@James *******

oh ok, thanks for the clarification

@James *******

Does one not have to apply for the extension of stay 1 month before the actual visa expires? Then get the “under consideration” inked in first, later pick up the new extension of stay shortly before the present visa expires

@Lloyd *******

Thx

Try it in a branch or shopping mall, where foreigners are seen frequently. Those bank officers have more experience.

You can claim that you want to buy a property and need the account to transfer funds from abroad. A purchase contract would help to confirm that story, whereas it doesn’t need to be genuine.

I set up a company Ltd 1 MTHB for 25k, 2 MTHB add no more than 2-3k..

Thanks again Pal...

@Benjamin *****

Thanks for your prompt reply.

Yes, but the financial requirements are not the issue here.

It’s rather that my child doesn’t live with me anymore which is a K.O. for another extension of stay at least if one applies without bribing the local immigration officers.

And as I have high moral standards and couldn’t live with myself, I would prefer to avoid such a bribery...

Hahaha. As I said, childish.

And obviously suffering from over-compensation of complexes as mentally balanced people don’t need to state their opinion above of those other people in an arrogant way like this.

If I would be egocentric and self-overwhelmed like you, I could tell you now what my Thai-expertise is and where it comes from. But I don’t need that as I am confident enough without doing so.

@Karim **************

You obviously don’t understand the true nature of Thai personality.

Thais act and speak emotionally, not rationally. Hence, all people with a fairly white skin are Farangs for them and they won’t check their nationality first before calling them this or that word. This cannot be disputed because it’s fact haha (what a childish way to argue).

@Karim **************

That’s not correct.

The word „Farang“ in Thailand came up in Thailand (nowhere else) due to the inability of Thais to pronounce the word francais. The French were the first to set foot into Thailand. Thais called them farangsai because they can’t pronounce 2 consonants (f + r) without a vocal in between. After that, they developed a shortcut, leaving the last syllable behind.

The word here in Thailand clearly refers to caucasians, no blacks, no asian foreigners, no arabs or any other race.
