  1. Visa fees are strictly regulated from MFA (exchange rates can differ though) ...
  2. ASEANNOW will have a news story about this by tomorrow when the MFA Press secretary (Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bangkok) is back at work after today's holiday-off. Preliminary info tells me that this is actually a worldwide raise in Thailand visa fees, but this can't be confirmed until tomorrow. Check our newsletter tomorrow, or subscribe here to get it: https://aseannow.com/newsletter -------- UPDATE: The Royal Thai Embassy in Wellington, New Zealand, has now confirmed that the visa fee increase is certainly correct. See the Embassy reply further down in this thread, and more info.
  3. Thai Embassy in Canberra, Australia, raised the visa fees last September 2022, was that not worldwide? https://canberra.thaiembassy.org/fees/
  4. A few years ago maybe. Now it’s clear and transparent: https://www.revolut.com/legal/standard-fees/

  6. They offer best exchange rates Monday to Friday, but Saturday / Sunday is slightly lower rate. Clearly communicated!
  7. The card has actually arrived with DHL but I’m traveling so haven’t opened the envelope yet. I have an apartment and address in my home country which I had to supply when applying and that was perfectly okey.

  8. You can certainly open a Revolut account with your home address in Farangland, and ask them to send your card to Thailand via DHL for a delivery fee, around 700 Baht) and use it here, and elsewhere. I have applied and my card is on the way to Thailand, after asking all these questions with their support.

  15. !!! ด่วน !!! English below เมื่อวาน วันที่ 9 กุมภาพันธ์ 2567 ได้มีประกาศราชกิจจานุเบกษา ออก กฎกระทรวง (สาธารณสุข) กำหนดปริมาณยาเสพติดให้โทษ และวัตถุออกฤทธิ์ ที่ให้สันนิษฐานว่ามีไว้ในครอบครองเพื่อเสพ พ.ศ. 2567 ลิงค์ประกาศ: https://ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/documents/20444.pdf โดยมีการกำหนด: ข้อ 2 (3) (ค) สารเตตราไฮโดรแคนนาบินอล (tetrahydrocannabinol หรือ THC) ที่เป็นสารสกัดจากทุกส่วนของพืชกัญชา หรือกัญชงที่เป็นยาเสพติดให้โทษในประเภท 5 มีน้ำหนักสุทธิไม่เกิน 30,000 มิลลิกรัม หรือในกรณีที่เป็นของเหลวมีปริมาตรสุทธิไม่เกิน 30 มิลลิลิตร *แปลภาษาคน ถ้าครอบครองสารสกัดที่มี THC มากกว่า 0.2% ไม่ว่าจะมาจากส่วนไหนของกัญชา/กัญชง มากกว่า 30 กรัม หรือ 30 มิลลิลิตร เจ้าหน้าที่สามารถสันนิษฐานได้ว่าขายชัวร์ นี้น่าจะเป็นแค่หนึ่งในหลายกฎกระทรวงที่สาธารณสุขน่าจะทยอยออกมาเรื่อยๆ ต้องค่อยจับตากัญดีๆ ปล. เห็ดขี้ควายพกได้ไม่เกิน 135 กรัม 😉 #พระแม่แจ้งข่าว #ครอบครองสารสกัดมากกว่า30กรัม #เท่ากับขาย #kittychopaka --- Yesterday, February 9, 2024, there was an announcement in the Royal Gazette issuing Ministerial Regulations (Public Health) specifying the amount of narcotic drugs and active ingredients which is presumed to be in possession for consumption, B.E. 2567 Which state: Item 2 (3) (c) Tetrahydrocannabinol (or THC) extract from all parts of the cannabis or hemp plant under Schedule 5 Narcotic with weight not exceeding 30,000 milligrams, or in the case of liquid, volume not exceeding 30 milliliters. *Translate to normal people language If you are in possession of more than 30 grams or 30 milliliters of extract containing more than 0.2% THC, regardless of which part of the cannabis/hemp plant it comes from, officials can assume that you have it for sale. This is likely just one of many ministerial regulations that Public Health is likely to gradually come out, so keep an eye out. As note, this includes Hash, and this doesn't apply to extracts being sold at dispensery/cannabis shop as that is considered illegal to sell in the first place, which can carry a fine of 500,000 thb and 5 years in prison.

  16. Some advertisers and ad networks are targeting our site for Chinese New Years promotions. I have asked the ads agency to review and fix this. Thanks for your feedback!
  17. Our ad agency will optimize ads during the weekend. The site need ad revenue so we are doing a lot of testing to achieve revenue goals and best user experience (UX). Not easy to combine the two.... Thanks for your feedback, please contact support if you have further questions. 🙏🏼
  18. Found the Cloudflare App here: I am using the Internet fast lane by installing 1.1.1.1 app. It's free and protects me from Internet spies! #1dot1dot1dot1 https://warp.plus/J714x
  19. Appstore says not available for MacOS: This app is available only on the App Store for iPhone and iPad.
  20. I am normally using DNS 1.1.1.1 and secondary DNS 8.8.8.8 for my devices. Works very fast well at home and other locations. Currently I'm staying at a resort and they provide fast wifi from True Gigatex fiber (Thailand). Problem: My Macbook Air (latest MacOS 14.3) is now constantly changing my DNS back to the resort's True fiber router (192.168.x.x). When I change back to 1.1.1.1 it suddenly changes back to the resort router's DNS. Grrr.. I have tried to "forget" that network, but then I get no wifi connection at all. How do I save DNS on the Macbook so it can't change DNS automatically? I see no option to save or lock the DNS settings. On my iPhone it keeps 1.1.1.1 with no problem. Anyone? 🙏🏼
  21. Thanks for your feedback. I have forwarded your screenshot to our ad agency. 🙏🏼
