Got asked similar more than 10 years on a business extension. Nothing new. Was under a Taksin government so Taksin had probably made visas to troll then as well causing a crackdown.

You need to do a police report for everything like that in Thailand if you haven't already.

Anonymous participant You know you've only got until the end of the month to get that bronze elite ?

@Bruce ******

but the rules changed less than month ago.

@Bob *********

but they just changed it to 2 entries per year.

@Elías *******

Yes.

Most people on Dtv's have similar history.

If the hotels you have been staying at have been filing TM30's you have no problem.

Ask your current one for a print out of the tm30 receipt and go to your local immigration office to where you are currently staying.

Be warned many hotels especially under ฿1000 dont bother filing tm30's.

What visa are you on ?

Its meant to be there and can be asked anytime. Very few reports of being asked though.

The rules can change or be enforced anytime. Dont be surprised if it starts getting asked soon especially after the election.

A wise move is to keep it there and attend courses.

Remember bank accounts were closed and immigration dont want anything to do with it. 10,000 education visas where cancelled a few months back. There almost certainly will be a crackdown on it.

@Josh ****

Its an emergency fund. How is it unrealistic?
