Your fortunate then. Many Airbnb owners live overseas and have a caretaker.

You won't lose anything. Immigration will correct the stamp, it happens all the time. Just get that TM30 sorted out before you visit the Immigration office. Even those of us that reside here permanently have to file a TM30. Immigration track the residences of all foreigners.

Paper documents can be infused with drugs , not many people would be willing to take them

No, not me. I'm a syringe in the veins guy. 😎 I've heard it all now, snorting Viagra. 😂

No, please, tell us more.

I didn't shop around. I bought health insurance for LTR visa from AXA, the only company I called. The premium depends on the insurer's age and the deductible. In the picture below , Plan 1 with 2M maximum benefit is good enough for LTR visas. I needed at least 10 months left on the policy at the time of visa approval, so I started the application without health insurance, and bought the policy when BOI asked for it.

its all about terps and personal reactions to each kind. indica and sativa are a thing of the past.

Go down to the airport and look for Brits checking in to a flight heading for the UK.

As much as I dislike Songkran, leaving the country to avoid it is a bit extreme. I just stay at home as I do most of the year. I only need to go shopping, and during the event, late at night, plenty of shops are open for my basic grocery needs. I didn't see a single water gun or bucket of water this year. The only change in my routine this year was not shopping at Big C Extra.

Hammas is a terrorist organization and their acrions on October 7 were horrible; however, this in no way supports Israel in killing over 30,000 innocent civilians. Both should be condemned and not given support.

Then they may have filed a TM30. Only way to find out is to ask them. If they did not, ask them to do so. And print out screenshot.

what a great use of human resources.

Yes that was our original plan👍 which is why i want the 60 day stamp on my passport rather than having to extend it by 30 now as then i will lose 30 days by having to do a border run

Soi Kophai, Pattaya, there's a small Vespa shop (local boys), always lots of Vespas out front, repairs etc. Have a talk with them, these guys generally know more about the bikes than the dealers, they know how to get around challenges.

This is nonsense. Although I don't go near the high-density beer bars areas during Songkran, it's Thai people that have caused me the most grief over the years. It's an excuse for Thai people with a chip on their shoulders to have a go at foreigners. Here are 3 examples that are probably quite familiar: 1. High-pressure water guns aimed directly at my face and/or ears when sitting on my bike waiting for the lights to change. 2. Huge buckets of ice water after 10 pm on side streets when trying to avoid water and carrying shopping. 3. Asking politely not to be splashed and getting drenched. They only really have fun when they find dry people who don't want to be wet, and in particular, foreigners. There's no fun wetting people who are already wet and out to play.

@miaclarkson03, you are aware that you can extend that 60 day permission of stay by a further 30 days at an Immigration office (once you get your stamp corrected) A land border run and re-entry will grant you a further stay of 30 days, which can be extended by a further 30 days at Immigration. A second land border run and re-entry will grant you a further stay of 30 days, which can be extended by a further 30 days at Immigration. A maximum of 2 land border crossing per calendar year are permitted. An extension at Immigration cost 1,900 baht.

Your proof of online booking counts for nothing. When filing a TM30 Immigration will require a copy of the owner's house book (Tabien Baan) which identifies the address and a copy of the owner's ID card, (that is if the owners are Thai) and a copy of your passport ID page. Most 'tourists' stay less than 30 days and never have need to visit an Immigration office, so the non filing of a TM30 doesn't really affect them. As you have a date to correct on your entry stamp, and if it's your intention to stay 150 days, at some point you'll need to apply for at least one 30 day extensions at an Immigration office, then you need to be aware of only staying at a residence that complies with the law and files a TM30. You can request a copy of that filing, and that's the proof Immigration will require when applying for any kind of service.

I have not been to dental school but I have watched a few you-tube videos and I work real cheap.......Give it some thought....

10PM IN Pratamnak a fraang on the back of the bike was shooting thais in the face with a strong water gun narrowly missing me on a bike. I had just left 711 and had a unopened can of drink in my hand.. I was about 3mm from slamming him in the face with it, but i did not.. He did deserve it tho... disgusting...

Okay thankyou well i’ll ask them in the morning. If i don’t have it do u still think its possible they will restamp me as we have proof of accommodation online?

Read my above post section 38 and section 4. An Airbnb is not a hotel or guest house, it's a private residence being rented out. That makes you as the tenant just as responsible as the landlord to file a TM30. TM30-Notification of alien residence.pdf

All very well observed, not to forget, that before "tensions" between the US and China arose, China parked massive amounts of their "export surplus money" in US T-Bills/US T-bonds. Financing a good part of the US budget deficits. Absurdity total: Without the Chinese influx of "surplus money", the US defence of Taiwan would possibly have to be financed by tax increases by US citizens. No way, as no US polititian would be re- elected proposing something like that. (Another Vietnam, with a peaking inflation rate of 15 % in the middle of the 1970 ties?) To impose sanctions agaist China? Great idea! Meaning that the Chinese will even buy less US T-Bonds, and affordable Chinese consumer goods will no more enter the shores of the US. The consumer goods that the US Industry can produce (if at all possible) will cost 30% more than the Chinese imports, further accelerating the impoverishement of the "lower-class" of Americans. The future looks bright, unfortunately not for the US/European economical universe.

I'm thinking about applying for a LTR visa for Pensioners and have a few questions. Any advice & information would be greatly appreciated. 1. What is the approximate yearly cost of the health insurance policy in order to qualify for LTR visa? 2. Are you required to purchase the health insurance policy before you apply for LTR visa, or afterwards? 3. Does BOI have a recommended list of health insurers? Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you...

Hopefully they can give you a copy then. This is a law you need to be aware of if you intend to move to different parts of Thailand and visit Immigration offices to apply for 30 day extensions.

But i have notification because we have confirmation of our stay and i am also going to ask airbnb owners for this document? What do u mean about a fine for not complying, what have i not complied with?
