Go to SuperRichTH on the ground floor and change as much as you want it’s the best rate you will get anywhere in Thailand so you won’t lose out regardless of how much you change, just be careful carrying lots of cash about 🙏

@Edna ******

The information in my response is 100% correct so why don’t you read replies before you enter a totally irrelevant answer… derrrr 🙄

@Joanna **************

Enjoy the Kingdom as I have for the last 20 years 👍

30 day’s automatic with a British passport for both you and your daughter for each time you enter Thailand by air.

Thailand immigration will welcome you with a smile 🙏

@Todd ********

The initial OA visa is for 90 days and the following retirement visa is for 12 months total 15 months and the cost is around 30,000 baht which includes bank account and limited insurance

Never tried it but know plenty people who have had no issues using it 🤔

@Andrew ******

interesting, maybe th the rules have changed as I know on a previous occasion a relative was refused to let her daughter travel with a Thai passport no mention of a birth certificate, resulting in a mad dash back to the airport in her home city to get the daughters Thai passport and the reason was No entry Stamp, but the birth certificate does make sense in this situation 👍

She will need to leave Thailand on her Thai passport as she will have no entry stamp on her new British passport then if you want to she can return on either up to you.

The British Embassy has guidelines on registration for obtaining a British passport and it is fairly straightforward regardless of age, providing she qualifies 👍

The Thai Immigration authorities nationwide have instructions to tighten up on visa requirements due to the international coverage of the unfortunate German gentleman recently murdered in Pattaya district.

I visited my local immigration office yesterday and overheard the head immigration officer (translated by my Thai wife) there telling his officers that they had to scrutinise every application and requirements to the letter and reject anything that was not in order 😱

Broadcasting the fact you have access to 1.6 million baht+ on a Facebook forum is not such a sensible idea in the light of recent events in Pattaya….just saying 🤔

@Shar ******

Do not risk saying I will buy a bus/train ticket out of Thailand when your visa expires- IT does NOT work anymore the immigration and airline staff are not stupid !

But a ticket on Expedia and use the 24 hr option to cancel , that way you have a proof of a ticket out of Thailand and it costs you nothing to cancel it 👍
