Can I work part-time on a Retirement Visa in Thailand?

Jorge ****

@Dianne *******

illegal in LOS without a work permit, and quite impossible as the visa sticker clearly says "employment prohibited" (even if unpaid). Their rules, not ours.

Can I extend my marriage visa in Thailand until May if my passport expires in May?

Jorge ****

Renewing the passport is inevitable. Get it done before this September, that way you can get the full one year extension.

Try Ajarn-dot-com or Dave's ESL Cafe website. Can also make a resume, dress like an Eglish teacher, and visit all the Schools asking to see the English dept manager. It works!

Why is the process for foreigners to move to Thailand so cumbersome?

Jorge ****

I know a Canadian who applied and waited for several *years* before he was allowed to live and legally *work* in the US. I've met many expats in LOS who simply found an employer, got a contract, Non-B visa, and work permit (with a salary to boot!). Took them but a few weeks. Hundreds of expats have done it. Really, it's easy.

I"ve entered LOS *numerous* times in the last four decades+, and have never been asked for posession of funds, visas, or onward tickets, but have seen the below notice very often as well, specially in land crossings (note the last section):

What should I do if my retirement visa has expired after leaving Thailand without a re-entry permit?

Jorge ****

Sorry, but it is now too late and no one can help. This is the exact reason why take the time to visit an immigration office and ask the question there.

Why trust an entity who has no responsibility on your legal status? Are they going to fix it? Are they going to refund you losses or mitigate your trouble?
