Does anyone know what year they relocated to their current location in Jomtien Soi 5?

Around September 2006.  I found a Pattaya Mail news story saying there was a Buddhist opening ceremony on Friday September 7th of that year.

Just read....somewhere?.....that the online report has to be completed between day 15 and day 7 before the next reporting date??

 

Does everyone else already know that?

Someone posted a sign from one immigration office that said that but the official rule is 15 days up until the deadline.

The official text published in the Government Gazette, in Thai language, is here:

https://ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/documents/37565.pdf

That entry refers to DTV rules.  Change to 37563.pdf for VE60 related entry.

Another refusal here when submitted online following a trip outside Thailand.  Jomtien immigration office.  No reason given this time which I have received in the past.

This was also using a new account following the previous email address being discontinued, but not sure if that had any effect on the outcome.

When you set up a new transfer in Revolut it asks for the country, currency, account number, BIC/Swift, First, middle and last names and an optional email address.

Have you entered these?

That's very helpful. I'll contact Wise and see if they can provide me with documents to verify it has indeed been international transfers.

They can't.

It's all explained here:

This pdf appears to be old as it contains outdated information (deductions, allowances,...).

PS; The article appears to be undated!

First archive copy found dated 1st July 2022.

I think OP means the Cars For Sale (in Thailand) section.

The Start New Topic button doesn't appear there for me either, using Firefox and Win11 on laptop.

As I have said in a previous answer, if you keep a GBP balance which can be instantly converted to THB into a THB WISE account, you can watch out for good rates, build up a THB balance, then send it as THB to THB. I think it is marginally cheaper that way as well.

Yes, but I prefer to do my banking once a month and forget about it.  Not enough gains to be had for the additional effort IMO.

YMMV.

So you do not have a specific GBP, or other currency account with WISE

I have GBP and THB accounts as I think they're created by default as I use these currencies, but balance is always zero as I use Wise purely as a transfer service.  This is how they started out and I've just continued with the same arrangements.

Unlimited at speeds such as 15, 20 mbps are not available for both dtac and True.

True's Thor sim was mentioned on here recently as being unlimited, 15Mbps and 2,899 THB.

OP.  You have 10 images there from yesterday, but sorry I've never used it so don't know how to delete anything.

How could you use the Sri Racha office for reporting online?

When you apply online you enter your address.  The system sends it to the appropriate office for processing based on that address.

Note though that sandyf's experience was in mid 2023 and as has been explained to you, the system has changed since then.

Should it be needed, how would you prove your exit from thailand without a stamp.

Mentioned a few posts up - keep your boarding passes.  Not 100% guaranteed but a good base.

Yep....presumably....that is why I sailed through

I thnk the face scan system being referred to removes the need to show your boarding pass/passport from check-in/bag drop to boarding as identification is intended to be done by facial recognition.  It's not the camera at the immigration checkpoint.

The system was supposed to go live on December 1st but there's been no reports on here of it being operational since then.

Did you experience that?

I called DTAC on 1678 3 times before, no answer. I'm using the hotspot on my Iphone 14 connected to my laptop.

Another option is to contact them on Facebook.  I found them quite responsive on there when I broke the 100GB allowance a while back, when thinking I had unlimited.

This minibus mentioned upthread seems still to be operating.

I don't see how a border bounce helps you.  I think Thailand (and almost every other country) requires you to have a minimum of 6 months before your passport expires to enter the country.   Canada is likely the only country that will allow you to enter with your current passport.

Thailand has no such requirement for Canadian (and many other) passport holders.  They only require it to be valid for the period of intended stay.

If we check luggage in for the complete journey in Perth then we will not be able to leave the airport as we will be checked in for the complete journey I.e. Perth - BKK-LHR

They are just as wrong with their advice this time as they were about you needing a transit visa.

Trying to make calls in transit in Dubai for an example could be a pain and stressful.

They won't even answer if it's the small hours of the morning.

 Interesting - thanks. With respect, why then do the airport wheelchair staff wear the red "Air Asia" ribbons around their necks to display their ID cards? This was the case recently at Siem Reap Angkor Airport, and Chiang Mai Airport. 

They've probably got a selection of lanyards and put on the one for whichever airline they're currently operating for.

Skyscanner shows me prices starting at 35.000 baht for a direct flight.

 

W#hy you not provide evidence?

Prices in AUD.  Less than 20,000 THB.

I know many of you will say "what a load of BS" but these are MY experiences with Air Asia and long may they continue. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I've never had any significant problem with them either, but to clarify your post the wheelchair services are provided by the airports, not the airlines.
