@Kajek ******

nicely done! Thanks for sharing. did you apply in your home country before flying to Hanoi? Or you flew to Hanoi then applied? How long you have to prepare to stay in Hanoi to get all these done?

@Ian ****

does this IO have any impact on next trip? If another officer takes it up the next trip, it's brand new slate or there is some form of record? Even if there's record, can you then proof that you are genuine tourist?

@Marcus *********

I meant you just need to show proof of funds in bank account 800k THBbut you do not need to pay for the visa other than the processing fees. Is my understanding not correct?

@Av *********

isn't retirement visa free

@Polat ******

so you said you went Bangkok bank but rejected. So you went back to immigration and ask for another letter to Kbank?

@Brandon ***********

what is this work extension? I have a work permit for 6 years now, and a Non-B. So they said have to cancel work permit, which in turns cancels the visa. So are they actually meaning to cancel the WP?

My question is,

1) if it is the WP they are cancelling, Why do I need to be present to cancel the WP anyway, don't some companies do it unscrupulously by cancelling their employees' WP as and when they like?

2) If it is the Visa they are cancelling, why cancel at all in the first place when there's an expiry date 31 August?

@Ozan ******

just trying to under why cancel something that will naturally expire. There is an expiry date.

@Jordan ****

does the bank close your account if you are inactive and do not return to Thailand in awhile? How long was your longest non return

How about credit card? Do you cancel them or leave them active? But if active, you do have to pay the annual fee right?

@Jesper ******
