I understand. Just going on what my employer's HR was told my Immigration at Chaengwattana when we queried whether we needed to renew his Extension. Maybe they just wanted the 1,900 baht!

I guess you're not extending at the main Immigration office in Bangkok, as they have extended my 3 year old's Extension twice now. Or maybe extending a visa is different. Either way, it was recommended to me that I should keep his immigration status legal, even though there is no fine or ban, as he would still get stamped as overstaying in his passport.

Having kids with you can sometimes result in quicker service!

I have just done exactly that. Don't what response I will get though, as I only sent them yesterday. Tod Daniels seemed to think it would be ok.

Cheers. I'll pop it into the envelope with the TM47.

Thai 5-year licences are in English so can be used for driving in the UK (as a tourist).

@Tod ********

does that mean that other foreign marriage certificates don't need to be legalised in the country where they were issued?

Edit: this was for the purpose of adding my wife to my Extension of Stay.

Chaengwattana accepted our UK marriage certificate in English, although it had to be legalised and the legalisation had to be certified by the Thai Embassy in London.

Cheers. Stamping it with a date stamp I have at work is probably not a good idea, although I can't see how they would know!
