you seem to be confusing “ it’s never happened” with “it can never happen” if it’s law and I believe it is each and every port of entry can at any time change its policy. You appear to be now dragging in all sorts of nonsense about different ports and border runs etc to make your point. As I see it your point is all ports can ask but some don’t and never will. My point is all ports can ask and some do so I travel prepared to be asked. These are not opposing views that are mutually exclusive.

But as I’ve now said repeatedly ( almost as boring as your use of nuance) you appear to be very angry and have a need to be right. However being right is not quite good enough as I have to be wrong to satisfy your ego.

I pity your poor poor wife and all your long suffering friends.

look mate it’s Christmas Day and you are obviously too clever for me !! After all you can speak for 99% of the people in this group. Again I ask why are you so angry? If we were in a room together I suspect you would be shouting at me. All my post says is that there are three things you can be asked. I have been asked two of them so always ensure I could answer all three if asked. Some people in this group say that’s rubbish and no-one is ever asked and they base that on their experience of never being asked. The only fault I can find with my post is that I didn’t state my points of entry. I’ve entered via Phuket 11 times and Bangkok once in just over 2 years. My experience does not stretch back as far as yours but I’m talking about what is happening now in Phuket airport.

You appear to have a need to be the cleverest person in the room, take the title you are very very clever, you even use the word nuance ( glad you’ve stopped that now by the way)

May I leave you with a couple of thoughts :

1. You being right doesn’t mean I can’t be right also .

2. My post is directed at frequent travellers to Phuket and Bangkok who enter visa exempt, not other more obscure ports or land crossings of which I have no experience

3. Presenting as so angry is not a good look

4. If any one person who enters Thailand at any one of its many entry points has ever been asked the three questions then my post is factually correct

5. You need to perfect your understanding of English as I feel a lot of your anger and argument is driven by your basic lack of understanding of what my original post actually said.

6. Going back to thought one if it means so much to you , you can be right and I’m happy to say I’m wrong….but we all know the truth.

7. My post is intended to help and if it helps just one person then I’m happy , I’m just so sorry that my true and factual experiences offend you so much.

8. You are the cleverest person I have never met!!

One of the above thoughts is a lie…….

Now Fuck off and enjoy Christmas you sad sad man

we all have different experiences. Are you saying that the three proofs as you call them are not needed anywhere? Because I’m not actually saying that they are needed anywhere. I’m saying when you enter Thailand you can be refused entry for those three reasons so it’s my practise to be able to provide the “three proofs” that works for me , may not work for you. I still just don’t understand why you are so angry. You say some airports will never ask and there are no reports of them ever asking. So are you saying it’s only ever happened if it’s reported on Facebook forums? There is actually a world outside of Facebook. I am thankful, however, that you got through this post without using the word nuance.

Just for the avoidance of doubt , you are right in everything you say I, and everyone else who liked and commented positively , are totally wrong and appreciate how clever you are…..no need to respond just please , please take you meds and calm down 😂😂👍👍👍👍

@Chris *******

yes of course, all correct, but remember this post is aimed at the frequent visitor travelling without a visa entering under visa exemption 30 day stamp.

@Maxim **********

I said you are confused , take your pills and everything will look better to you. Think calm thoughts. Is nuance your favourite word? I think you are one of the stupid people I mentioned in my post. My post is not about what you will be asked or I will be asked it’s about what you or I could be asked. It does not matter where you cross the border the IO has the discretion to refuse entry and can use lack of funds , lack of onward travel or lack of address in Thailand as a lawful reason to do so, because they don’t use that discretion every where does not make my post factually incorrect. My post points to know it alls like your self. You’ve never been asked great! Good for you. You do realise you are like the woman who looks at a marching band and insists everyone is out of step with her son……..

You obviously understand the immigration laws better than I do, that’s why you don’t fly into BKK and spend an extra day travelling via Malaysia. If you must be right and have the last word then I admit it you are right and 99% of everyone else , including me , are totally wrong and we all bow down to your obvious superior intellect. I’m sorry but if I’d known nuance was your buzz word I would tried for a more nuanced post…….

Now can you post your next comment somewhere else ?

@Maxim **********

I think you are confused…….did you miss taking your medication today?

@Maxim **********

I enter via Phuket not Bangkok, but your post actually proved my point! you take steps to avoid Bangkok as you know people may be asked. Also if you are married to a Thai you have a visa and a set amount of money in the bank so you don’t need the three requirements. 😂😂😂😂😂

@Chris ********

but if it’s a first visit or long time since previous visit I doubt you would asked. Remember this post if not about what you are asked it’s about what you could be asked if the immigration officer wants to deny you entry,

@Chris ********

very good question I can only suggest the address and a letter of invitation. I’ve always had a rental agreement as I rent a house. Any suggestions anyone?

@Guy *****

are you disagreeing? That would make you stupid or dead as you appear to be breathing you must be alive! My deepest sympathies to your family to have to endure this heartbreak……
