I was in Phuket one year it was great but watch out for the idiots throwing firecrackers in the street right in front of you!!!

@Steve *******

thanks again I will be taking your ad ice and going to Ho Chi Minh to the Thai consulate there in February and then visit my kids in Japan score returning to Thailand (providing I find my bride lol 😜)

@Steve *******

one more question If I apply for a 60 day tourist visa does the 60 days start when it is approved or 60 days from the day I arrive?? I owe you dinner my friend

@Steve *******

do you know what documents I have to have with me if I go over to Laos or HCMC? Background check, police report, bank statements, physical, etc?

@Steve *******

That part isn’t the problem lol Thank you so much

@Steve *******

no problem Long story… I am moving to Thailand in December I have no acquired any type of visa yet because it seems most of them I do not qualify for from what I read I am over 50 but do t have the bank funds or the monthly required income I make $1350 in social security from the states Plus I might want to work a little eventually there I even saw if I marry a Thai I still need to put the equivalent of about $10,000 in a Thai bank to get a spouse visa where I can work These requirements baffle me a little because from what I have added up my social security is more than enough for me to live there I don’t want to have come and go through border runs so much and at this time I may have to just go from country to country for awhile like bounce between Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Philippines etc I would much rather just find an apartment, enjoy my life there and maybe meet someone to spend life with A few visa agents have offered help but they all seem shady t me and I want to keep it legal Any suggestions???

@Steve *******

may I dm you? I want to move to Thailand in December and having concerns about a visa
