What are some embarrassing mistakes foreigners make in Thailand that others should avoid?

Dave **********

I understood you didn't and I'm also not a mind reader. Maybe that's because I have been around Thailand for five decades and us old timers had a lot of the same opportunities. There are still great opportunities here.

What are the experiences and differences between the Thai Elite Visa and LTR Visa?

Dave **********

BOI was so very helpful and answered all my e mails timely.

Most of the documents for retirement are your own financial records or passport so not much of anything for an agent to gather

As its all done on line, until you go to pick up your approved LTR I see no need to pay for a retirement LTR. Maybe for other types. Good luck.
