As the saying goes you only have one chance to make a good first impression 😉

@Sue *********

it sounds like they are going to have a retirement visa soon but who really knows

Sounds like a big opportunity for Vietnam better services and lower costs without the constant bribery and scams for foreigners.

@Alan ****

90% of Thai don't have any savings and 80% are in perpetual debt so they are always dead broke.

@Brandon ***********

there lies the problem, a government agency only excepting cash is scandalous.

@Benjamin ********

agreed, just there seems to be more places struggling for sellers. I have family in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine, Florida and Hawaii also Portugal and Maine and Florida also are struggling for sellers of course different reasons. Properties in Massachusetts were is live have increased 230% in 5 years and no shortage of buyers but plenty of work.

@Benjamin ********

no hate in reality, most countries are in trouble with property values plummeting. The state of Florida is seeing the same problem as in Thailand.

@Benjamin ********

"price already doubled " it's value is what someone pays and that's only if people are buying and the article says nobody's buying.

@Graham *****

again I spoke with a immigration officer because I live in South Boston I haven't looked at the e visa online. I will scroll through the e visa online when I get a chance I just mentioned what had been told to me awhile back and considering how fast things change in Thai immigration rules I'm not doubting what you have said.

@Graham *****

just going by what I was told, seems every immigration office, officers and embassies go off script
