And the rules have changed effective on Dec 1.

I added my Thai partner as my beneficiary on my 800k account at Bangkok Bank. Filled out paperwork, they issued a new passbook with the same account number showing only my Na,e printed on the front page and then he signed the passbook in the back under my own signature where they are both only visible under a black light. I’ve been using that passbook every year for my extensions of stay with no problem.

I wonder how long the lines will be for those waiting for the ATK test…. And where will they wait for the results? …and what happens if they test positive? So many question…..so few answers. Maybe they’ll just fly by the seats of their pants……. Oh wait! That’s what they’re doing now!

What was that famous quote from French Royalty? Oh ya, “Let them eat cake!” Now, where is “Madame Defarge” hanging out?

Is it not possible to open a Thai company and put the house in the company’s name?

Note that in Chiang Mai (yesterday) they had a sign posted saying that they don’t do bank transfers and cash is the only option.

You say,” hopefully I won’t need one with my oa visa.” Will you be planning to apply for an extension of stay? If so you’ll definitely need one!

I’m not holding my breath…..

Covid insurance is required by Thailand Pass to gain reentry to the country right now. It’s over and above the insurance required for an extension of stay on an OA visa.

Even the “top officials” have left Thailand to stay in an EU country….

And now there’s a gun held to the country’s economy! Better wrest it away before another collapse occurs

Ya. Good luck getting a definitive answer from the MFA on the length of time required for COVID insurance for expats already covered by immigration required insurance for long stay visas

thanks for the reply. I respect your opinion!

Goes to the adage, “never a borrower or lender be!”

Right!? How screwed up is that?

How do you feel about two women marrying? Both of them could possibly breast feed. Oh wait, was either of them pregnant or did they adopt?

Test kits are available in pharmacies and…….I saw them for sale at TOPS in Central Festival. They’re cheap, easy to take(follow the instructions) and IF you should get a positive result you can retake the test to be sure you didn’t get a false positives and save yourself from being carted off to no mans land until you “recover.”

Does this mean I could cancel my VPN subscription ?

Ya. let him try to get a Thailand Pass online. Who will administer his Covid test on arrival?

Maybe it’s the A380-neo

How about continuing the vax campaign until everyone has had 2 jabs…..and a booster for those over 65 or working in public facing jobs??

Consider Qatar. The flight is a bit longer but the stopover in Doha allows time to stretch and relax. If your flying business class, Qatar outshines them all.

If I was to trust anyone in regards to my health I’d trust the Swiss authorities.

What is the point of retesting fully vaccinated arriving intl passengers when they’ve had an Rt-pcr test no longer than three days prior to getting on a plane? Non vaxxed passengers go to quarantine where testing can take place, no?

Just print your email and carry it…and a few copies with you.
