What amount do I need to show in cash at Bangkok airport if asked?

Rob **********

Immigration rarely asks for it at all, but if asked you must show 20,000 baht in cash or the equivalent in foreign currency, not your bank account, credit cards etc, must be cash. But 99% of the time it is not even asked for.

Can I extend my retirement visa in Thailand before returning from abroad?

Rob **********

No unfortunately not, most offices will let you do your next extension with 30 days left on your current extension, but if you are not going to be in the country, your extension will run out and you will need to start the process again.

Is the new Thai international driving license valid for 3 years and accepted in 84 countries now available?

Rob **********

Yes, but be aware if you are spending 3 months consecutive in some countries, their law requires you to get a license for that country, it just doesn’t give you the right to drive for 3 years in another country.
