How many times can a visa-exempt 30-day stay be renewed in Thailand, and does having a course with a Thai institution help with extensions?

Terry ********

@Stuart ********

they must have changed it because I’m pretty sure it used to be only 15.

Terry ********

You only get one extension on a 30 day visa exempt entry. I think it’s only for 15 days. If you get a 60 day tourist visa, the extension is 30 days.

Can I apply for the Elite family excursion visa in Thailand with a previous 3-day overstay?

Terry ********

technically speaking it does not remain their money. It becomes the bank’s money. The bank then owes the amount to them. In a financial crisis, they might not get the money back. If you doubt me, study what happened in Cyprus.

Is vaping legal in Thailand?

Terry ********

However you want to interpret it, it’s a stupid law. Vaping is much less destructive to your health than the cigarettes that are completely legal.

Is it mandatory to have someone stay with you overnight in a Thai hospital, especially if you don't know anyone?

Terry ********

A friend who was in and out of the hospital had to have someone stay with him because of his condition but it wasn’t a requirement by the hospital. He paid people that do that kind of thing 1000 baht a day/night.

How can I meet the Thai retirement visa requirement of a 65,000 THB monthly pension deposit?

Terry ********

@Dave *********

that’s good. I just know that I used to do an ACH transfer from my US bank to the New York branch of Bangkok Bank and it would show up at my branch in Thailand. Then, one day my bank told me I couldn’t do that anymore. Maybe it was just my bank or just ACH transfers.
