at least in my country there will be one rule and everyone knows the rules whereas in Thsiland the rules are different depending on who you ask and in which department of an embassy or immigration office people work. Even staff sat in the same office can have different answers to simple questions. Plus we will go out of our way to address someone in their first language and not hide behind things being list in translation. Common sense really.

@Ralph ******

wow. Visa exemption for retirement or when you need a tourist visa. Who knew?? And all the other visas can be bypassed by an exemption stamp on arrival? Well well.

@Ricky *******

visa exemption does not cover retirement or if you need a tourist visa.

@Aaron ******

reading the guidance it clearly asks for all dates to be covered by a booking or invitation so where did you get your info from? Plus what good is a bus/ferry/train/flight out of Thailand if I do not take it, or amend it or cancel it. It is pointless.

@Tim ********

I did point this out to them but they point blank refused

@Todd ********

so you were there at the checkin desk and saw what they said? I do not misunderstand what the rules are, the only misunderstanding of the situation is by you.

@Oliver *********

at least they are transparent and not trying to hide their practices.

so telling a story about how it is, is a crime now? Or a chance for you to laugh at something bad that happened? I hope someone is there for you on judgement day.

@Todd ********

not even on a duty free islland like Langkawi?
