Inderpland

I recently went through the Phuket one week sandbox and returned to Pattaya 10 days ago. I am here on a retirement extension and suddenly it occured to me that I might still be required to go to Jomtien and do the address reporting. Is that still required? Also, will my 3 months reporting be required 3 months after my recent return to Thailand or must I go by the date given to me before leaving?

I need an electrician (OK, I know I won't get an actual electrician but someone who's doing electrical work) for some jobs in my house here in Pattaya. Recommendations would be most welcome.

A friend of mine had his Thailand Pass application rejected due to no date for the 1st dose. Is there a way around this or does he have to try getting another certificate with the date of the 1st dose?

OK, so it's not only me. Was thinking it was my browser (Opera) but tried Chrome with the same result.

I'm trying to complete some trades (buying crypto through the Binance platform) but cannot complete a purchase, I just get an error message at the end of the process. Any idea about what I'm doing wrong?

I have a laptop Asus Zenbook UX 305 which runs Win 10. I use a free* driver update program (Driver Booster) and recently it installed a new audio driver (Realtek something) that was very annoying (got a dashboard that wanted all kinds of input) so I deleted it. Now I'm not able to use earphones connected to the supplied jack, only via Bluetooth. Looking at the Device Manager it also looks like there is something missing for earphones. If anyone has any ideas about what I should do then please let me know. * The Driver Booster program is very annoying and I can't get past the "Upgrade to Pro version" spiel so looking for alternatives.

Yu must download the Mor Prom app. https://thethaiger.com/news/national/digital-vaccine-certificates-available-on-morprom-app-if-you-can-figure-it-out

That's commendable but of little use to a guy that lives in a hotel for a week.

Can any local expats or frequent visitors suggest places that serve a good Western breakfast? Thanks????

Thanks but I'm staying in Patong. Guess I'll just head to Bangla and have a look around.

Thank you for those very helpful replies.????

So I'm in Phuket/Patong for a week in the sandbox and would like to watch the games tonight. Which are the best footy pubs in the area please?

I have bought a separate Covid 100k $ insurance and have received a certificate so it looks like I should be OK for entry since according to Salerno's info the extra 400/40k requirement is not for Non O holders. I assume that's what I am classified as even though in the reentry permit stamp under "category" it says "Non-Imm."

Yes, I have the visa/extension (ret.) already and it's issued in Thailand.

Is the Non O-A issued outside Thailand and the plain O issued in Thailand? If that's the case then I guess I'll be OK.

You mean a certificate confirming I have a valid insurance with Aetna and cover limit? I have that as well as the insurance card with expiry date.

I have asked the agent I use for insurance policies if Aetna can upgrade my existing policy to include the required outpatient requirement. That's all I've done so far.

Could anyone that has been through the Phuket sandbox with a long-stay visa (in my case Non-O ret.) please answer this? If they strictly check and enforce this I need to upgrade my existing Aetna insurance to cover the required 40k Baht in outpatient treatment.

Have another look at the requirementsfor COE application. It states it takes 3 working days to complete each of the two steps. The only 15 day requirement is a time-out limit. https://coethailand.mfa.go.th/regis/step?language=en

Thanks for all the helpful info.???? I have one follow-up question that I forgot to include in my OP and that is will I be asked for proof of additional (to the Covid 100k $) insurance when applying for the COE? I have an Aetna insurance that I renew on an annual basis but the plan I've chosen does not seem to cover the outpatient requirement.

I'm researching how to get through the Sandbox program and there are several issues I need to clarify. 1. When looking at the Covid test booking site they're requesting my Shaba ID. Is that some kind of number/code I get allocated when doing a SHA+ booking? 2. When I finally get to book Covid tests can I do the final test on day 6, one day before my departure from Pukhet? 3. Do I need to get some kind of official paper/certificate before leaving Phuket (will fly up to Bkk)? 4. When buying the Convid 100$ insurance is it enough to get insurance until your next flight out if you can show the booking or does it have to extend to the expiry of your permit to stay (in my case Non-O retirement)? I would also like to know if there is a thread dedicated to the whole Sandbox program so that I don't start unnecessary threads. Thanks in advance to anyone that might reply with some info.????

I can find lots of companies whom are all desperate for business. That might be something that influences their answers. Look, if all you want to do is give these snarky replies I suggest you go and alleviate your obvious boredom in another thread, thanks.

I need to go to the airport next week late at night and my regular guy is out of business so could anyone recommend a reliable company/guy to replace him? Thanks!????

I wouldn't call Google my friend even if they would like me to regard them as such but a uselful tool it is nonetheless. As I stated in my post I need to fravel from one province to another while the site you linked to specifically says "Introducing JustGrab (Curfew Hours), a new ride service for essential travel. Our on-demand service enables passengers to travel to-from hospitals and airport during 8pm – 4am in Bangkok area" I have of course done Goole searches but haven't found anything official that specifically says whether this is allowed or not. I suspect that it will be OK but would just like to hear it from someone who's done it recently.

I have a flight leaving Bkk at 0300 hrs in the morning and will have to travel from Pattaya. Will I have to be at the airport before 2200 hrs or will the taxi driver be able to take me there around midnight if we can show my ticket reservation?
