  1. Yes, me too I thought that maybe the problem could be the term "medical certificate".
  2. Hello everyone, I need a dental implant, so I contacted a dental clinic I had used last year. I explained that, following an initial appointment to determine the necessary procedures and set up a treatment schedule, I would need a medical certificate to support a visa application. The certificate should ideally include: The nature of the treatment (e.g., dental implant with crown restoration) The estimated duration (e.g., 6 to 9 months) Confirmation that multiple appointments and follow-ups are required (e.g., for osseointegration, crown placement, and post-op checkups) My full name and the dentist’s, along with the date, their signature, and the clinic’s stamp Ideally, the clinic’s license or registration number, if available The clinic replied that, as a clinic, they are not authorized to issue medical certificates, and that I should contact a hospital instead. Does this response seem normal to you? Has anyone encountered something like this before? Thank you!
  3. Thanks but you sent me Padang Besar to Butterworth. But you're right, I found this : https://www.train36.com/padang-besar-hat-yai-shuttle-train.html Thanks again!
  4. Thanks for your answer and your help. Some of the backups you mentioned don't work for me, I don't want to use van (too many accidents).
  5. What about flying to Penang or KL, stay 2 nights, and bouncing back to Thailand via Padang Besar? Seems ok? (already 6 months in Thailand in 2025 but 0 land border). BTW, are they the 2 daily trains from Padang Besar to Hat Yai still working?
  6. I made a round trip Bangkok Da Nang Bangkok two months ago: they asked me for an onward ticket at Suvarnabhumi, they didn't in Da Nang.
  7. Thanks for your help. No similar plan for Padang Besar ? It's only 50 minutes by train.
  8. Thank you. But I'm not ready to do this, even for a 5 years visa.
  9. Orthodontics seems a bit problematic given my age. An implant seems more realistic — one of my teeth actually ended up breaking in March and is now missing... Thank you for your comments and for your help!
  10. It's a bit unclear to me. In particular, "short" seems to be the opposite of "long-term visa."
  11. You must be right but even dental treatment for more than 6 months seems exceptionally long. What kind of dental treatment lasts more than 6 months?
  12. Yes but aroi mac mac ! 😁 Seriously, it's so expensive ? Otherwise, so that's it ? Muay thai, thai cooking, medical treatment... What else for soft power ?
  13. Really ? Dental treatment doesn't need 5 years... ?
  14. Hi Scouse123, thank you for your report. Regarding: "The 5-year e-Visa was granted by the Royal Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh in January 2025." — how long did you have to wait? I’m not sure I’m eligible for a DTV, even though I’ve been running commercial websites since 1999. I could still apply for a "standard" 2-month e-Visa. I’ve already done this from Korea. Although I submitted all the requested documents, I had to wait two weeks, and they still asked for additional paperwork. Once I sent the extra documents, I received the e-Visa within 24 hours. So my question is: how long did you have to wait for the e-Visa to be emailed to you after submitting your application? BTW, if anyone has experience getting an e-Visa through a Thai embassy in another East Asian country — other than Cambodia, like Malaysia, Laos, Vietnam, Japan, etc. — I'm interested! Thank you.
  15. ??? It seems you're the only well-meaning and knowledgeable people using "rolling" year in this post... ?
  16. I've carefully checked: in 2024 I stayed less than 6 months in Thailand (175 days). I made 1 border run in Nong Khai and stayed 10 days in Hong Kong. The border run was the first in many years. And in 2025 I came in February 18 with a tourist visa. So, if they refuse me at Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang, nobody is going to be accepted.
