On the up side, there are some industries that have received special consideration by the Thai Gvt which allows a foreigner to open a Business and get a Work Permit without having to hire 4 Thai staff along with a few other favorable considerations. Just look it up and you might be able to find some ideas. Hope this helps and best of luck!

Risk is 4 or 5 motivated by the potential for money Policemen all showing up at your location and confiscating computer and phone for inspection... That is the risk my friend, what happens next is not gonna be Sabaii Sabaii sure ;o)

I totally agree with what Brandon said.... After over 10 years of doing border runs and living in Thailand, you want to have all your ducks in a row when you enter any country for that matter, but specially Thailand... I know of quite a few who were denied entry for the smallest of reasons including not being able to show the 20,000 Bahts upon request. Better to be a good boy scout and be ready when crossing borders. Hope this helps and Safe travels

Can stay here Illegally, but it would quite interesting to see him/her try to leave the country, PLUS Police do ask for Passports on occasion, so walking on eggs shells is definitely Not the type of life that is considered Sabaii Sabaii and if ever an accident should occur?!? Enough said... Shoke dee!

If you are granted a 30 Visa Exempt entry, Immigration as well as the airline may ask for a Onward Ticket and as a good boy scout, you should be ready for it... Just check BestOnwardTickets.com . Got this request in Hong Kong recently and was glad I had it. Passed with flying colors ;o) I know its states valid for 72 hours, but I sent an email request and got a 7 day extension at no additional charge. Safe travels

Bangkok Bank has exactly that product and you can deposit the amount you want to have accessible on the Credit Cards which comes automatically in both Master and Visa... Hope this helps

For a Thai Citizen that is a guaranteed Yes, but under IATA rules and regulations, Airlines have the discretion to refuse any foreigner without a valid passport, so if you have a passport why risk it?

Immigration gives an initial 15 day Verification Period (1900 Bahts) , where they mostly check for Criminal history; then must go back to the Immigration office, to get another 45 days 😊 ( = 60 days total)

Insight English is a good spot also
