okay. 👌

The way your original post is written it’s difficult to understand what money, for what purpose. Your post didn’t say ‘pay’ so I think there’s some confusion. 🤷‍♂️

Why do officials in Laos charge money when exiting the country?

Brian *********

@Terry *******

the question was not asked clearly and I think it’s about having the 20k baht on entry requirement, not that they’re being asked to pay for entry (as a bribe or whatever).

Is it possible for an expat to live in a house on a Thai army base and successfully file a TM30?

Brian *********

@Philip ******

that was my first consideration but that immigration office is not local to me presently and there aren’t too many situations this group hasn’t seen. So, figured I’d give it a shot.

I’m trying to work with the home owners now to help our mutual understanding. Best effort to avoid any problems. 👍

Thanks for chiming in.

@Ray *******

I appreciate people attempting to help. However, the vast majority of suggestions did not answer the question asked. They gave suggestions that mostly were not an appropriate solution, they were (as already stated by someone else) attempting to cheat the system. Not interested.

Please go back to the hole you came from.

WTF does that even mean?

So, just don't ask questions, really? Don't use this thing, you are using, to ask questions, it's entire reason to exist, really?

How about we try, If you don't have anything useful to contribute, don't?

Can my Thai wife open a joint bank account with me in Thailand as an expat?

@CjandBrigitte *********

guess this is subjective. I had no problems at all getting a Bangkok bank account on the first try. Provide what they asked, was pretty simple. 👌

@Marianne *******

my present visa can’t be extended and ends in 4ish months wherein by that time an array of possibilities are in play. So I’m only trying to answer one specific concern. Can I do this and not induce potential problems. I have no interest in doing anything but what I’m supposed to do, legally. 👌

thank you for your objectivity.

However, I’m afraid the people in question don’t fully understand all implications either and why I’m asking. Maybe this scenario has been seen before. 🤷‍♂️
