  1. When I imported the law was that only one importer per particular product was allowed. In theory if you order something that already has an official importer it won't get past customs. In reality, who knows?

    Depends what's in the customs declaration I put "personal items, vitamins" and it was rejected.

  2. Hi There
    I was  recently checking out a few  online sites selling UK   food items   (dry foods ,tinned foods)
    However  most sited don't mention import taxes or state that you should check this out yourself before placing order
     
    Has  anyone used any of these companies   and if so what would be the percentage of import  tax  on arrival in Thailand ,is shipping costs liable to tax as well ??
     
    is there a website to calculate import taxes??
     
    Any relevant info appreciated   Thanks  

    I think you need a special license to import food, drinks, even vitamins. I had some multi-vitamins the by Thai customs fit but having a import license. It was only a couple of bottles

  4. Is there a way the notebook get wake-up from sleep mode as soon the power cable is plugged win? Windows 7.
     
    I googled it but couldn't found any information.
     
    I play around.... The reason, sometimes in my condo they cut the electricity for several hours for maintenance work. Then I go out. My goal, to figure out when the power comes back. I thought, ok, I just ping my no-ip ddns adress. If no answer, still no electricity. But this won't work since my router doesn't support no-ip. I use a they client on my notebook. But the battery keeps the notebook only 1 1/2 hours alive. So, the no-ip client will not be able to update the new IP address.
     
    Probably there is no way to solve this. But maybe I miss something.

    There's such a thing as wake-on-lan which could do it via a ping bit I don't know how. Look in the BIOS

  5. I am looking for some advise regarding the renewal of my 2 year motorcycle license in Chiangmai. I have only got a single entry tourist visa. Will they accept this visa? What documents do I need to provide.
    Your help in this matter would be gratefully appreciated.
     

    Yes you can.
    I went through the whole process of getting a new licence a year ago in a tourist visa.
    There's other threads on it.
    But it was
    Passport
    Cert of residence
    Medical certificate
    My UK license

  6. It's been about 6 months or so since I was last there so I'll ask, did they renovate?
     
    It's always been a dump and the lanes often fail but one has no choice since it's now the only place left to bowl around the CM area.

    I doubt it. Isn't there talk of Kad being knocked down and be stuff built.

  7. Central Airport and Festival have free shuttles that run throughout the day.
    Good service that is sadly underutilized probably because the hotels don't seem to advertise it, though timetables are available from some.
     
    If needing transport to get there, think about using them as they might cease if not enough customers. I was told that the one to Promenada is no more, probably for that reason. Pity, as people going to the immigration office used it.

    Do you have any links or flyers etc so we can find out when & where they go.

  8. I'd recommend buying salad items from the main market no cooking only chopping.
    Then buy cooked meat like a whole chicken, grilled fish, etc. Just enough to last 3-4days that's the shelf life you'll get after it's cooler and placed in the fridge.
    Buy a bag of eggs for either on what ever nice bread /toast or omelette with some of the chopped veg you've already got.
    Interchange it with bagged curries, cooked rice or cooked sweet potato or corn from your local market.
    Fruit museli & yoghurt is good value of you get a 1kg bag and a large tub of yoghurt.
    All cost effective healthy food that you have reasonable knowledge don't have extra added stuff like the spoonfuls of sugar they just love to add.
    Balanced​ with eating at a locals food place will keep the variety sufficient.

  9. That varies depending on the passport issuing authority. Some passports have pages at the front that are supposed to be used for endorsements. Do those pages have any markings to indicate that they have a special use? Even if they do, you may find some consulates and immigration offices willing to use them for other than their strictly intended purpose, but you cannot rely on that.

    There is one side opposite the photo page that is reserved for official observations. Every other page is blank/useable.
    It's a newish UK passport mid 2015, and it's getting full fast.

    Maybe they can be used as emergency /warning pages one the rest are full.

  10. Even Google news doesn't work. Not on pc not on Android. There I never used to log in. Strange

    What about Google play?
    Try uninstall and reinstall the broken apps.
    Check security permission & app permissions.
