0 bht = £20,000, £20,000 can earn you between £800-£1000 in uk

First visa + bank account at 40,000 bht = £1000 following years 12,500 bht= £312 after the second year you are already up £400-700 using an agent not your own money it's a no brainer ,this is worked out at 40bht to the pound .

@Lynnette ******
not with in 3 days of arriving in Thailand this is wrong,it's 3 days before arriving in Thailand it is confusing!
Simon *******
Thanks for all your answers, it looks stupid to me the Thai government want you to fill the tdac in 3 day before to give them time to process it ,why can't you do it a week before to give them more time surly that would make sense.

It is only 15 months the first year ,12 months when renewed.

@Tony *********
exactly if you have the right visa why extend it ,do a boarder run then say for 2 days job done.
Simon *******
@Stuart ********
yes I understand that but as they are tightening up I would keep the extension for at the end ,with a METV you will be allowed back you are not getting 60 day exemptions but a 60 day visa,you will have to do a boarder run after the extension anyway.

@Gamalier *******
They are tightening up on boarder runs and 60 day exemptions, with a 6 month 60 day tourist visa you are guaranteed to get back into Thailand.
