Not sure Kasikorn has them now. There has been a message for some time (see below) But I have never seen any news saying you can apply. Maybe I have missed some thing. "K Web Shopping Card service has been renamed to K Online Debit Card. You can continue using the service as usual. To Apply New Card will be available soon!"

If it isn't just corruption money you will get a receipt right? -

Have you had problems in PB? I have heard about 1 days stay needed but 3 days was news to me. Has it happened to you? This was posted in an other tread. -
Closest land border from Phuket?
bokningar replied to Leveraged's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The closest used to be the Ranong to Burma. It is by boat and I'm not sure if it ha opened again yet. Used to be organised tours with a van. Good luck -
Maybe it is time for US and EU to put a ban on flights to Thailand. Then they can live on quality tourists.

Thailand looks at easing visa rules in bid to boost tourism
bokningar replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
As you say, that change didn't make much sense only hitting the O-A visa. In the end they must have lost a lot of nights spent in Thailand on that move. For my self I just spend a fraction of the time I used to spend in Thailand since they made that change. Hope they change it back, I still like Thailand. But I wont spend money on insurance for months I don't stay in Thailand, And that is what you end up doing if you want to get an O-A visa right now. -

Just change the O-A visa back to what it was prior to the demand for (useless) insurance came in to play. And I will come back spending money in Thailand 5-8 month of the year like I use to do. Or a 90-day visa exempt like Malaysia. If you could extend that 1 time. -
I haven't looked in to this for some time. Covid kind of stopped my plans. Only had a tourist visa stay last winter. Now when I look at the Thai e-visa site, on A-O visa there is no mentioning of insurance in the list of "Required Document" So is that gone or am I missing something? https://thaievisa.go.th/long-stay-visa Required Document (Please check relevant embassy/ consulate's website for specifically required documents) 1. Passport with validity not less than 6 months. 2. Photograph of the applicant, taken within the past six months. 3. Financial evidence : a guarantee letter from the bank and a copy of bank statement showing a deposit of the amount equal to and not less than 800,000 THB or an income certificate with a monthly income of not less than 65,000 THB or a deposit account plus a monthly income in total not less than 80,000 THB. 4. Certificate of criminal record clearance from the country of nationality. The certificate should be valid not more than three months and should be notarized by notary organs or the applicant's diplomatic or consular mission. 5. Medical certificate from the country where the applicants apply visa stating that applicants don’t have any prohibited diseases as follows; Leprosy, Tuberculosis, Elephantiasis, drug addiction, third stage of Syphilis. The medical certificate must be issued no longer than 3 months prior to the date of submission.

Tourism sector pushes for less fly-in requirements
bokningar replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
“The Thailand Pass system cannot be lifted because it’s a data center for important information on tourists which can be used to trace them when they travel in Thailand,” In his job description it must say " Scare people away from visiting Thailand" And he is doing a good job- 30 replies

So they charge the park fee at Layan now? I didn't use to pay before corona when I went there. Did see some rangers on the south end of Nai Yang some weeks ago as well. Seems like they are getting greedier all the time.

So in reality there isn't any agent in Phuket, just a middle man sending pp to an agent somewhere?

Does any one of you know a good reliable agent for a retirement visa in Phuket? How much does the service cost? Thanks in advance.

LK gave you the answer, or half of it. I came to Phuket and had a Pfizer vaccination after 6 days. Register isn't enough, you need to book a time as well. I have a time for a second dose, I can't cancel it. Had 2 before arrival here. Don't need 4. Send PM and I give you info so you might have my time if you can't find a time of your own, and that dose wont be wasted.

Just chose an airline that accept your dog as check in luggage. Get an approved transport cage. Make sure your dog has all required vaccinations. Apply for a import permit from DLD. And then of you go. If you have a dog that is to heavy, considered dangerous or some flat nose dogs that can have problem breathing, you might not be able to do it. Different airlines have different rules. Check around. Good luck
