Why is using Internet Explorer the best option for my 90-day report in Thailand?

Anton **************

Unfortunately it’s like that for maaaany years

It’s probably the only website that works IE 10 and ⬇️ only 555

Can I change from a Special Tourist Visa to a Retirement Visa while in Thailand?

Anton **************

I don’t see any problems to get a normal visa here IF you can arrive.

The biggest problem for ppl with Retirement or ED visas who travelled abroad b4 all that lockdowns etc right now is to enter the kingdom

Do that and everything should be at least not harder than before

@Tim ******

ah okay, my point is just that TransferWise normally sends THB from their local company so the statement won’t show a foreign transaction

But in my case the source of funds was never asked as well

And how do you transfer the money using TransferWise to make it a foreign transfer btw?

Do I need to transfer my visa to a new passport before applying for a one-year extension?

Anton **************

@Lee *******

they should give you this letter with the new passport

If you’ve lost it, the embassy can give a new one

It’s better to get this letter before transferring the stamp

Do I need a round trip ticket to enter Thailand on a 60-day tourist visa?

Anton **************

@Dominic ***********

immigration wouldn’t ask but airline staff can

In such a case I usually could persuade the supervisor etc that I will get the visa n country or whatever

But one time this didn’t work when I was flying to ID from BKK so I had to buy return ticket to Thailand. Glad you never had any issues but many people did 😀

Anton **************

If you don’t have any Thai visa or have a tourist one, the airline may refuse boarding if you don’t have ticket out of TH

I would just buy any cheapest AirAsia flight to Kuala Lumpur or smth to be sure. Can be done in airport if airline starts questioning etc.
