Re: Visa extension

The Son entered Thailand on his Thai passport, which will expire in early August. As the Son will be returning to Europe after the date of Thai passport expiry he would not be allowed to leave Thailand unless he gets a new Thai passport. The fact he has a valid UK passport does not allow him to leav...

Visa extension

One of my sons visiting Thailand this summer will need to get his (free entry) visa extended to 60 days, as he has a UK passport.
I understand this costs 1900 baht, but what documents are required by immigration, as my wife will be with him, I am staying in France...(!)

Re: Car Vakue

Is that relevant? My wife is the owner and will drive if July/August when she is there.
In the meantime her sister will drive the car - not that often. Both full, clean licences.

...I will be paying the premium!!!
