For retirement O - if you use an agent, they can satisfy this requirement as part of their service (for an additional fee of course but rather than locking up that much money, it may be worth it).

@Steve *******

Yes because we all know how easy it is to get clear instructions and get answers to simple questions when you don't speak Thai.

It's a matter of paying to go the simple route and having everything done for you. Besides all the work for the visa, they can also open the bank account and bypass the 800k requirement as part of the service.

Depends if it's worth it for you.

Another clear response.

I guess that means that the re -entry stamp trumps the 2 areas where it states that a re-entry permit is required and I'm supposed to know that.

Too difficult to provide a simple response to that effect.

After all we're all Thai immigration lawyers in this group so no need to provide a useful answer.

Thank you.

I'm seeing printed in 2 places on his stamps - "To keep your stay permit re-entry permit must be made before leaving Thailand"

Doesn't that indicate that a re-entry permit needs to be made before departing Thailand?

Seems like the one's saying it not 'The Buck Stops Here' Biden's doing must watch a helluva lot of CNN.

They probably are on their 5th booster shot waiting for that virus to go away too.

The incapable intellect is astounding after do many missteps that led us all here.

BTW - we all hope Hunter Biden got a big bonus to have the US turn its back on the Ukrainian people.

Let's go Brandon.

We couldn't have done it without you!

Probably wise to leave out any sentences that include any kind of reference to 'work'.
