Chiang Rai in the north and Hua Hin south of Bangkok.

If you look at Ellie's response to you again, Ellie states: " You still need to cancel your extension at the ' issued ' immigration office. " Hope this helps.

Best of luck.

Keep your boarding pass with your passport. They sometimes ask for it. Rarely do they ask for an onward ticket, 20,000฿ equivalence in cash, or proof of accommodation, but it is best to cover all the bases.

Thank you for the great information. It will help considerably when planning my next trip within SE Asia.

Never said it was perfect. There is a learning curve with everything in life. That being said, I adressed my remarks to Garry . Garry is perfectly capable of speaking for himself. As for you...FY and FO. Sorry you are living such a miserable life.

Hi Garry. Been here since 2005. I have 2 houses with my girlfriend of 10.5 years and I am well-versed in the ins and outs of purchasing/building homes as well as owning a business together.

It is true....all that glitters is not gold, but occasionally one finds a gem in the rough. My wife has a great family including 3 lovely sisters and a no nonsense brother and pragmatic father.

But, that being said, thanks for your concern for all of us on this site. Have a great day. Thanks for your well wishes. Hope everything stays spectacular for you and your beautiful wife.

Not if you are American and use the Treaty of Amity to set up a legitimate company. Can be owned 100%. Requires no Thai partner.

If you are an American Citizen, look up Treaty of Amity. An American can own a business 100% and "Not" need a Thai business partner. There is a monetary requirement of 2+ million baht plus other stipulations.

As others have pointed out, you do need to have close personal contact with the Thai companies you plan on doing business with. Once again, view the Treaty of Amity. If you are not American, disregard this response.
