mhhhh ..than she lied to me .... she told me its 3.500 Baht ..her brother had to pay this amount .. 

thank you 

I stay in Pattaya with a Thai lady from Isaan. She is driving my old Scooter .. without driving license. How can she get a Thai Motorbike driving license? Can she apply here in Pattaya for the Motorbike driving license or has she go back to her home province? What documents she need .. and how much does the license cost? What kind of exam a Thai National has to pass ?

buy good tires (e.g. the brands  Continental or Schwalbe) from a bicycle dealer in Thailand. NOT lazada ..many bicycle tires from lazada are fake. A good tire costs around 1.500 Baht.

For a price of 8.000 Baht its impossible to buy a good bike. A acceptable bicycle starts around 20.000 baht (with hydraulic breaks). Thai clima kill a cheap bicycle very soon.

I go in Thailand every year around 15.000 km with my bicycle...

No, do your arithmetic again. At cheapest 500 x 4 = 2000. Worst 5 x 1000 = 5000. Not much difference to get rid of a Swastika!

Thanks ..it was also my impression that the costs she mentioned are too low... 5.000 would be acceptable.

Lady in Pattaya want to re-model her damaged nose. The minimum "Nose Job" is removing of a pimple (pimple is result of a cheap nose repair some years ago). Perfect would be a complete restore of the nose tip. What clinics can be recommended in Pattaya, and and idea of costs? Thanks 

Lady in Pattaya regrets some of her Tattoos. Who is able to remove (recommendations with contact data)? What prices and how many sessions can be expected? Ladys opinion: Removing her 2 small Tattoos at the wrists would cost between 500 and 1.000 Baht each and needs 4-5 sessions. So in total 1.000-2.000 Baht for removing the 2 Tattoos. 

@kidneyw Thank you for the form. Exactly something like this I couldnt find.

I stay in Thailand with an Extension of Non-Immigrant-O-Visa, valid until September 2023. Yesterday I bought a new Motorbike and need a "Letter / Certificate of Residence". I would like to prepare all documents for immigration in Jomtien and also the needed form. In the internet I got the information that I need to fill out the form "TM18". I download TM.18 ..but the name of the form TM.18 is "Application for Substitute of Certificate of Residence" .. so my question:

Whats the name of the relevant form to get the "Certificate of Residence" to buy a motorbike and where can I download the "Jomtien Version"?

Which documents are needed?

I would prefer to prepare all documents (including the form) before I go to the overcrowded Immigration Office.

Thank you for advice 

I want to buy a honda click or honda lead..today I visit the shops of Mityon at south pattaya road .. at interception of 3rd road with south pattaya road have been 5 people and i was only customer .. but noone communicate with me .. than i went to corner south pattaya soi buakao.. the sales guy accept me as potential customer .. but as I ask him to show me the "storage under the seat of the honda lead" he told me ..its locked... and the prices of honda click 125i was 2.000 baht more than the recommendation of honda thailand .. whats your experience?

Thank you for the replies. I have been at Jomtien immigration...and first they told me to pay a fine of 2.000 baht because I was finally 1 day too late. (24 August+90 days+7 days). I used google calculation .. " 24 August 2022 plus 97 days ..and it says 29 November 2022... and thanks to mercy of Jomtien Immigration they didnt fine me...

I stay since some years at yearly extensions (based on retirement) of a Non-Immigrant-O Visa.

At 24 August 22 I re-entered Thailand

At 5 September 22 I was granted the Extension until 11 September 2023.

When I have to do the 90-day-report? Immigration in Jomtien

Data Rates at mobile phone always depends on location and the total network usage. If you get 5 MBps its really ok for most mobile phone applications. Also really enough for high-res-Video at mobile phone. come down ..if you need fast internet use cable or fixed internet ..but not mobile phone. christmas and new year you will experience a real diseaster at the network speed of mobile phone

Most of those we know are now going back to the Cambodian border runs, which will at least give them 45 days now instead of 30. One friend is going on his first border run since Covid next week. He's managed 7 years without returning to Laos through border runs 

How much does the Border run to Cambodia costs for Laos Nationals ..beside travel costs?

A National from Laos arrived in Thailand Middle of July 2022 and stay actually with 60-days (Covid?)  "extension of stay" until middle of October 2022 in Thailand. Are (60 days) Covid-"Extensions of stay" still available? What other cheap-easy-to-get visa possibilities have Laos Nationals? immigration is Jomtien

you all mention good points ..thank you. I gave her in total something around 60.000 baht for 3 month .. was also her birthday included .. and yes .. I tried to be genereous at her birthday.. she never had a birthday party in her life .. her family and her kids have been never at the sea .. never holiday... and this was not a lie.  this generousity was maybe a mistake .. but everyone make mistake .. and now I guess she make a big mistake .. I think she tried to fool me .. this is not a good idea ..the story goes on ...

why I open this item? Its first time I have the impression my girlfriend wants to rip me off... I assume its not her idea ..but her extended family... because sometimes I was too generous. I just know my girlfriend some month .. before everything was ok... until I went for some time to germany and gave her a bigger amount of money for her expenses and family support .. (she is 31 years old..but I send her back to school .. massage and english) .. as I leave end of July I gave her in total in advance around (3*15.000 for August, September, October) and ..as her family visit us .. their children get our "Saving Pork" money of around 7.000 Baht and a little extra also... so in total nearly 60.000 .. and now all money is gone???? mmhhhh ..something fishy ....

again ..my girlfriend is not bad.. in my opinion .. but her family ... I dont know... 

Thank you for all recommendations ... I also helped often Thai people ..but always I tried to get some verifications ..like  pictures ..bills etc etc .. and yes... this time I have big doubts...

IMO there is no way a Thai public hospital should be charging 18,000 baht for a Thai citizen's broken leg, irrespective of the circumstances.

I agree .. but how can I prove? Anyone here in the forum has experience?

In your shoes, I would be asking my GF to show me the bill from the hospital.

If she can't or won't, she is trying it on

 

Yes .... I asked also for the bill ... item pending ....

Some days ago I got a request from my lovely girlfriend to cover the costs of a accident. The case: Her 12 year old daughter in rural Isaan went with the old Motorbike of her family to the school. The motorbike slide away and in this accident her daughter broke the lower leg. No third party involved. The bill for some days in the public hospital: 18.000 Baht. Now my lovely girlfriend told me that I have to cover the costs. The reason:  The Thai public health Insurance scheme  (her family are poor farmers) dont cover the costs for accidents which are caused by Motorbikes without insurance. IS THIS THE TRUTH?
