Will my friend be allowed to re-enter Thailand after multiple visa-exempt entries?

Brown ********

hes well within the rules but apparently the poipet immigration are turning people away even when they are within the rules and the fact hes been there on 2 visa exempt stamps and 1 land crossing already he maybe in the shi+ so maybe he should try another border to be safe

Do I need to submit a TM30 report if I return to the same address in Thailand after a day trip to Laos?

Brown ********

@Adelina ********

yep. I was misinformed by my property manager when I went to do 90 days reporting and the immigration slammed me with a 1600 baht fine. It's just a rule to extort money from farang as far as I'm concerned

How should I specify the proposed duration of stay on my tourist visa application if I plan to switch to a retirement visa later?

@Lee ******

then your safest bet is to just buy one of those flight itinerarues online and state your departure date as the same. Safer bet because while visa agents can get you retirement visas without the 800k, it's still the requirement

@Lee ******

it is usually a requirement to show an itinerary in and out. There are sights online where you can pay a small amount of money to issue you with a flight you are not going to take. This should work ok

I just got a 60 day despite my flights being 150 days apart. I simply explained I was going to do the 30 day extension and 2 border runs to Cambodia and they accepted it. So I think if you submitted your intention to convert to a retirement visa they may accept this. The only issue might be requiring 800k bank statement

unfortunately landlords aren't the ones who cop the actual fine even though immigration say it's the landlord's responsibility. It's a rule based to scam people if you ask me. If it was legit they'd send a fine to the landlord as apposed to taking money from the tenant and telling them to get reimbursed by the landlord
