I did a lot of research when I was looking for land in Thailand. Everything I read also said all contracts are void in a divorce. I would have to see an actual case where a farang got to keep his land in a divorce, before I trusted a usufruct. I used my ex wife sister’s name to buy the land. I do not plan to marry her and she does not care about my love life.
The Covid19 swab test involves sticking a Qtip up the patient’s nose. I guess the virus lives is up there somewhere. Strangely enough it does not seam to be transmitted through nose picking.
The “ Anything about countries nearby” part was ignored. I want to book a flight to a neighboring country as soon a possible, if Thailand is not opening soon after. Me and my gf met in Tokyo in October because of the “you come to Thailand too much”. Apparently 7 months per year 2017, 2018, and 2019 on tourist visa and extensions is too much.
Population density is exactly my point. People talk about the number of cases and deaths in USA as if it all of USA is effected the same. Actually there are a few hot spots that contribute to the high numbers. I was replying to the “ probably not as much as US” comment.
I built a house in Chiang Rai. I stayed in Chiang Rai 7 months in 2018 and 7 months in 2019. I started with a 60 day tourist visa from the Thai consulate in Atlanta, 30 day extension, border run to Mai Sai, 30 day extension, border run to Mai Sai, 30 day extension. I did this 2 years in a row. Immigration will assume that you are working illegally and it’s hard to convince them otherwise. The border runs I did in Mae Sai was crossing the border for a few hours. I have never had a job in Thailand. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions.
