Zero confusion - 90 days ( wait ! ) means 90 days ..

Ummm , it's on the notification insert .

It always just takes one f wit , with no idea , hence laughing emoji ( idiot ) again standard practise when you have multiple pieces of tech , but of course not EVERY person will be questioned , neither is EVERY person who is doing something questionable or illegal for that matter as that would be impossible ..

It's pretty obvious the reasoning .

Have been questioned yes , an IT bag 2 lap tops and some phones , it's not uncommon to be asked , could be working illegally , or carrying out other activities that are illegal .

Reasonable questions , just have the correct answers .

Come in on your 30 day , and if you are coming to Hua Hin , I can certainly reccomend, and good immigration office also here .

Assuming you are looking for a longer Visa .

@Arely ***********

easy to say " avoid ATMs " difficult in practise in a cash economy .

Your 800k will most probably be okey , it's a good system here , and my world standards they are doing alright , however in the sums for this transaction you need to consider what the actual cost is , bcoz it's a wasted resource sitting there

You also need to consider that via any reasonable measure the Baht is way too high , and has been for quite a while , this will correct at some point as there will be no other way .

But , you ask a good question , no one can say in absolutes , and I'd take a holistic approach when looking at this Visa , these are wonderful for the banks , free usage of a giant long term pool , just as insurance works .

Sounds wayyy too hard to me , and expensive extension .

Laos by the way is an incredible place , not doing that stuff though . Anyhow you got it ! Glad my days of doing Visa runs are long gone .

Thanks for your input Sam , like a mirror I will look into it . The false identity will not assist you , I'm giving you some VERY good and obvious advice .

Enjoy your day , but don't take it out on me that you don't like what is an honest answer .

Good luck with your travels , but improve your understanding would be my advice .

No means No ..

And frankly anyone stupid enough to make a declaration on a public forum that they are ' breaking the law ' does not deserve a Visa , nor do they have even a remote understanding of the culture , and should consider another country .

All that being said , with even just a little consideration and with your head down , and " under the radar " , who knows what's going on out there ?

But yes you need 800 k in a Thai bank , and just leave it or 65 k per month International income minimum, it can be higher , it CANNOT as in never , be lower .

WISE ..the ONLY sensible option that is available at this point ,no question .
