, in that room they check the history of the foreigners who have too many stamps on the passports but with no visa.

@Ma***

, when we were standing in front of the Immigration counter like everyone else, they told us to go to the room on the left so the officers there could screen our passports. I saw some people who spoke Mandarin and some people who looked like Indians. They were told to go to this room too.

@Ma***

, they let us meet their “Hua Na” who is their manager or supervisor whom I call “head of the department”. She interviewed and took the photo of the foreigner in a friendly manner. It was the people at the front line who warned us to get a proper visa for my guest.

@Ma***

, you are lucky. The foreigner I went with entered from Laos via Nong Khai was asked and led to the head of department for an interview, and they allowed the entry. Funnier than that was when the foreigner went out of Thailand via Nakhon Phanom, they asked why so many times within a year and charged 200 Baht. When the foreigner went back to Thailand via Nakhon Phanom with a Thai who took care of all the expenses, they didn’t question.

I think you need to go to the Immigration Office and tell them all this. They’ll tell you what to do.

If nothing can be done, go to one of the borders and go back to have 30 days on your passport, then do again in September, and you will fly out in October as planned.

I love it if it happens. They “live” here and they spend money. People under 50 mostly cannot afford the elite visa. They live in Thailand without working so they can’t have work permits.

I don’t like that 90-day report, too.

, to be fast, make photocopy of your passport pages and bring some of your ID photos too. They need a photo on your application.

For land crossing, no one has ever asked me for my onwards ticket 👍

Nanthakumar, thanks for the information. Now I know why farangs never let anyone keep their passports.
