How can expats find long-stay accommodation in Bangkok for one year?

Darren *******

Check out sites like renthub and hipflat, can then contact agents through there for places you like. Alternatively, use the site to find places you like and then go to the condos themselves and speak to the juristic office to see what's available.

Do I need a new onward ticket to enter Thailand if my previous one has expired?

Darren *******

@Alika **********

it will most likely be the airline who will check at check in more than immigration once landed. I don't know if they check to see if your ticket us legit or not at check in or just a quick scan to see you're leaving Thailand within 60 days.

What are my long stay visa options in Thailand as a 19-year-old expat?

Darren *******

as a foreigner you need a degree and a certain number of years work experience in your field in order to work in Thailand.

I'm not sure if IT support is a prohibited job for foreigners here either. There are jobs which are solely reserved for Thais.

Is it a good idea to take a pram when traveling in Thailand with a toddler?

Darren *******

@Natalie ***********

don't worry about how busy it is. I live in Bangkok and moved here when my youngest was 2. I used to push him around in a pram, no issues. As someone mentioned elsewhere, make sure the pram has good wheels as pavements aren't great here.

you don't have a degree so you can't legally work here. You also don't have enough experience to meet the requirements with the exception of teaching English.

Can I extend my 30-day visa in Thailand for another 30 days?

Darren *******

@Фам **********

very simple to extend by yourself, which is done for 1,900 baht. If you're paying more than that then you're being ripped off and/or using an agent.
