I would think that Thai immigration considers border bounce or border run as leaving the country and returning either the same day or 1 or 2 days later. He's staying away for 14 days and it crosses over 2 years. It really depends very much on his travel history imo for immigration to determine if he is really legit for the tourist visa.

If you don't have a history of going to and leaving Thailand frequently, then there's nothing to worry about.

If you're gonna be doing this frequently, get a visa (whichever is applicable) and pay for multiple entries.

he's staying out of Thailand for 14 days and that isn't meaningful amount of time?? 🙄🫣

use wise to transfer. Cheapest method I know.

I see. I had an expat tell me that the banks freeze accounts of expats who couldn't be bothered to verify their accounts after multiple months of reminders

@Floyd *****

you said he is a US citizen now and wants to apply for Thai citizenship so that means he gave up his Thai citizenship. Like most countries, it's almost impossible for old people to get pr, worse still citizenship.

@Floyd *****

actually if you look from the other side it makes perfect sense. The Thai government most likely doesn't want to "maintain" an additional elderly person in their population who has not "contributed economically" to the country, so they're refusing him.

On a different note, would appreciate if you can clarify if your bank account was frozen by Bangkok bank because you didn't verify your account when they asked for verification months ago and then had your account frozen?

I wrote several responses yesterday to Joe and Bent Sennenwaldt explaining in detail the importance of getting a Thai will as Denmark's laws wouldn't affect or dictate what happens to assets in Thailand. There was no crass language or tone in our replies. Yet some ahole moderator found it fit to remove our posts just because he didn't like them. The information contained in those posts were helpful to remove doubt - I would say more helpful than the remaining posts here. Can the moderator who removed those posts man up and comment on why you removed them or were you just upset that you couldn't jerk off?

I have replied previously. No point repeating. Your children can try when that day happens 👍🙏
