Thanks everyone for your input. I understand the problem. Now I have to learn how to work in the solution. Because I can see this is the normal way of life. I just have to catch up.

I paid 1900 Baht plus the 1900 Baht for the 30 day extension.

We only came in on visa exempt twice (by air)because we too visited other countries within our 30-60 days. We got chastised by immigration and rudely admonished “ next time buy a proper visa”. There were 2 of us. One got bawled out, I was simply stamped in with a smile. Sounds like it all depends on which officer is stamping you in.

Depends on immigration officer. We got chastised and something typed in the computer with the admonition “next time get a proper visa”. We only entered on a 30 day exemption twice! We travel around; a month in Thailand, a couple weeks in Laos, a month in Malaysia, back to Thailand…we didn’t think we were abusing the system.

Be cautious getting your visa for Vietnam. Check and double check all the data sent back to you. Seems several people have been scammed when checking into the flight by agents discovering problems. Which can be solved right on the spot for $350.

Yeah just take the ChaoPrya river boats. They all stop there. When you go there, make sure to go to the Thai market on first floor!! Great “street food” vendors etc.

thanks for that tip. I’ll try it. If you don’t mind, can you do a step-by-step how to do that to get the right sized image uploaded into a visa application? I have sympathy for illiterate people because now I feel I am computer illiterate. It’s very disheartening.
