Researching the Thai immigration rules can be a frustrating endeavor as the rules constantly change. The reason for the regulatory state of flux is based upon the fact that there are multiple bureaucracies with authority over different aspects of the Thai immigration process.Recently, Consulates that were known as "visa run" destinations began restricting the issuance of multiple tourist visas. Places such as Penang, Malaysia and Vientiane, Laos are seeing a decline in "visa runners" as these new Consular policies drive them elsewhere. Many long term tourists as well as expatriates began toying with the notion of remaining in Thailand on non-immigrant or immigrant visas.This brings up the issue of long term non-immigrant Thai visas. Thai visas are usually issued with a validity period based upon the perceived needs of the applicant. Therefore, an effectively prepared Thailand visa application is a necessity if one wishes to obtain a long term visa. A collateral issue is that of work authorization.

After soaring for most of the decade, they dipped slightly in 2008 but quickly levelled out. Whilst the devaluation of the pound against the euro may have put some people off investing in the short term, it is once again a buyers market in France as we head into 2010 and if you are able to put in an offer, the general advice is to strike while the iron`s hot.Whilst buying a home in some countries has often been a gamble ending in heartache, investing in a property in France has always been a safe bet. This is not only due to stable economic forces but the nature of the French purchasing system itself, which while appearing to be over-stringent in some areas, is highly protective of the buyer and favours...more
