The famous song " tattoo run run, tattoo run run"

@ Mc Gregor 21 I went on August 8th with my wife ( European) to Ban Pakkard border check from Sattahip. The purpose was to get out of thailand to cancel our O A visa we wanted to change for a O one for obvious reasons. We took the same road and experienced the same heavy rains and heavy traffic conditions and surely the same very dangerous road section about 40 km before reaching the border. As you said, I confirm this border point is nicely organized and very quiet. Easy parking and plenty of stores. I think we met the same lady at the Thai counter where she proposed us a full service for 2700 thb including the Cambodian visa cost.Contrarily to you who had to work and walk,, and luckily for us, she took our passports, filled the TM 6 form herself( we just had to sign) and we stayed relaxing on a chair time for them to manage everything on the Cambodian side where we never put a single foot. After 15/ 20 mn, she was back with our passports containing the Cambodian visa, came with us back to the Thai immigration counter where we got our visa exempt stamp. Done deal smoothly, effortlessly and with nice smile. Two days after we went to our local immigration office to apply for the O visa. We had completed with great care the whole files requested in 2 exemplars. All was done there in less than an hour. They kept our passports and said it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get the visa for 3 months, to be extended to a 1 year one. 12 days later we got a SMS message on our phone to go and pick up our passports. We got our 3 month new visa and will process the extension soon, no earlier than 30 days before expiration date. So it was worth the long trip and hope everybody doing the same will get the same efficient process at a very fair service price.

And I suppose the honesty skills start at the highest level. I will " watch" you Prawit......

Just go on the Thai roads you will see Formula 1............... OK not driven by world champions Just kidding

Thailand is a national park of sell fish. Never hook them dirty Farangs.......

your Spanish is maybe terrible but Thai English is even more terrible. So in theory you cannot leave in both countries with your wonderful mother tong....???? Cuidate hombre.... ( nine years in Argentina for me)

this is absolutely normal. Poles are voluntarily leaning to avoid any hard contact with pick ups????

same situation on Sukhumvit South ( Najomtien to almost Sattahip, where works are started everywhere and the traffic situation specially during week ends is a nightmare. And looking at the magnitude of the works, it s gonna be for a long time.

I think there a very positive for us " don't t f...k the foreigners anymore" so no more double pricing, no more scams all is right????????

The good news is that at least one person is trusting the TAT delirium tremens. Go ahead guys.....

Coronation day is over this year. Please wait until 2556......????

What is amazing is that COVID went from and everyday/hour hypo to almost nothing in media in France for example when Ukraine war started and during all the election process. Now the journalist so to speak, have nothing to chew and COVID is back again just before summer holidays with alarming messages, never ending contradictory previsions from pseudo experts etc...... So YES the COVID does exist and the contamination do ups and downs BUT the fear mongering is back to control the populace and to avoid talking about the real problems ( recession, inflation, social troubles etc....)

While they are training on Jomtien beach, they could also do a bit of jogging and control the beach nightmare created every day by hundreds of vendors (and legal restaurants) at the end of Jomtien beach, Najomtien location. It becomes worse week after week, quite impossible to even walk on pavement, traffic jams while some are double parking on a narrow road, awful seat and equipment storage along the road, without speaking about the state of the sand the morning after......

I would agree with you should the countries they are coming from accept my wife wearing a bikini on their beaches..... By the way, I think you never visited France recently....... Maybe the current situation of emigration in this country would make you think slightly differently...

Pick up drivers.......often high on everything except brain cells........ one thing came to my mind> If the woman heard the honk did she not look at the wrong side by reflex......which doesn't give any excuse to the pick up driver obviously a moron.... My thoughts go to the husband who came to spend happy holidays in couple....... very sad
