Will the Thai 60-Day Tourist eVisa be reduced to 30 days? How far in advance can I apply?
Roger **********
Get a visa before traveling. Check the website of your nearest Thailand embassy or consulate around 3 or 2 months before travel.

That means you will get the validity of the visa, the number of days you can stay in Thailand as well as the general and local requirements to submit as part of you submission on-line.

How does the new Wise option for international money transfers affect immigration requirements in Thailand?
Roger **********
Mark Briggs consider that it may be related to the visa and it might also relate to filing the income tax return in Thailand, as one is taxable resident after 180 calendar days in Thailand in a year

Can you enter Thailand with a one-way ticket, or do you need a confirmed return flight?
Roger **********
The regulation includes that you must have a return or onward ticket. The airline at check-in could ask (and refuse boarding), immigration in Thailand can request it or none of the above.

Should you change your bank branch after moving within Thailand?
Roger **********
James Mitchell that may be true. But the question was about going into a bank and changing branches and not just regarding ATMs.

Anyway, have 1 bank account in Bangkok for 20yrs and another in Khon Kaen (my home) for 29 years.
