Thanks for the info, but it is too late for me to cancel my current hotel registration. I don't have a problem with the price I'm paying. I stayed in Jomtien two years ago and rented a condo for three weeks and paid more than I am on this ... Read More

Retirement Visa application assistance? by McNally

Has anyone out there used Siam-Legal or Thai-visa for retirement visa assistance and what has been your experlence with them? I'm in Dallas and will be retiring in July 2015 and may want to use one of them, but I'm concerned if they follow ...

Hewmundi

Thank you so much for your post. If I understand it correctly, I don't need to mess with getting a visa at all. I can come there on the standard 30 day entry visa, and start the O-A process once I'm there. Is that the case? Read More

Thanks for all of the feedback. I might be over thinking all of this (I have a tendency for doing that), but it seems to me to be a catch 22 situation. According to the Thai consular website, I need a return ticket to get my tourist visa. They ... Read More

Once again, thanks for the info. '95 was a long time ago, things probably have changed. I think I'm going to have to reach out to the Thai Consulate in D.C. and see what they have to say. I'll post whatever I find out, could be a ... Read More
