Perhaps others can advise about CM office specifically but usually immigration don’t care “when” you file a new TM30, just that you have an up to date one filed.
**as everything here that could be office dependent**
As I said. Get a CS account. Save yourself the $22. I’m not sure what your “international atm” fee are but my guess is that it may be bank charges that your bank levies for using an international ATM above and beyond the spread they would use for the interbank rate for converting the money. Sounds like you need a new bank.
I love your assumption that I can’t afford to pull out 100k. You know nothing about me. I don’t want you knowing anything about me either. You’re clearly a moron wanting to stir up shit.
Your average US citizen here is probably pulling out 600-900 USD from an ATM. Without a CS account they get charged $7.50.
Doing the same using your method costs them $6
Not sure there’s too many that’ll be wanting to pull out 100k baht per time but what would the saving be over the ATM rate (assuming they don’t opt for the ridiculous instant conversion option) versus MARKET RATE. The price of a few beers?
That’s an amazing way to save $1.50 and limiting yourself to one bank (possibly only select branches) and only being able to get cash when the banks are open. Thank you for sharing.
If you want to save $7.50 and no limit to time or bank being used get a Charles Schwab account and use an ATM. They’ll refund the ATM fee. Thank me later.
