Dead police officer was guilty.

This is in back area of a supermarket shopping center and not near any schools or near any Westerners or main road.

I had a room in Ladphrao for around 3 years and didn't see many farangs or tourists there.
Was a great time ...????

For his provocating style all the staff reacted really nice too. If "kicked out" would look different.

another pointless post about a tourist resort in thailand being deserted and the subsequent hardship being experienced by the locals. what do you expect if foreign tourists are not allowed to enter the country?!

They didn't want Westerners anymore, Chinese were their new friends. Now all are gone, so they remember farangs again ?

What abt those with long term visa that expired (non b, extension stay) and will like to apply for another new long term visa, such as Ed visa or thailand elite?  

If you are older than 50 you can apply for a Non-O Retirement.
My Non-B expired mid of April and I got the amnesty bcoz they didn't extend my visa. Now I changed to Non-O.

Because of what ?

all makes perfect sense to me

if ur on an extension do everything as you have always done before, (yearly extension, 90 day)  

If you haven't done a 90 day since march 26th you have between August 1-31st to do so.

If ur on a VISA  get everything in line by sept 26th or be prepared to leave asap

If you need change to a Non B or...get ur paper work in order before Sept 26th

If you are on a Non-B and immigration doesn't extend it (what happened to me), change to a Non-O.

My annual extension (retirement) is due early November. 

When am supposed to do it? 

Prior to Sept 26? 

 

So you have a valid visa until early November.

Do you know whether the USD100K insurance policy document needs to specifically state "Covid-19"?

 

It is a bit confusing because I have read elsewhere that insurance covering only Covid-19 is insufficient whereas the requirement is for medical insurance "including" Covid-19.

 

In my case, I have a policy from Pacific Cross with coverage of USD1M/year and nil exclusions. I have read through the Policy Document and there is no mention of Covid-19, epidemics, pandemics etc. so presumably it is covered but would an embassy/consulate accept that or would they require a separately issued Certificate specifically mentioning Covid-19?

Why don't you contact your insurance company / broker instead of asking members of a forum who quote everything about their dreams last night or what a friend of a friend thinks to know ?

And the first sentence is "When Chinese Tourists..."

Bad news for some TV users. Good news for the rest of us. Looks like one more time the Immigration bureaucrats were silenced by some higher authority in the government. 

Agree with sentence 1 and 2. 3 might have a different reason. ????

How about we just accept some good news? We are all good for two more months. No crowding into Immigration rooms. Maybe they will even give up on 90 day reporting altogether. They don't want to have anything to do with dirty farang anyhow. I just hope they don't kick us out. I think we are safe as long as tourists are gone. We are the only game in town now.

You contradict your own positive starting comment from lane 2 on ?
And who's US and WE ?

Why the 26 and not the 30th? Does WW3 start the 27th? ????

26 is the last Saturday in September.
1. IOs don't want to start the new week with desperate and grumpy foreigners who are begging for a solution what they didn't care about since April ?
2. Less traffic jam to Swampy on Sunday 27th ?

The sound of 50,000 sighs relief heard across the country. An extra 55 days to get your visa sh *t together or plan an exit strategy. 

Or lean back again, relax, doing nothing and start asking for solutions on several forums with "experts" from September 23rd on?

Congrats on your 11,000th post @Jonathan Fairfield.

 

Any more info on the "will allow foreigners in Thailand to either obtain a new visa" part, or is it not something there's actually info about yet?

What else to do between 2 beers? ????

Wow 50 people?!

Indeed Thai authorities should be under high pressure with such a crowd wanting to enter in the country

This will push the economy and tourism ????

Travel bubbles mean that Chinese, Japanese, Korean Tour Groups come into Thailand for 3,4 or 5days. It is the wrong approach. If some of these people bring the virus with them, they can not be tracked, because they have already left, when it is found out.

It would be more wise, to let those foreigners first in, who want to stay for several months. They can be put on a 14day quarantine in their hotels, condos, houses, tested after 12,13 days and when negative are not a risk to Thailand.

I guess you don't speak about tourists.
Or how many people can go on vaccation for "several months"?

And again starts another discussion... i get sick of it.. 

I can't understand why these guys speculate and discuss about visas on a forum where everyone was a virus scientist in the last few months.
Too easy to contact immigration or not confusing enough?

Quote The amended regulations stipulate that Thai flights, or flights that land in the Kingdom for any purpose, cannot allow passengers to leave the plane, EndQuote

 

So if you may not leave the plane, what is the point of buying the ticket to Thailand.   And as to the effect on the tourist industry, I'm not going down that route.

 

Suspect that there is either a reporting or translation error here.

The error is that YOU didn't understand what you read.

With passengers coming with Thai AirAsia X XJ808 flights in the Don Mueang-Tianjin route 5 people were infected with Covid, while the passengers on Thai Lion Air Flight SL117 on the Bangkok-Guangzhou route on 7 July 2020 were infected with 6 people.
 

Following this, it was found that the services of both airlines are charter flights. That fly to carry passengers Which is Chinese From Kuala Lumpur And Jakarta returned to his domicile

However, both of the above routes Originated from Kuala Lumpur and Jakarta But since both of the above mentioned cities Does not have the right to fly into Tianjin and Guangzhou of China, causing to fly into Bangkok to use the rights that both airlines have Continue flying to China. Under the new flight code starting from Thailand to China Which passengers did not leave the plane to Bangkok or change to a new plane in any way But only on the plane And not receiving passengers from Thailand in any way, it is assumed that all 11 people are infected from the country of origin

 

So the airlines just have to change the flight codes and a new loop hole around laws and regulations of another country is wide open.
This way laws and regulations make sense...

Until and when a vaccine will be found there are no other safe ways to contain the virus and stam the pandemic, if there was, every other country in the world would have done it already... so do what many others governments did, pay and support people and business to sit home... 

Are you sure that you have the right infos ?

What about the staff members of WING 41 from Chiang Mai who have been in the same hotel too ?
