A root canal?
Yes. BOTH done the same day.

I had my root canal and crown done at Dental Hospital Bangkok near On Nut. 7 Soi On Nut 1/1 (Sukhumvit 77), Phra Khanong Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110.
They do it all the same day because they make the crowns onsite. They drilled out the tooth, 1 hour later the crown was fitted and all done. Others have pointed out there are different types of crown materials. I was given "what they said" was the new best, and the total cost was far less than what you have quoted. 5 years now going strong.

I avoid the nonsense by getting a cashier's check in my name and walking it over to my other bank. Funds usually available the next day.

I tried over Songkran. Had the same problem. Perhaps it was down for the holidays and just got restored.

I am not sure why people buy "throw away" or "rented" tickets. Just pay more for a refundable ticket and cancel the ticket after business is done. That is what my friend does all the time. Full refund.

I was standing next to a well-dressed Indian man with a bag full of shopping at Central on the sky train today and I said, "Good luck with that." He took a minute to understand me, and then asked me how to avoid the water madness. I said, "Run, and don't leave your room next time."

Both chemical peel and laser peel have risks. My friends who have done it were very happy with the results. As for the cost in Thailand, ask the clinics around. And make very sure they are very qualified.

The expiry date of the eVisa is the date till which you can use that Visa to enter Thailand. When showing that Visa on entry you will then be stamped in by Thai border immigration for the 90 days Permission to stay that Non Imm O Visa provides you.
So in this case the OP should NOT show the eVisa to the border-immigration officer when he enters Thailand, and that will provide him with a 30 day Visa Exempt Permission to stay stamp in his passport. He can then after the 1 week he plans to stay in Thailand head for Phillipines, and after the 1 month he plans to stay there, on his return to Thailand THEN show the eVisa which will provide him with a 90 days Permission to stay for that Non Imm -O Visa.
OP only needs to take heed of the expiry date of his eVisa and that he should not let it expire before he plans to re-enter Thailand from the Phillipines.
Great answer. And it creates a question: If he had physically received a Visa at an embassy and has the Visa label entered in the passport. Would this situation be different? This Visa label has an expiration date on it. In other words, if he entered the country 15 days before expiration, the stamped expiration date still holds true and not pushed out 90 days based on date of entry?

From other replies, it sounds like it can be done. But if your eVisa already has an expiration date, much of it will be used up by the time you enter Thailand on it. I guess the advantage to your method is that you would not need to apply for a re-entry permit for your Philipine visit. If you enter on your non-o, you would need a re-entry permit.

Why not fly direct from DMK? Only 1 hr flight. However i strongly advise you get your eVisa in advance before you get there. When i arrived, the "Visa on Arrival" line filled the room. They must have spent all day there. I had my eVisa and there was only 2 people in front of me at the Immigration counter.

I had a frozen shoulder which cause me great pain when lifting my arm more than 90 degrees. I had the surgery at Bumrungrad hospital. I watched all the Youtube videos on how to solve your own shoulder problems. Waste of time. My shoulder is back to normal. I wish you the best.

Such as?
Example: Evidence of funds must show transferred from overseas. Copies of rental agreement. Copy of landlord tabien baan. Hand drawn map of where you live, etc., etc. These are a few of what is never listed on "official" websites. It depends on the specific immigration office. It is a good idea to contact the local office and know what they want before you get there.

I live in Laos and am considering a change to Thailand. I've looked at the requirements for a Non-O, 90-day visa at the Embassy in Vientiane, near where I live.
I had similar questions and tried the Vientiane consulate phone number and no one ever answered from 3 days of trying. Then I emailed them here and they replied within the hour:
consular.vte(at)mfa.go.th
Beware of hidden requirements not posted on the websites.

But the money IS being seasoned....just using two accounts with one of them always having the required amount. Yes, you will have to provide two lots of statements, but that is all.

I have the same problem. Money stretched across a few accounts. Not sure how each office will deal with that. However, I can say for sure that some IO's will not accept money in fixed accounts. The money needs to be accessible at all times. If it is a fixed account where you cannot get your money until the expiration, immigration may not approve you. These are the rules in Bangkok's CW office. The author needs to check the local requirements.

If you are in your home country, apply for the VISA through the local embassy. They just ask to see proof of funds in your local bank. Once you get the VISA, you can easily open a Thai bank account. If you are trying to do it from Thailand....good luck with that. Can be done but finding a bank is not easy.

Check their embassy website. Last time I read it takes many days to get your stamp. How long are you willing to wait?

When I sell my property in England which is currently going through, my plan was to send about 1 million baht to the Fixed Deposit Account by way of telegraphic transfer and leave it there for the required period in order to get my 1 year extension of stay.
However upon recently visiting a branch of SCB in Khon Kaen I told by one of their English speaking staff of my intention and she told me that it is not possible to transfer money into that account telegraphically and that the money will need to be sent to the savings account and then transferred over to the Fixed Deposit Account by doing a personal visit.
SCB told me the same thing. Cannot wire to a fixed account. You can wire it to your savings account. But your bigger problem is that the money hasn't been seasoned long enough. Check the requirements for extension at your local IO. Bangkok's CW wants to see a 1 year bank statement showing you had the full fund amount "x" months after your last VISA was issued and "x" months before your extension request.

Do you have another Thailand bank account you can transfer some money to show activity? I assume that requires a Thailand phone number to pass the OTP number to. That complicates things for sure.

I am probably not the most informed person to help you. But I have lived here 19 years and my landlord never submitted a TM30 for me until recently. Never needed one because I was working in Thailand and the Chamchuri office never required it for working foreigners. Now retired, the Bangkok CW office is requiring them. So, my landlord sent me a copy of the online TM30 submission. The owner never went to the Immigration office. I only gave the owner a copy of my passport and latest entry stamp.
As for 90 day report...I have read on this forum that the first report must be done in person. Then, after that, they are eligible to do them online. Others here can help me with the details.
One more thing. Regarding rental contract. I have rented from the same place for 19 years. The contract expired 18 years ago. Nobody cared until now I need a retirement visa. It is a good idea to ask the owner to send you a new contract every year for immigration purposes.

Reading through all this, I am wondering if us foreigners don't understand the tipping process in Thailand. Reading all these stories just makes me think this way.

Have a read here, suggests a multi entry is not possible at all, presumably that is what you are after - but perhaps somebody has some recent direct experience.
I am OK with single entry, assuming I can apply for a re-entry permit if I need to leave the country again while on the Non-O. Thanks.

Does anyone have recent experience obtaining their Non-O Retirement visa from Vientiane consulate? The consulate website lists far less rules than Bangkok CW. Or, are there additional requirements not published? For example, it says nothing about requiring evidence of 800k funds being transferred from overseas. Please share any recent experiences. Much appreciated.

Bob,
These are drunk arm-chair generals with nothing else to do with their lives but hurt others for their amusement. Now we know how our children feel everyday they go to school.

i dont understand
if sp 500 makes me 10 % profit in 5 years I pay 10 % of 10%?
I think there is some confusion. Dividend income is treated like ordinary income. If you made 10% dividend income, then you would be taxed 10% of your dividend. However, I understand Thailand does not have capital gains tax on valuation increases of your stock. That is tax free. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Root canal quote and need Crown

No. BOTH root canal and crown done the same day.
