I always scan all documents and print them out in colour producing one legible set for my annual extension but last year they upset my wife by demanding an additional set in black & white at Chang Wattana. She got mad because she is the one to go downstairs to get 25 pages of copies, which by the way, are as usual almost indecipherable with pictures mostly blacked out of details. As we had a booking time this made us late. 

 

We were not the only ones caught out by this, lots of disgruntled ex-pats vocalising their thoughts on the Thai Imm Service which were far from complimentary. I did not disagree!

 

So my question is - in order to prepare now and not get caught out again - is this now a requirement of the Imm Bureau as when printing I can always print a legible set in B & W so the  I.O's are happy bunnies? I.e two sets, one of which (if not both) must be in black and white?

 

I had the same in February last year at CW. It was nothing to do with the colour, they wanted another full set of paperwork for reasons they didn't explain. They probably mentioned B/W because it's cheaper.

 

This month they didn't ask for it.

The confirmation email they send you contains a link to change your appointment.

My appointment was for just before 10:00am but due to driving in early I arrived at the hospital at 7:10.

Can I ask where you parked arriving that early?

I have had two offers on friday,

one is from BOT/BCCT, which is AZ both shots, 12 weeks apart

 

2nd offer is via a sms message for Tria medical wellness center, no information on which vaccine or which organisation sent the message

I also got the SMS for Tria. I worked out that it came from applying via the British Embassy announcement on Saturday. It is also for AZ.

I found one before on ebay for around 1500 baht versus the 12k the dealers wanted. This was a couple of years ago. It worked and had free updates for a year, but the prices to update after that were pretty high so I switched to Android Auto.

Is hypertension even on the list of underlying conditions?

The app has now appeared on the play store for android.

I renewed 2 year to 5 year 2 weeks ago. It was nearly 6 months expired. You have a year before you have to retake the entire driving test. Again no video.

For international flights I can confirm it was 1,000 baht per sector to change the date. Domestic I'm not sure about, possibly 800 baht per sector.

On Saturday, Tesco on Samui had signs at the checkout saying they no longer accept Amex.

Looked yesterday and today for this without finding it. Could you post a link or another way to find? Thanks for the help.

Of course no flights available at this price anymore, as always...

 

Not surprising since they haven't gone on sale yet.

Is it still the case that no proof of finance is required in Vientiane for a single-entry non-o based on marriage?

 

I know it is possible in Savannakhet, but Vientiane would be more convenient.

According to Lazada, you can use this place for Meizu repairs:

Service Center - Chiang Mai District No. 244 Wualai Haiya Muang, Chiang Mai 50100 Tel. 053-201-901-3 Fax. 053-273-677.

Their holidays are listed on the website:

This idea that you can only book two weeks ahead keeps being repeated, but as I mentioned on another thread:

Booked on 25th March for an appointment on 23rd April. I could also see dates for May and I think June too.

You can see appointments more than 2 weeks ahead.

Hate to be nasty but all the developers on Koh Samui should probably be shot. It would help clean the place up a bit. Sp many out to make a quick buck at the expense of a culture bringing all the crap that they brought to the island over the past 20 years or so. I understand that a German developer named Norbert was shot and killed some years ago. Cou;dn't have happened to a better man who absolutuley deserved his fate.

I'm sure he will be surprised to hear he is dead.

Unless things have changed applications are only accepted during March or October at a cost of THB 300.

HTH

You can now apply year round.

I used Sadao just over a week ago on multi entry Non-O visa based on marriage. Nothing was said on departure, but on returning I handed my passport over at the booth and was sent to the office.

For the first time ever, I had taken a copy of my marriage certificate and my work permit, just in case. I was briefly questioned and advised it would be better for me to apply for an extension. At no point did they threaten not to admit me, but I will probably avoid using that border in future.

Pointing out that you didn't read the OP properly is not being a keyboard warrior.

You can book an infant as an adult but to actually use the seat you would need to provide your own carseat.

If so, when it comes to the part where they ask the details of the accompaying passenger, in this case, the infant, how did you navigate the bit where ask about the date of birth?

You contact the airline, in the same way as you would if you were booking 2 seats for an adult.

From their website: "Should a car seat be used for an infant, the adult shall pay for the seat on which the car seat would be placed upon"

Who asked about 2 infants flying with one adult?
