow you to

Skirt their policies
