Sorry. You're wrong. I lived in Thailand for a year () to get AWAY from the chaos created by the Dems in the US. You don't see that sh!t in Thailand. Everyone does their own thing instead of pushing craziness on everyone and creating division.

@Myron *********

Says the closet hater that sits on his liberal high horse and loves the currently divisived world that the liberals created.

I renewed my US passport in Bangkok. No problems.

*I chose to pick it when it was ready up rather than risk an issue with delivery.

Unless you keep a US (residential) address, most US banks will require you to close accounts and credit cards. I made the mistake of putting a mail service (US) address in the 'Residential' field in my banking profile (since I sold my home when I moved to Thailand). Their system flagged my account and they called me to say I needed a US residential address or I had to close my accounts. Best to use family/friend address to prevent this. If you're 'away' then credit cards might be able to sent to you but best to keep under the radar. US banks have gotten much stricter these days to prevent problems with the gov't.

Abdalah Errjaibi One last thing. Best to choose an outbound flight at least 31 days to be safe. To show you need 60 day visa *and not a 30 day visa.

@Abdalah *********

Yes.

@Abdalah *********

Yes. For visa, they want to know flight info for flight out of Thailand.

IF you do exit Thailand (*you don't have to use that flight) make sure your visa will still be valid when you return.

FYI - real (one way) tickets from BKK to DaNang are as cheap as $43(USD) or as cheap as $54(USD) to Saigon (Ho Chi Min City).

@Abdalah *********

Any flight out of Thailand before your visa expires. With 60 day visa, the flight out can be on Day 30 (or Day 15 or Day 59,etc..). *Make sure you don't lose the rest of your 60 day visa.

Flights to/from Vietnam are a cheap option or if you can plan your first side trip ahead of time, then no wasted tickets.

Vietnam is actually a cheap side trip even for just a few days.

@Deena *********

The problem is that these tickets expire.
