What are good non-Western countries to spend half the year in while living in Thailand?

Rafael *******

@Angelo **********

I don't need to. There will be no yearly extension for $50 listed in it anyway. I guess you should read and work on your comprehension, before spreading misinformation. I have 6 yearly extensions from the Cambodian immigration in my passport, I very much know the process here.

Yes, you are wrong. The extension is $ 290+WP$180+Docs$20. All together around $500/year.

A year visa for Cambodia isn't $50, but multiple of it, and a letter from an employer or a business registration as well. And an additional work permit for $180 is necessary as well, without that you won't get a yearly extension.

What is the penalty for being one day late on a Thai visa renewal?

Rafael *******

I wouldn't be sure that the Thai immigration knows the difference between Kosovo, Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro and North Macedonia.. I guess they'd just throw a dart at the map and send you where it lands.

I see so many Indian people working as sale staff at MBK and other retail places. I always wonder what kind of visa they are on.

What are the best websites to purchase onward tickets for travel from Thailand?

Rafael *******

@Richard ********

It gets refunded after cancellation. Expedia refunds it, so it just a few days (not a few weeks like airlines). Not all flights though, during booking you can see that 'free cancel in 24 hours' tag next to the valid offers. You can cancel online just with a few clicks after booking.
