yeah I did see that Marty. My flight out and back in is September 11 so I've got a little time to get organised and decide what to do. Hey thanks mate I appreciate your help.
this is what I did... looong time ago now but it worked. I went into Krungsri and explained to them Ive sold my house in my home country and Im moving to Thailand. I am going to buy a condo somewhere and I would like to open a Thai bank account today so that I can send 5 or 6 million baht for a purchase. I havent found the condo yet but I want to be ready to go once im here permanantly on my OA visa.
Ive never seen a bank worker run so fast. ( bank account was opened within 45 minutes)😊
What would happen if I arrived back from my visa run before the current OA expires? Would they still stamp me in for another 12 months...without health insurance or would they say "you have no health insurance we can only stamp you in for 60 days". Then I extend for another 30 giving me 90.
