Entering Thailand was a breeze
Dan O replied to dj230's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Not always. It depends on your past history. Imm can ask anyone questions if they feel its appropriate. -
Visa agent not responding to calls
Dan O replied to Guderian's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
If your funds fall below the appropriate amount (or where never there for the appropriate amount and time frame to start with) your permission to stay is in violation. There may not be a specific law about using agents but the requirements for monetary levels are part of the Visa program and dependent on the category you could find yourself in violation. What would or could happen depends on a variety of issues but 1 option would be a 7 day notice to leave the country as your permission to stay could be cancelled. I'm noy saying it would happen but you know as well as I do that depending on the day of the week, direction of the wind and who is trying to make a point anything is possible. -

I only said it can have an impact on the visitor as it would if it were checked. If you haven't noticed the number of checks and extra verifications on some visa categories has increased in the last 6 months and is likely to continue Whats the ratio of people found, no way of knowing . -

Actually it would impact the person if they don't have the required funds as indicated for that category and a check by immigration was done. -
just buy a firestick yourself and you have almost unlimited options. You'll need a VPN to access some services that aren't broadcast in Thailand. Then add whatever subscription you want or need with the sports and other packages you want.

Laugh all you want but it's true. there's a huge contingent of posters that constantly refuse to jeopardize the remote chance of losing their passport so refuse to carry it with them but then many of the same ones think nothing of handing it over to an "agent" to fix their extensions because they're too lazy or dont have adequate funds and then cry the blues when the agent doesn't follow thru in a timely manner. If you come to live in another country, then you should put out the effort to do the required paperwork yourself. Certainly there are a few true exceptions for using a real agency but it's the lesser of people using agents. -

With very few exceptions people that use an agent are just asking for trouble at some point. It's great while it works until it doesnt and then they come crying on the forum on how to fix their problem. I guess some are just too important to spend the day taking care of their paperwork themselves. -
Its not a public bus or subway system and can govern the rules they wish to operate under. It's not a regulation to wear a mask it's a regulation suggestion from the bus and subway and MRT operators and also the Dept of Heath. I suspect the OP is making more than necessary considering the porr translation and understanding of gramatical structs Thai's use.

there's a little known natural reaction in Thailand based on the proximity to the equator. There' an unexplained positive attractions between, light poles, power pools, signs and parked trucks. I dont think it's real a magnetic attraction, more of a vortex mini blackhole effect that automatically sucks unsuspecting drivers traveling a certain speed. It also seems to affect the brake systems of vehicles traveling at that same speed. I think it should be studied more .

Travelling by plane with cannabis.
Dan O replied to Don Dunkelblum's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
Your article and statement are misleading. Cannabis with under 2% THC is legal for transport under medical use, regular full strength cannabis is not. Test the rule at your own risk. There's no need to carry any way as you can buy it tgere -
Here's one recent article and there are more. India is morning back to masking as well. This article also points out that the Chinese are avoiding television mask wearing in ceremonies and sporting events. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2022/12/16/commentary/world-commentary/unmasking-xi-jinping/

Your wrong. Airline are required to follow guidlaine issued UNDER IATA REGULATIONS. The the distinction country requires it the airlines must comply. the airline and transit countries can and do set their own guidelines along side the IATA regulations. Do some research. It happen during the hight of covid. As an example either Sweden or Switzerland mandated every transit passenger had to wear mask regardless of destination and I believe had provide a negative test for transit. Those were separate from IATA country guidlines
