Sounds good. Plenty of obstacles along the way. My Thai wife and I considered opening a restaurant in our village, but we can see she would earn maybe 500 to 1,000 THB a day after expenses and a 10 hour day. We had a Thai restaurant in North America and we each earned $300 - $500 USD (10,000 - 17,000 THB) per day. We earned a good retirement nest egg and are not even considering working for peanuts in Thailand.

Good question. Hope you get your answer.

why

?

@Wannikea ********

I stayed in Cambodia for 20 minutes. I went to active a visa. Easy

That is what my Thai wife and I do. Non-O visiting family in Thailand. There is no actual category that is marriage visa.

good point, I guess. My post wasn’t a complaint. It’s not that we can’t get an agent, it’s that we won’t.

@Hoffman *****

we can’t use an agent. It would make us feel as if we lost that battle. It’s not the cost of the agent, it’s the principle.

deceptive.
