when you Google there are literally hundreds of people reporting fines, I not spread f ake news, you spread fairytales.

And your renark about missing TM30 for foreigners is complete nonsense, because the property owner is responsible for that.

You just show yoi really do know nothing at all from Thailand.

@Greg **********

So what you say is that all the stories on the internet about fines after missing TM47 are just f a ke news? Just keep on dreaming.

LongTimeLivingInThailand When you comply with all requirements there is nothing to fear from an officer who just takes her job serious.

@Greg **********

What you now say is that because you never get fined while you drive to fast, it is impossible to get fined.

That you have a buddy that did not get fined is nice for you and for him but does not mean anyone else can not be fined.

There are reports of people fined, no idea how high the chance is, but certainly not zero.

You mean it does not fit in your fantasy world, so it can not be true. 555

Paying for using ATM is not paying extra, maintaing ATM will cost money, so it is not strange that you pay for it as customer.

Transferring money or exchanging also is a service that costs money, so who else than the customer should pay for it?

@Iñigo ***********

That you think it is insane does not make it not normal.

It is not typical Thai, most countries tell you that you have to take source documents with you, and also check them.

It is perfectly normal, and your argument that once checked, means extra checks later on are useless is just an invalid argument.

You can read here a lot of stories of people who think they don't have to comply with any rule the moment they are approved.

@Greg **********

You are so funny, drawing conclusions just because you not get fined.

I don't know what you can do with your nose, but telling me I have invalid theories is just stupid.

It is not a theory at all, fact is that Thai immigration keeps everything in their records, just as most Thai institutions.

Thai are famous for archiving everything with numerous forms.

@Tod ********

Where did I talk about officers at entry?

You just seem not be able to read and therefore think I not catch up.

Fines will be there or not at immigration offices.

also says, it varies by office or maybe even by officer, but you can be sure it stays in their files.
