Let the guy take as much time off work as needed to look after his dog. You are not obligated to pay anything to him if he chooses to take time off work!

do you understand how the biometrics work? When the OP comes back he will need to supply fingerprints.. do you understand that the fingerprints are unique and all details relating to such finger printing checking will auto-populate on the IO's system. (also Immigration do not care how long the line is by the way).. So, if multiple 'passports' appear, of course they will take a look, and make sure it is not suspicious. Do you not think 'criminals' have tried this before? Recently some-one from UK I think it was tried to get back into Thailand after 15 years on a new passport (being a wanted person in Thai for 15 years) and got arrested! Sorry, but I disagree totally with your statement.

get a proper visa

@Lynn ******

you thought about creating a new thread for your query?

Did you ask the officer?

I am sure you meant to say 'tia - or thanks' at the end.. 🙄

@Graham *****

100% correct and sound advice... I am myself about to do exactly that.

@Sue *********

what a naive comment! People are putting in the correct dates… seems a current glitch in the system.

@Nan ****************

exact same error I received last month. I tried 2nd time with the ‘correct’ dates but it was rejected again, same reason as what you are getting. Assume a glitch in system.

I went to IO for the 90 day reporting and they didnt care about the error.

I can only try again online again next time 🤷🏽‍♂️
