You can buy the 60 day SETV prior to deleting the USA Fir $40 for the Thai embassy/consulate in your region, you can then extend that for 30 days at your local immigration office for a cost of ฿1,900

You can arrive then after arrival you can extend it for a cost of ฿1,900 at your local immigration office for 30 days..if in Bangkok you can do it the same day as long as you meet the following requirements…arrive during normal business hours of the immigration office m-f minus holidays, hade your TM30 sorted and you can make it there before they close…other immigration offices have different policies on extension policies I.e: they won’t extend you until a certain number of days until your stamp expires

You can do 2 land border runs per calendar year (01 Jan - 31 Dec) which can be extended for 30 days at your local immigration office for a cost of ฿1,900

There is no official limit of air ins which you will get 30 days at a time with your USA passport which can be extended for 30 days at a cost of ฿1,900…caveat to air ins is that you will eventually be questioned by an overzealous immigration officer

There are so many low cost airlines in Thailand that it’s easy to buy tickets at cheap prices

Good luck

and I’m sure if you don’t return the money very quickly a few guys will show up to your door and you’ll have to pay around 20 points more to get out of trouble

You have just described factoring money and a loan shark operation all in one…

It depends on your circumstance…are you staying their long term? Are you moving around every 2-3 months?…

a great SIM card to use is the AIS marathon card that’s unlimited 4g/3h spores and you don’t get throttled until you hit 100GB cost is ฿1,800 per year…

3BB fiber is great I get 800mb D/L and 550mb U/L I pay ฿775 a month, but you will have to buy a 6G router and 6G capable wires for it…



Good luck

Yes

@Carl ******

no problems to do that…just don’t get arrested while in Thailand they will blacklist you

I’m guessing you have a UK Passport so yes you can come on a 30 day visa free waiver stamp which if you want to you can extend for 30 days at your local immigration office…I’m not sure what type of visa you applied for but if it’s the 60 day SETV you fwb buy that at any Thai embassy/consulate

@Todd ********

one percent’r issues

@Chris *******

you can purchase a Cooler, ice daily and a cheap fan, rig up some PVC pipes as exhausts and you have a poor mans Aircon

@Chris *******

some have some don't have...but almost all at this price point don't have lifts so the higher you go the less the rent...but the more you have to carry your bags and groceries....
