What are the current options for obtaining a marriage visa or a longer stay in Thailand if I can't show 400,000 Baht?

So where's the threshold? Ten years together? Thai women are incredibly patient waiting for the goose to lay the golden egg. I think you'll find there's more scam marriages in these situations than genuine. I'm happy to remain single and live with my lady. It's no hardship for me to go once a year to immigration to extend my stay

You do realise just about every country in the world operates similar systems? How many scam marriages would there be in Thailand if the government just threw open the doors to anyone married to a Thai? I wish other countries would adopt the "check in" every year to make sure couples were still actually married and living together

What are the tax implications for Australians living in Thailand on a Non O retirement visa?

Andy ************

@Richard *******

As far as Australian investors are concerned it most definitely is! No negative gearing, no dividend imputation, no tax relief on capital expenditure, no discounted CGT. Thai Taxation is cr*p

What should I do if I missed my 90-day reporting deadline for my dtv visa in Thailand?

@Luit ****************

You need to talk to the estimated 50% of non-O retirees who pay bribes via an agent to get their extensions if you're concerned about people not obeying the laws! And whilst you're about it, talk to those who illegally buy "replica" designer merchandise from MBK. And don't forget those who ride motorcycles without a licence or helmet! 😂😂

@Rory ********

That's nothing to do with a 90-day report. That's 180 days, not 90 😂😂
