Good is not free... I use Surfshark VPN it was around £45 for 25 or 26 months. Less than £2/month.

old data.. 7.6% in 2022 and before it was more than 11% so tourism is a significant part of Thailand's GDP.... Since the COVID few hundred businesses closed and are much more homeless than before...

One day isn't a problem. Pay 500 baht. It happened to me a few years ago. I booked the slow boat tour from Chiang Mai but i forget this is the tour which stops at the Thai side for one day... So we crossed the border the next day when my visa had already expired just one day. I apologize and explained what happened. I get the overstay stamp in my passport. And 10 days later I came back into Thailand without a problem and no problem since even I visited Thailand 7 or 8 times in the past 5 years.

Lazada or Shopee 🤣😂

I guess this message is for her and not for me. I'm only 40 I don't need a retirement visa yet 😉

@Mark *******

the letter from the school for holiday isn't a thing... I never heard anyone's need this and not even my school mentioned this at all... Many of my classmates went on a "holiday" and even left the country and came back) I'm on ED visa myself... So i really want to know where you get this information... 🤔

@Sharon ******

I'm glad to hear that. Good luck!

@Sharon ******

Don't give up I'm sure that's not right at all. Check AXA Thailand they had great offers, especially for people who want to retire. Good luck

@Sharon ******

I'm sure that's not right at all. Even the medical care for foreigners isn't cheap here in Thailand, but the insurance is definitely not that high. Check AXA Thailand and get a quote... I'm sure they have a much better offer around 40-50k baht/year not stupid $900/month... Many people retire here at your age or even older and they don't even spend that much money on just living per month. Look around I'm sure you will find a better offer.
