Savings is the easiest, who said fixed deposit offers better interest rates in Thailand.

What I did was asked immigration on my 90 day report , just before my visa extension application, are there any changes to the criteria for my visa application from last year answer was no.

Sounds old mate whose wife and children live in BKK will be limited to 2 trips a year instead of 5.

@Rob *********

thought Embassies looked after their people.

@Tod ********

well they (immigration) said when you apply bring both , so I obviously will, agree can't see the reason, but it's Thailand.

Plus just completed my next 12 month application for visa extension and both passports required by immigration.

I have a friend who works in NZ and has been coming here for about 7 years visiting about 3-4 times a year for 3 weeks each time has not had any problems at border as yet.

My passport was due to expire 17 Dec 2025 with marriage visa due 17 Nov 2025 for extension. Got new passport early Sep 2025 took it to immigration on my 90 day check, they took it away stamped it with my current extension ans said she you in Oct for visa extension but please bring both.passport. so nearly ready to go back just need some pics.

@George ********

well my wife does all that, when we get to immigration they tell her what is wrong with items like the pics and she sends to them via an app.

Yep do ours every year, passport, letter from Amphur saying we are married, pics taken beside house number plus inside, letterftom embassy showing overseas income, map how to get from immigration to our place, plus house book., they are pretty good at immigration if something forgotten or like last time not enough pics just send to them by line.
