Thailand wants tourists not people that try to circumvent the system by keep coming to Thailand when they are clearly not tourists . Immigration must wonder why these people have no life in their own country … why this obsession with keep coming to Thailand again and again ?

If you want to stay here get the right visa … tourists come for a holiday then go home at the end of. Same with many countries

Just remember whatever requirements they say you want , in the end it’s up to the person who deals with your application what they ask you for . Doing it yourself is cheap but if they ask you for something random you don’t have you will likely have to go away and start it all again on another day . That’s why many , me included , employ an agent ( they aren’t cheap though it’s a case of how much you value your time ) to “smooth out” any problems . Last year they came up with something totally bizarre with me but the agent sorted what would have been an impossible request for me to solve . So the money was worth it .

Then again you might fly through in 1 hour with no problems . Like everything in Thailand it’s very random and down to your luck on the day

true but I’ve already been here 4 years it’s just that today I’ve moved to a new condo and the owner has sent a TM30 today . I was just concerned that I might need to do something too . My 90 days is not due until end of June

no idea why you’re so hostile . My post was about the £ to THB rate nothing else . I live in Thailand so it concerns me .

if you look at a graph of the last 25 years you will see that mostly the rate for the £ now at 44.5 is less than at all times 2000-2016 then the Brexit disaster crashed the pound to around the levels it is now , briefly for a couple of years the rate was lower 2019-2020 then up and down around the 41-46 level since .

In conclusion since 2000 the £ rate is lower now than at most years , the baht is rarely weak and only briefly even then

Very briefly yesterday . Already dropped back . Bad economy earthquake so many problems but nothing can ever hurt the Thai Baht … why they call it Teflon Thailand
