thanks for the experiential info, eases the mind somewhat, but I seem to have something come up in life every twenty minutes these days to test my Faith LOL. I'm letting go.

@Tod ********

I went Into the immigration talk to a person there who said that I have nothing to worry about and I can just use it in next time I go out and come back in I just explain it to the officer what happened

What if they don’t do anything- visa still good when I come back?

So I’ll drop the baggage off and head to Krabi immigration. I was going on another exit in April. I love traveling lol

Thank you so much Tod- you are a saint and I am truely amazed at your patience with everyone, your knowledge and constancy! Bravo 👑

one other question- can I come in and out more than two times?

(still figuring out, testing out the waters to stay more "permanent" in the future when I retire)

okay- that's fine. If I understand correctly when I come back from my first trip out, I can extend 30 days for a fee and also after my second trip, again for a fee. That will give me plenty of days to make my booked flight? (Just gotta say this is such a great helpful site- what would we do without it! Great service guys!)

oh crap- I guess I'll have to change my return flight!😢😣. Or can I extend again for 30 days? at the end of 6 months? My exit was planned for May 27...

Here is what I found on the Thai consulate webpage in Vancouver; “Multiple-Entry (METV):

A copy of a bank statement showing a deposit of the amount equal to no less than 200,000 (Baht) per person or 400,000 (Baht) per family
