Compared to 80-90% of US beef.

Go and check at the DLT. They should have her record in their system. My wife has a lifetime licence. We went to the DLT today to renew mine. She also got a plastic version of the lifetime licence today. She did not have the original with her, but she used her Thai ID. Her info was in their system.

I renewed the 5 year car licence at Taling Chan office today - my licence had expired on Wednesday. Renewal is is almost 6 years from now (23 July 2574). Renew after it expires, not before. From testing to getting the licence was 25 mins. Overall, about an hour in total.

Couple of questions. Can the "online test", after watching the videos, be done at any time prior to making an appointment to get the licence? Mine is due late July. I'm getting a new work permit shortly, though these apparently don't have the home address on them anymore (unlike my expired one). Also, what is the validity of the certificate of residence? Thanks..

How was she not detected leaving Thailand, with a bag was loaded with weed no less?

My mother gave up smoking years ago. It's too damn expensive.

you might be surprised what the 'average Thai' earns. which is 40K a month in Bangkok and Nonthaburi. Increasing the national park rate from 20 to 40 baht would not hurt them one bit.

How many Toyota and Honda dealerships have shut and been taken over by Chinse dealerships?

And in Australia you will be doing what exactly? Pay 20 bucks at a local cafe for a coffee and bun? Go home and watch the footy? At least your weekly doctor visits will be free 555

Another option would be a standalone ecu like haltech. Not sure of the price though. Just go with the second hand one. Good luck.

All finished now. When I handed my papers in I had organized for my school to cancel my WP that morning and bring me the paperwork. But having talked to the officer who first checked my papers, he said it was not necessary. So i contacted HR and asked her not to cancel it. Which she did. paperwork was fine, and I got a letter from out marriage registration office stating that then no longer kept the "single status" document that they said they required (not all offices require that). They accepted that, and also had an email from my embassy stating they cannot retroactively give a letter for that. Forgot to update the bankbook showing a transaction on the date, so wife sent her secretary to do that. Fortunately, we had a contact in immigration, so the process was smooth and in and out in less than 2 hours (waiting for the bankbook update took the longest.

edit, according my my wife when we visited immigration a week ago, they told up it should be cancelled that day or the day before applying for the Non-O.

Just bumping this up. My school contract and non-b are due to expire April 30 (WP also) I'm going to go to the Nonthaburi immigration office next Monday to submit my paperwork for a non-O based on marriage. My school plans to cancel my WP the same day. I'm concerned that if I have an issue with my paperwork and my WP gets cancelled. Is it possible to cancel my WP after I have submitted my paperwork for the non-0? What is the usual procedure?

This explains everything if you are confused 🤪

The "single status" documents are apparently only kept for 10 years before they are destroyed. I really don't remember what documents I may have obtained from the Australia embassy at that time. So we will go back to the registration office in Ratchaburi to see what they can do. At the very least, they should provide a document to state that the record no longer exists (once we have all the documents ready, we will approach immigration to check its adequate. The wheels may need a bit of greasing for any missing paperwork, but my wife is fine with that...thai style. lol Embassy response yesterday: Apologies for the incorrect information below. We misread and thought that you would like to request a document to prove that you are currently single, but we can see now that you have been married since 2001 and therefore the CNI information provided below unfortunately does not apply to your situation. The Embassy is unable to issue any other document to prove that you were single in the past. You may wish to convey this message to Thai Immigration again that you have already contacted the Embassy and we had no document or service that is applicable to you in this case.
