interesting. What visa are they getting that runs 15 months? 🤔
Michael ******
Yeah, they market them as 15 month because they bring you in on a 60 day, then do the paperwork for the real visa, extend 30, then move to the year long visa.

You can do the year long language visa for 2 years, learn thai, then, japanese/english/chinese. However, if you go to university you can get 5 years. As others mentioned they will test your thai and you can not use english if you are already NES. Elite privilege visa is another option or just do the dtv. Its a 5 year visa.

If you plan on staying in Thailand long term you should definitely take a Thai class either way. Its like a whole new country once you can speak a good amount of Thai. Good luck

use it all the time. Your "10%" theory is demonstrably false. Costs 1.50 pound to transfer a million and a half with an exchange rate close that, if not equal to, in person cash exchange. I suggest you put on your helmet, have some extra crayons at breakfast for confidence, and the try growing up a bit. 🤠

Waaaaaaait, how many entrys did you have in your old passport?
Michael ******
You have a picture of yourself from that day?
Michael ******
You should always have it. When it comes to anything thai govenment use the better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it rule. That said the nice ladys that check the documents before you get your second ticket have justbasked me where I am staying and written it for me in thai. Never needed tm30. American Passport.
