I understand. Thanks. So one could leave on day 179 and arrive back quick and literally stay the entire year...and probably not need all that documentation mentioned.

hmm what is difference between an extension and a new 180 day stamp? I thought you just get another 180 days once you leave and come back in... and can do that often...... so I thought the office visit was instead of a border run... ??

Wow, maybe they should list all those requirements on the website to save time ;)

Wait a few months, then a few more, etc.....for new visas with more questions.....lol

@Dennis ********
same situation with work...you could stop working just after getting the DTV. Either they didn't think through all the use cases, or just don't care after you get it ......I wonder....

Wise took their fee during the transfer.

This was a line item on my bank statement about a week after and only .3%. .....of that amount but not sure related. Sorry I wrote 3% earlier by mistake.

I would think it would be useful for a bank to keep an account open especially with hundreds of thousands of baht in it ;)

Btw...are transfers into Bangkok Bank or any Thai bank taxed now?

I just moved a large amount in using Wise from a USA bank and noticed a tax line item ..looks about 3%.

Do they check for an updated tm30 on the 90 day check in? Do you need to bring a copy?

I use my Google voice number since it uses data and I'm mostly on wifi. Not sure if numbers are still available but it's great...text too!
