Jezuz..... Over do it.  Total overkill.  Orwelian nightmare.

Many tourists come here for this "entertainment".  If Thailand wants to disassociate itself with this, say goodbye to at least 50 % of your tourists.  They should subsidize and respect these people.

Try contacting the local tourist police in the area you're planning to visit. They usually have an English speaker and can give you updates. I've driven around quite alot since this started from home in hua hin to Kanchanaburi, Korat , bkk a few times now and south to Pratchuap and Chumphon then Ranong and back....Never been stopped at any checkpoint they don't seem to want to be bothered. Roll the window down as you approach a checkpoint , give a smile and a salute...At one checkpoint outside of Kanchanaburi the cop says "where you going?" I said to Erawan national park. Then he said park closed, so I said "no worries just ride around and take a look" He just laugh and wave me on..

I was in trat for quite a while march 26 _ may 1 ( ko chang).   Way back to bkk was a breeze, just like you said/ no probs.  Waves are firing (cyclone )  i surf.  Might have to run the gauntlet

regardless of what the authorities are, or aren't doing, when traveling to a new location everyone has the responsibility to self quarantine for 14 days for the health and safety of their family and friends.

Noted.  Thanks for the advice.  I agree.  Im trying to get in the ocean.   I cant take this anymore.   I dont need f in malls.  Or restaurants.  Or barber shops.  I need to get into some waves and or national parks , some trees, something other than glass and metal.

Hi .  does anyone exactly how the 14 day quarantine is enforced or regulated, checked up on?  what is the process if anyone knows?  Thanks.  I'm trying to weigh options to travel to a province.

Not in Khao Lak but I've been following the situation closely across all coastal provinces. From what I understand, Phang Nga is one of the provinces (like Trat, Ranong, Satun, Trang) still requiring a valid reason to enter the province. Tourism is not one of them. If you're allowed in, self quarantine with checks by local authorities is required. Beaches in the province were never closed. 

So beaches were never closed in phang nga?  Ive asked many people, from surf shops to hotels to my gfs colleagues ...i get a different answer from everyone.  Id say it 60/40 closed / open.  But they wont let me enter probably you are saying.  Im trying to go surf.   

And what does the self quarantine entail?  Will they just drop by randomly?  Or will they call? Email?  Ride up on a bicycle?  Orwelian <deleted>ehouse this world has become.

I trust they will do everything they can to make it more difficult for farangs....been going that way for the 10 years ive been here.

Does anyone know which districts are open (for driving to)?  I want  to drive to Khao Lak from Bangkok.  I cant seem to be able to get this information from anywhere.  It's like a big secret or something.  I am also trying to figure out if beaches in Khao Lak are open?  Thanks.

Hi , Does anyone know who to contact or whee to look for up to date information on beach openings/closings in Phuket and in Phangna?

They are always telliing s what we can't do or go but there is never any information of when these things open back up, or where to find this information.

Thanks

????

Open up National Parks please.

I miss getting fleeced for farang price even though I live and work here and pay taxes????

they only open things that make money.   Beaches, pools, national parks (only income from fleecing foriegners), and the like serve no purpose for them I guess.  Strange since being outdoors is the safest place to be.  Plandemic

They cannot make a special law for your building. And people can gather in and around the pool and because being wet cannot use masks. Also some people lying in the sun will avoid to use masks so that not halve of their face will remain white. 

The sun kills the virus.  Limit numbers.  Dont't allow sunbathing or congregating.  Solved.  

Lol...weve already had 5 months..give it a rest

Hi, What documents are required for certificate of residence?  I have a WP but they no longer have the address listed , so I have to get a Cert. of residence to renew my driver's license?  As if I worked here but didn't live here.

Update.  No problems.  Had to fill a form before departure on Ko chang, usual information.  Didn't see any Thais filling in forms, guess it's only for Farangs - big surprise.   Not checked on way to BKK.

I've used non imm 90.  Hope it is correct. I guess the visa is only for 90 days, then they are all extensions of stay?  So odd.  I don't understand why they have to make everything so convoluted and illogical, oh wait......, yes, I understand.

Hello, 
My landlord always does my TM30 report via phone application.  I've recently done my first 90 day report of a Non imm. B work visa.  What classification should my visa be?  I don't see the option for non imm B?  I've included photos of my options , thanks.

Hi,
Is it allowed to drive to different provinces?  I remember a while back the were "discouraging" travel.  But I don't know if it was ever banned.  I want to drive my own car from Trat (ko Chang) to Bangkok (my residence).  Thanks.

I put my post in the wrong section. Seems that they are not issuing D/L at present. But your old one has been extended to at least 15 days after the lockdown ends. When that will be Buddha only knows.

Where did you get this information?  Can anyone confirm?  Thanks

They have stopped issuing new licenses. 

Renewals can be done online with a test.

Foriengers cannot do it.

I have heard DLT is closed (Bangkok).  What to do to extend DL?  A Thai friend says they will extend during this period automatically.  Does anyone know if this true?  And for foreigners also?  Thanks.

Does anyone know if internet explorer has a better chance of working.

Also, do you only get one attempt? 

Like if it doesnt work, it shuts down or blocks you or something?

Thanks
