it's my own experience in Phuket. To prove this better bring the passport in IO.

Yes. Until 17 years old which is the legal age in TH.

Non O Retirement visa. My husband renew it yearly for 7 years now. You are required to do notification every 90 days (online or drive through) . In case you want to travel outside Thailand... get a reentry

NO!! I live here 17 years, adopted the Thai culture, have lots of Thai friends as well as Falangs... language is not the barometer for me. Its RESPECT. Having said that, i do respect your view but in trying to force your view and questioning others.. thats not right for me and others. I am happy here with the conversation Thai i have. Thats is enough for me.

To each his own reason. Meaning each individual have their own reason or preferences. Why does it bother you if other foriegners are not as good or fluent as you? This is not USA. Here the motto to live by is respect... not language. Of course its easier to live by in speaking their language.. but if you get by with what you know.. thats it! There are options you know.. like translation apps..

You need an agent. Been doing it for years.

Nah.. We Filipinos knows our options.. of course it is best to apply for a regular visa but she is not really working here.. the post is asking for options..

After the fly in and out, another option is apply for 2 months visa in Laos..extendable to 1 month immig office.

@Bob *********

Fly in and out is by air... but she can also do border visa runs... 2x a year plus 2x extensions... that would give her 4 months tourist visa

Yes po. If from Ph she come again as long as you have hotel and return tickets... if you fly out of Th you can do this around 3 to 4 times but be sure to keep a bank statement for the nth time... Th immig might ask for it when you fly in.... my friend husband always visit her 3 to 5 times a year.

If she go back to PH she can come back again and will be given the 30 day visa on arrival plus 1 month extension (1900 bht). Another option is fly out to any country for a day then come back. She will be given 30 days visa upon arrival and extend again 30 days.
