    I forgot to ask: there is need to show an onward flight out of Thailand within 60 days at the immigration arrival at the airport or to the airline If you got a 60 days tourist visa in your home country?

    The airline at departure may request an onward flight if planning to enter Thailand visa exempt. 

    Rarely would it be asked by Thai immigration on arrival.

    The onward flight should be within 30 days.

     

    You received suggestions from entirely using visa exempt entries to combination of visa exempt + tourist visas.

    Important consideration is where you would be based.

    I have a couple of bank accounts in uk but no property, should i make a will in UK ( i have one here with all Thai accounts and assets ). Would it be easier for wifey to get the UK assets with the marriage registered there?

    Money only and no property.

    If not wanting to leave funds to anyone in UK best option is to transfer funds to Thailand. 

    Surely not referring to serious money as it's in a bank.

    I gave OP two options: 1) if she can get her entry stamp corrected; and 2) an extension, if she cannot get her entry stamp corrected. Not that difficult to understand...:whistling:

    Agree.

    Also she mentioned only 20 day Samui then no firm plans other that more stays on islands.

    Very frustrating OP.

    Normally I would not care less however her situation it not as unusual as one would think.

    Very unhelpful op.

    seems in this thread alone 2 of us are in a situation where our wife can handle things while we are away. 

    This is such a nonsense thread.

    First up you can remit money back to "home country" 

    400k is not serious money.

    Not too long ago I had a hip replacement in Bangkok.

    By Coincidence 400k. 

    BTW: The op was not about wife "taking care of things" 

    He wanted to send 400k baht back to UK.

    The visa stamp is smudged and the writing is not clear. Looking at an old visa, if I leave the country and plan to return, I need to pay 1,000 baht for a reentry permit.

    Thanks everyone.
     

    Stop.

    If you obtained a non O single entry visa from Oz you would be stamped in 90 days.

    It's not an "old visa" 

    You didn't even reply to which airport you exit from.

    For example BKK different process to DMK.

    my wife can cover expenses etc as well. so maybe not as few as you may think. 

    Yeah for sure . 

    I'm sure Thailand is rampant with Thai wives supporting fully their farang partners, including the funds in bank requirements for extensions 

    400k as a once off the OP wishes to return to UK is a red herring.

    Nothing definitively points to seasoning required or not. I travel next week and can deposit the funds this week and get my banks letter if seasoning not required.

    Things have changed. 

    For the multi seasoning is required (previously not the case) 

    Few reports where guys have attended for multi and without seasoning have been give single entry non O (90 day)

    Dee Money may be your friend if you're really hell-bent on doing this:

     

    https://www.deemoney.com/

     

    I mentioned Deemoney earlier.

    Bit off topic however....

    I not long ago purchased a condo from UK guy.

    There was a misunderstanding and I paid him in cash. 

    I sent him to Deemoney as he was returning UK in few days.

    Subsequently he needed all the land office transfers and blue book etc.

    As previously stated, he has been to Thailand twice in the last 12 months. When checking in, the airline told him as you have had 2 visa exempt in the last year so you need a visa. He obviously questioned this. The airline claimed to have rung Bangkok immigration to check and they concurred. Travel was refused and he has now applied for a tourist visa

    Do you know how many folk post regarding entry to Thailand via air using visa exempt.

    It's like a recycle bin. Fills every day.

    There has NEVER been ONE account remotely similar to your account.

    Done with chit chat. Post factual accounts.

    The essence of my OP was to warn all prospective non imm o's that due to the new "rules" monies in does not necessarily mean monies out - so be prepared for this scenario.

    How did you try and transfer funds back to UK? 

    Also VERY few would be in your situation regarding wife having Financials covered both for living and obtaining extensions.  

    Point of your thread?
