@Paul ********

do you not understand the difference between working from thailand vs. participating in the thai labor market?

@Paul ********

what is so crazy? if you are working online you are not competing with thai labor. a work visa is for participating in the thai economy as labor.

above posted on wrong thread, but in regards to your self employed but on 150m platform part

@Michael ********

Michael Ballman what does that mean? I don't understand how you are hitting this requirement. also these requirements seem like they are intending for people to qualify 90% of the way there but not actually have barely anyone get actually able to qualify and use the program, for completely arbitrary reasons.

@Tod ********

what if by air?

What would they charge for overstay for, if leaving before the visa expires? I'm on Ed visa and just plan on leaving Saturday. Mine expires like a week later. Didn't plan on going to immigration...

my reasoning for wanting to get it out of the way asap is i'm heading to koh lanta for the rest of the time, and don't want to take a trip back to krabi from lanta just to get the extension.

so i'll land my 2nd time, get a 30 day sticker, and can immediately head to an immigration office for extension? works for me. found this for krabi too - wondering which is less of a headache. seems that while BKK may take more of an effort to get around, i could be sleeping in koh lanta that night? else i might need to spend a night in krabi it seems before lanta.
