Thought about 180 day rule.

Never had a problem with BKK Bank now 5 years joined with letter from immigration 2020, last year was asked to 5ake passport in and check signatures all done

And 180 days in country

Did mine and yea a bit of a battle the first time. Items I didn't totally understand were;

1. Had a 1yr non o though marriage , what can go wrong 1 yr to sort, then realized only a 90 day stamp.in passport.

2. Married 15 yrs in NZ got wedding cert translated before coming.

3. Went immigration got a list of what to do.

4. Went to Amphur for letter saying we are married, no Thai girl still single, wedding cert could be fake. If you married here no such problems.

5. Opened bank acc with letter from immigration, you already have one no problem.

6. Produced map on computer showing immigration to our place.

7. Had pics taken outside by house number and inside with change of shirt twice, wife told me to.

8 in my case had letter from Embassy showing NZ income.

9. Went to immigration gave them all the paperwork and they said they will visit, ringing wife on the day( only came on 1st application for extension)

10. About 3-4 weeks later they rand and turned up about midday looked at house, had food and drink spoke to our 2 referee's lucky one was villiage 2IC so knew her stuff when getting questioned.

11. About 3 weeks later visa extension approved Went Maha Sarakham and picked it up.

In our case only problem was our marriage cert and my passport so had company in Bangkok do all required and sent back to us all paperwork accepted by immigration.

Think it cost about 4 000 baht. Now for the last 4 years no problems and wife gets letter from.Amphur saying married.

If you stay in country more than 180 days in a year you are a considered a tax resident and taxed on foregin income if bought into Thailand. So you are required to submit a tax return. Yes there is a DTA with the UK and there are excemptions you can claim so probably no or very little tax to pay. Read the Thailand tax guide pretty easy to see what is required. I actually did my return last week and nil to pay, just using excemptions.

Think I would be looking for another Gym.

Why don't these people get the right bloody visa, no wonder authorities are looking at 30 day visa free. So why do you keep returning to Thailand maybe it's the weather.

Lynnette Munoz yep in for 60 days out for a time, maybe, back into Thailand.

Bit confused year 2, so how did you do year 1 surely exactly the same, check with immigration at the office you do the 90 day report if the same place.

Lynnette Munoz so encouraging visa runs.
