It's a very straightforward, easy, online application. I honestly don't even see how an agent could help unless you don't really qualify

Stuart Hansen ya Stu, you really don't have a clue about LTR mate.

Stuart Hansen lol, if you qualified for an LTR visa, you most certainly wouldn't be using an agent or doing annual visa renewals
Todd *********
Stuart Hansen It's insanely expensive for agents to assist LTR. But the process is generally so easy, it would be pointless to use one

why tax at 2900? The .25% is also taxed. 15,000 baht per year every year for as long as you stay for making a single transaction? obviously worth the 'headache' (there actually is no headache at all), unless you hate your own money. Better still, leave the money where u can get high interest and pay an agent. Get rid of ALL the headaches

Now you understand why agents are a booming business. I get 7.75% currently in Mexico on govt backed deposits. Gives me the equivalent of 56,000 baht after tax withholding. More than covers the 15k baht agent fee for renewal. I don't need an agent anymore, but it's a smart move financially

I would try to reach them by phone. They will absolutely auto-reject the application in 14 days and keep the fee

Meanwhile you keep applying from outside the country. And the rest of us will keep applying from inside. 🍻
