Alright, calm down, she's not gonna marry you.

She wants cannabis to be legal and commercialised, but only on her terms. E.g. no pesky foreigners making money out of it. So she's basically advocating for state control and legislation to control cannabis, which is the opposite of decriminalisation and the free market. She can't have her (cannabis) cake and eat it. As for her xenophobia, she's not unlike 99% of the country. What amuses me about these kinds, is that they probably attend protests against state control while demanding 'demoocccwaaccy'.

Her view seems to be that Thais legally dealing cannabis is OK. But foreigners doing the same thing is bad. All that education and appearances in so 'many news media' and she's still a pretentious xenophobic simpleton.

You aren't knowledgable or intelligent enough to understand.

The Elon Musk of the East will have his excuses ready.

April 5: Raid and arrest on Flirt Bar from Bangkok cops. A British national named William Reece was arrested. April 6: Pattaya Police parade on Soi 6 showing it's safe

Isn't it strange they didn't report on the raid on Soi 6's Flirt Bar, owned by Night Wish Group, the night before in which the British manager and a Thai woman were arrested on suspicion of people trafficking. https://www.nationtv.tv/news/region/378910764

The 90 day counting still resets after leaving and returning to the country, regardless of whether there was a late report before leaving. Is that right? However, the late report stays on file and may be noticed later by an Immigration Officer who could apply the fine.

The old system worked ok for me. The new system has never been approved. I haven’t done any since before June 2022 (most recent visa) As I’ve been flying in an out a lot.

And is checking out if the country at airport Immigration the same as doing the report at the local immigration office.

I’ve done online previously in 2022 before the current year’s visa. It was always hit and miss.

I’m leaving while still inside the seven day grace period. I just don’t see anything official about grace periods and leaving during the grace period.

I tried an online report. It was not approved. From what i can figure out, Exiting and re-entering resets the 90 day period, but it could still incur a fine for the 6 days. I just want to make sure those 6 days won’t be 60 days late, even though I’ve been outside of Thailand.

It’s not clear whether exiting the country during the seven days after, equates to doing the 90 day report. Or if there is even a grace period allowed or seven days.

My 90 day report is a few days late and I’m leaving the country during the seven day ‘grace period’. The leaving date is on day 96. Will this still incur a fine? The immigration website says that ‘If a foreigner leaves the country and re-enters, the day count starts at 1 in every case.’ So according to the above, the 90 day report lateness won’t rack up even more late days when I return. Is that also right?

This is incorrect. The notification email from online 90 day reporting has now arrived and the online application was not approved. There are mentions online of a seven day grace period. Does this include leaving the country during the seven day period after 90 days. The 90 day reporting clock restarts when someone re-enters the country. So, For example , could someone leave on day 96, within the seven day grace period, and then have the clock reset when returning. would those six late days be liable for a fine?

I did this online and it looks like it was successful. The PDF was sent almost immediately after. There was no rejection email so looks like this was successful.

My money would be on them spotting it at Chaeng Wattana, especially in the current climate!

They won't have a record of it when the B visa is due for renewal in July?

My 90 day report is due on Friday. I have a flight booked to depart a week after the date. What will be the consequence if I miss the appointment at the immigration office and leave the country instead, albeit a week after the 90 day report due date? Will there be a fine at the airport?

The British boiler room boys who've poured millions into those tacky neon-lit shops across the country won't be happy when the drug is criminalised again.

Very interesting experience. Clearly it's better to avoid shipping items into Thailand, not least because of the corrupt customs officials.

When will they tackle Soi 6 in Pattaya?

Cheaper and easier just to stuff it all in suitcases and if necessary pay for the extra allowance.

Hello, I have a few boxes of personal items to send from the UK to Thailand. Can anybody recommend a decent service for this? What are the import costs on the Thai side?
