A non immigrant B visa is the visa you need.

The description of the work you will be dong indicates you may need a work permit also.

Do you apply for the Non Imm B visa in the host country or can it be processed here in Thailand?

Hello UbonJoe, I have some other relevant questions pertaining to my business here in Thailand and starting to work for an overseas company. Is it possible to discuss with you directly? Happy to call you or communicate by email. Not sure the protocol on how we would exchange contact details ....... tadthai

In Chiang Mai, the Tuk Tuk rate is 80B to most anywhere within a few KM.

I must say I am surprised at how many people are siding with the Tuk Tuk drivers in this debate.

Here is a straight answer.

I bought one of the electronic dog silencers on line to hopefully silence the dog across the street. I think it cost $60. It was placed about 20 meters away from the offending mutt and it did not work.

Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics and Bruins fan here.

I have NFL Game Pass and MLB packages to keep up.

Re-entry permit is normally a quick procedure in chiang mai. No need to turn up early and battle the crowd of people with more complicated cases. If you show up at 2:00, you should be finished before 2:30.

Sorry to hear about your sucky holiday in Thailand. And sorry for all the people giving you crap about your posting. You were trying to share the bad experience so others would not make the same mistakes.

I've had friends com to Thailand to visit and make the same mistake by trying to squeeze too much into a block of time. Best to focus on a few spots with enough time to learn how to enjoy them. Good advice for those who follow.

I live in Chiang Mai. You might enjoy it. It is a bit cheaper if you can eat more street food rather than restaurants who cater to westerners. I would suggest staying near the Night Bazaar so you won't be isolated. Easy to get a tuk-tuk or song taew to get around. There are several smaller hotels where you can get a decent room for 1000 baht / night and be able to walk to restaurants and shopping. You can book some trekking or elephant parks or hill tribe visits here. There are some decent ones that treat the elephants well and not just to make a baht. Take a song taew up to Doi Suthep and bring a camera.

Good luck and hope your holiday finishes better than it started.

Bake & Bite offers a very good western breakfast. It's tucked away but once you know where it is, you might keep it your own secret. I guess that's why more people have not mentioned it in this thread.
