Why do you need to extend if you just arrived?

Sorry, I have been away a while. But yes, you need an address before you arrive or before you extend.

Done this many times.

She was very helpful to you. That is what some of us know but they don't usually like to tell you that you anything less than a hotel reservation for the entire length of your stay.

If we are talking Infrastructure, I can only compare cities. Of the cities I have been to in Asean, the top 3 (in order) for infrastructure are:

1. Kuala Lumpur

2. Hong Kong (not really Asean, I know)

3. Bangkok

I am sure Singapore would be 1 or 2 but I have not been there (to flipp'n expensive)

Yes, bad experiences a couple of times before the Pandemic.

Thai Immigration "is like a box of chocolates....you never know what your gonna get."

Good luck!

Just like that, the idiot blocked himself from my thread.

And he cannot even see that I called him an Idiot.

BTW, there is no tourism in Covid.

This is my response thread. And I was referring to my experience pre-Covid.

Do Thais go strictly by the law now? 🤣😂🤣

But most banks will tell you 800k unless you get lucky.

Technically there is no law limiting a tourists to 180 days in a 12 month period but try to explain that to Immigration as they are sending you home.

That is a new one on me.

I know sometimes that works but you may have to go to several bank branches.

They wanted 1 Million Baht and a long-term visa from me 3 years ago.

Do you have the correct visa? A Marriage Visa?

Can you open an account with 800k and take 400 out?
