Never been asked for flight details in Oz. Melbourne.

In fact they tell you not to book until the visa is issued.

$55 for a TR 60 days single.

Cannot see the value in metv if moving around LOS.

Have been asked by Thai Airways wrt visa at departure.

Never in all my years have i been asked regards funds at arrival, or outgoing flight.

(I always have an exit flight and just revise the date. Alternatively you can book and place on hold with Thai Airways, a flight, and it drops off the system if not paid by a set date).

Yes.

This is correct.

Thanks Tod.

Its a denial of extension.

Buy is actually a permission to take a further 7 days before leaving.

Hope that makes sense.

Its not a red mark against you.

Not sure regards Thai national holidays in December and close days?

Bkk.

If its local for you.

If you are in the back blocks.

Weigh the fine v the travel or inconvenience factor.

Nice polite forum too BTW.

Well impressed.

One out there seems to be a place for individuals to attack each other. LOL.

I had two passports and the desire to be here was growing HaHa.

I know it changed about 2015 then in 2017.

Ive taken the long term option now.

TR to O.

O to Retirement extension grant.

My understanding is.

You had 60 days

Extension of 30 days

You could apply for 7 days at 1900 baht.

And leave.

NO 30 days on a 30 days extend.

Why not stick your hand up and pay the 500 per day overstay.

Less hassle and its not a red mark against you .

They might even be nice because its Christmas lol.

Mine was 30 extension of the TR. Sixty day.

Ive had it before.

Just pedantics on the day.

Im on O pending retirement now.

So hopefully its all history.

2 waivers was the limit but that is changed now.

TR has no restrictions on the number of times.

Pay the fee and get. 60 days.

I was told at Jomtien that i had too many.

But that was one individual I/O flexing its muscles.

And said i had seven days to leave.

But did not stamp on the passport such.

Sadly no recourse without stuffing things up.
