What should I do if I missed the pickup for my 60-day tourist visa in Kuala Lumpur before my flight?

Duncan *******

The very short version is you won't be catching your flight as you lack your passport. I'd be looking at changing your flight urgently or if you can't - book a new one.

Are there any barriers to signing a long-term lease with a 30-day visa exemption in Thailand?

Duncan *******

Legally no but it is up to the landlord. Standard is a two month security deposit with the first month rent when you sign the contract.

What should I do upon arriving in Bangkok with a 2-month visa, and where can I find the immigration center?

Duncan *******

Extend your SETV for 30 days, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

Immigration office - TM7, lots of photocopies from your passport and a 4x6 Photo. 1900 baht.

I note you're not from from England and teaching English, so 1,900 baht won't be the end of the world for you.

How do I extend my tourist visa and obtain a re-entry permit if I am traveling to the US?

Duncan *******

Question - how long to the US for and what dates? I presuming giving travel time it must be at a min. 3 days. If you leave before the initial expiry date it might be easier to leave then come back on a 30 day visa exempt.
