Is a Retirement Visa better than a 6-month multiple entry visa for long-term stay in Thailand?

Richard *******

He may be referring to Residency. Currently residency for many countries is not just a convinience mailing address. Tax laws (tightened due to terror threats) mean that residency is not such a simple thing anymore and many monetary decisions can be affected by your declaration of residency.

What are the rules and procedures for completing the first 90-day report for my partner in Bangkok?

Richard *******

My understanding is that you must do a 90 day report "offline" so to speak, before you can do it online, and that is the only restriction. However, I have heard from one person that Samut Prakan made them do the report in person. But I am sure Tod Daniels is correct about CW.

What visa options are available for backpacking in Thailand for 3-6 months?

Richard *******

The Airlines, although as

says they dont seem to be so harsh at other UK airports. I have been questioned in Houston, Atlanta, Luanda, Amsterdam, Paris CDG, and Singapore.

Richard *******

It is more likely that the Airline will deny boarding in the UK if you do not have a visa or proof of onward or return travel. Heathrow in particular is getting quite tough on this.

I have always done it a minimum of 8 days before, just so I don't have to worry about exactly this question :). However yes, the 12th would be correct.
