Graham Seal I know the 60 day visa exemption + 30 day extension encourages farang/Thai snow bird couples to spend a lot more time and money in the provinces.

Yes they can get visas but it’s even easier to cut trips shorter.

SunnyFlamingo559 I’m pretty sure it’s a visa overstay/working illegally problem.

Hari BO I believe he’s also eligible for a 60 day family visit extension.

@Jay ******

Any information on Thai passport line wait times?

@Donald *********

Solution…go through the Thai passport line with your wife!

👍

@Michael ******

I would argue that would depend on the spouse.

🤣😂🤣

Big fan of Google voice…I use it a lot for 2FA and calling back to the US.

I'm a retired SNCO and my Thai wife has lived in the states for 37 years...there're ZERO legal/acceptance problems if you follow the rules but sadly obtaining the visa will be slowed because of other's fraud.

In fact, your most frequent problem will be people trying to invite themselves to your home for an authentic Thai dinner. Don't listen to these hysterical partisans.

BTW...best of luck to you and your wife. Hope you two become a very close team and build a happy family!

@Jenny *****

Please take your hysterical nonsense elsewhere....there's no problems for law abiding people from any country. And please don't respond with any of the fake news by omission stories...we're aware of how it's fabricated.

My wife's home is near Nong Khai....been to Laos a few times and would return again regularly for shopping day trips but just not worth the visa hassle. Shame the little Lao people pay for this petty corruption.
