Hi
My brothers Irish girlfriend is looking to extend her tourist visa by 10 days.

She started off with a Triple Entry Tourist visa which she got in Ireland.  This gave her 60 days by 3.

Now she is on a 30 day visa when she arrived back by plane into Bangkok on 16th April.  Her passport stamp says she is entitled to stay until 15th May.

However, her flight out of Thailand is 25th May.

Therefore, we have a shortfall of 10 days.

We are going to the Yasothon Rocket Festival this weekend and were wondering whats the best way to get the extra few days.

Am I correct in saying that she just needs to do a border run (not visa run) to get an extra 15 days?

Can you recommend the best border near Yasothon/Ubon?

Does this mean she would have to get a Lao visa also?

Thanks for any help in advance!

Some context first....

I lived in Thailand for 6 years between 2001 and 2007..... Left cause I was a little disillusioned and thought I missed family and friends back home!

Now after 4 years back in Ireland, I have no relocated back to Thailand last week...... turns out that friends all move on with their own lives....plus my whole family is getting the hell out of Ireland as it is up the proverbial creek!

My grand plan is to get my Thai (speaking, reading & writing) up to a level where I can watch TV, read newspapers and generally just get by chatting with people......

I invested a lot of effort before but cause I was working I didnt have the time..... now I do!  

I just got myself a new Android phone and was wondering if anyone could recommend good Android Apps for learning Thai.....dictionaries and phrasebooks especially..... I used to use this from Paiboon on my Palm years ago and found it great - is there something like that for Android?

Would appreciate any help.....

Thanks

Howdy, anyone know where in Bangkok I could get to see Munster V Leinster in Magners League rugby final on Saturday?

I looked at all the Irish Bar websites but nothing posted.....tried True TV listings but again no luck..... would prefer to see it in a pub rather than stream it....

Hi,
I had a thread a while back about the whole process I went through getting my Fortuner out of Thailand and into Ireland.

All went well with transport and taxes (I paid none) but forgot about the heater!!  Actually got used to driving in the cold weather!

Now I have had enough of Ireland and am planning on heading back to Thailand.

Anyone any idea about import taxes?  Would I still have to pay seeing as though the car was originally manufactured in thailand?
