Inaccurate info from you there. If you said it's very difficult to live in Thailand for a long time on what you refer to as "short term stays" that would be accurate.

As far as who is or is not a tourist; that's been proven countless times on here & you are trolling as technically any person with a tourist visa is a tourist - end of story.

Using the imperative at the end as if you are ordering the guy is not appropriate either.

I think you normally post better than this Brandon. ;)

@Edna ******

It's more accurate here than the embassy websites usually, actually, as they don't update the websites to reflect changes in a timely manner - to put it mildly.

@Richard ********

Yeah, there's nothing confusing about anything to do with Thailand. I guess we should just shut this page down as it's not even needed at all... lol...

@Nigel ********

Well played ;)

Off topic...

Try getting onto the moon..?

Tuk tuk from hotel to border, then tuk tuk on the other side. That would normally be fastest, unless you pay for a whole taxi van on the other side to save maybe 15 minutes.

If you leave your hotel at 6.30am you could just use the public bus on the other side. But depends where you want to get to exactly, of course.

Things change. Officers in charge change. Some higher ups like to make it difficult just because they can. Sometimes it's more about internal politics within immigration & government happenings, scandals, news related events, etc. A lot of it is about appearances. It's all b.s. but it's good to get latest reports to know what current requirements are. I'll be avoiding that crossing until the ridiculous 3 proofs are in the bin.
