" Lets say I left USA on may 11 and arrive may 12 in thailand, what would the date of my departure in thailand be if i want all 90 days? "

Let's see, you want us to take the calendar out and do the counting for you? 12th and day of departure are included in the 90 days.

I agree, not to hard to figure out if you know how to count.

Get a calendar and you first need to find the date you will be arriving.

Find that date on your calendar and that will be day 1. Go to the next day which will be day 2 and keep going and when you get to 90, that will be the date you would need to depart Thailand.

Sure hope that helps make it clear.

Two Visa Exempts Entries permitted in a calender year.

Is this something new? I'm now returning home from my 3rd Visa Exemption this year and will do one more in December.

I did 4 last year and 5 the year before that and have done at least 4 per year for the past 15 years.

Please direct me to where you found this information.

I think false information given on the form sure isn't very helpful.

Why don't you get an international drivers licence?

Not heard of international drivers license.

However he did say he has a IDP (International Drivers Permit).

I have one (IDP) from the US that I must renew every year. I use it in Thailand for both car and motorbike.

Not sure what the requirements are in Vietnam.

Actually this has happened twice to me over the years coming to Thailand.

A Thai Girl has stolen my heart and after wising up, I got it back.

I got a certificate with my 1000 baht Rolex bought here in Pattaya.......

I didn't get a certificate, but did get a 'lifetime' warranty with my watch.

Any problems with the watch just take it back for a refund or exchange.

Well, one thing for certain it couldn't possibly be driver error.  

You're correct, how could it have been the driver's error when;

18 motorcycles, 2 cars and a bicycle pulled in front of the 'Tour Bus'

 there's a lot of illegal prostitution going on in pattaya and nana/ patpong areas of bangkok, as well as market and street sellers selling fake designer goods.

Don't even think about it!!!

Not unless you want to be looking over your shoulder the rest of your life, lol.

And no , it won't be the Thais you will need to worry about.

Bangkok expat, get out now, stay out a relationship like yours is doomed.

One day you might even wake up dead.

I woke up still not dead again today

Surachet added that 32 foreigners had been detained pending DNA tests.

I'm guessing these 32 foreigners didn't know who they were and asking for help to be identified.

There he produced a knife and robbed her of 200,000 yen, a camera, credit card and a little over 1,000 baht.

He apologized saying he needed money to pay off a debt. 

But he did apologized, so that makes it all right.

I guess the debt was owing someone yen, baht, camera and a credit card.

When you get on their website, it will have the prices for each type of car they offer.

My flight on 27 December issued the old style and those were the ones available at DMK. There again the airlines tend to keep fairly large stocks on board so it may be some time before the new ones filter through the system.

I got the new one on my Korean Air flight on December 11th.

Yes I agree a little harder to read the new one, damn it tuft getting old.

I have been using "expatcarrent" 4 time a year for the past several years. Nice newer cars, great customer service and easy reservations on their website.

I will be using them again in April.

I agree that the exchange rate is based on supply, demand and I'm sure the most important factor is the value of your home country's currency.

When I was there last week the exchange rate of the USD was up and down like a yoyo.

I think the low was 32.46 and the high was 32.72 and it change everyday except I think on Sundays.

I never had thought that the rate changes were a rip off, and high/low season doesn't have anything to do with the exchange rate.

I think the rip off is when TT is exchanging at 32.72 to the USD and the other yellow exchange place states they have the best rate at 32.50.

LeoTex

I have been using them on each of my trips, 4 a year for pass few years. I also recommend them.

As far as rentals go, I have found their cars are newer and in good maintained shape. Easy transaction with IMHO a very friendly staff.

Now going to check my spelling, before the "spellcheck" police wake up.

Right. Ok. 

I think it would be more believable if we referred to her as "Lounge Singer".

Every calendar year I come to Thailand 4 times, last year made 5 visits with not  a problem. All my trips are for 16 nights.

Sometime the immigration office has a little trouble sorting through all the stamps, but nothing has every been said coming and going.

Here, but they seem to be franchised stores and not the official stores with the efficient Apple style customer service, but I may be mistaken of course !

Not sure about Bangkok, but they have one in Tuk Com as well as Central Festival.

At least I did some customer service there, more than I got ordering on-line.

A real Apple store there would be nice.

I do 4 each year by air, last year had 5 with no problem.

It just take immigration a little while because of all the entries stamped.
