  1. This is not the 'main' Fast Track from your explanation but maybe I misunderstood in which case apologies. If for example arriving at C gates, there is a fast track comprising 4 counters on the right of the immigration lanes for Thai Nationals. 99% of the time I use the lanes for Thai Nationals as I have PR and in my experience few if any people queueing and processing of Thai Nationals who don not use the auto channels is quick. Above experience is based on about 100 arrivals since the autochannel for PRs was out of operation in December 2019. The 'main' Fast Track is about 100m further. Prior to the immigration lanes mentioned in above para there are signs giving the waiting time in each immigration area (main Fast Track and the immigration zones for non Thai Nationals).
  2. What reporting? If hospitalisation in Thailand no action required with Immigration; if hospitalisation overseas and you are worried about not returning to Thailand until after expiry of the stamps in passport and PR book as your earlier terminology, then extend for a year from the date you apply to do so.
  3. Good comment; people ignore this. I have purchased 3 BMW coupes new in Thailand and the only choice I have had is to add or change things such as different wheels all at more cost.
  4. Such touching lyrics and beautiful voice. First saw her in concert in 2002 and still listen to this song especially when travelling and away from Thai wife and family. 2002 seems like yesterday when I listen to the song.
  5. Non-Quota Immigrant Visa states Multiple, as per the application form on which there is a choice. If you have a multiple on your NQIV in your passport then you can travel overseas every day until the day to be utilised by.
  6. Cannot answer your question specifically, but with DTAC yes.

    Cheap barbers

    Soi Setthi Thai Sap between Sukhumvit 16 and 22. On Sukhumvit 22 there is a barber shop that has been in the same location for 30 years or more, cost is about 100 Baht, Easy Cut has many locations - cost is 150 Baht. There are many barber shops even in expensive areas that have survived with the cost in some ass low as 60 Baht.
  8. If you want to do what you propose arrive at 10:30 am and collect at 11:30 or arrive at 11:15 to 11:30 have lunch and collect at 1:00 pm. Return next day not necessary. Only issuing new white book (replacement for blue or white) takes more than the same day, i.e 3 working days.
  9. Applied at SCB branch at 14:00, received approval by SMS 08:00 following day.
  10. In Chiang Mai OP may contact: SUMALEE JENNAPA ADVOCATES & SOLICITORS
  11. To the OP suggest 1 or both of: - ask a reputable lawyer if you can find one - go to the PR section in Immigration at CW and ask or send someone knowledgeable to ask for a friend
  12. Autochannel which PRs could use has been out of use since December 2019. Previous to this date I had used auto channel at least 100 times leaving SVB and same time entering. I have departed SVB on an international flight about 20 times in the last year, all on TG first or business class. Frequently after passing though TG fast track I have walked to the Immigration counter where autogates are and enquired as to the status. Invariably the answer regarding when the autogates will be open has been different. Two days ago the answer was waiting for the new Government. Recently on a related topic I read about reopening of autogates for Hong Kong and Singapore passport holders next year.
  13. I went to a large branch of SCB in Central Bangkok yesterday and was advised that registering for face recognition is for Thai Nationals only. Registering for my wife took about 2 minutes.
  14. On the App you can manage both accounts, but the joint account can only be managed by one person. I have had the App for years managing this way and never had any problems.
  15. Not sure what the point of your post is. I know many females who work for donors, accountants, lawyers, etc who would be interested in a relationship with a non Thai, non Asian man. These include females that I previously employed. Probably you are familiar with different types of people to those in the professional CBD in Bangkok.
  16. Gym, companies that you engage for accounting and legal services, local market where people go at lunchtime, etc. There are hundreds of single, young, professional females working for multinational companies, international donors, etc within a few minutes walk from where I live. Sit down, enjoy lunch, smile....Go to the gym even if you don't enjoy it - you may be surprised what you will find.
  17. As h90 stated, try Union Space for example.
  18. KW Services Thonglor Soi 20; another on Rama II.
  19. Following was my report from 8 January 2023 on Camerata's Guide.....: 'Departing today and having used fast track, enquired about the status of autochannel. I was informed that system upgrade is now complete and Immigration is waiting for the approval of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.' Situation departing yesterday was the same. There are about 4 gates which I understand are intended to be used for PR holders on departure. PR holders can use the lanes for Thai PP holders.
  20. Having worked for and still working for ADB and WB as an Individual Consultant in Thailand, Vietnam and other countries, attended many meetings with JICA in Thailand and regional countries, engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers and worked with others in the big four, there are far more attractive, classy, elegant and smart eligible females in Thailand and other regional countries than there are eligible men in the eyes of these women. Why are there so many single, never married women who do not have children in Thailand?
  21. Only once! You could train other gullible wallies who cannot think further than their head.
  22. Go to the office in the area that you live in. Your requirements seem to be simple and both offices that you mention and others in Bangkok should provide the service that you want.
  23. You should contact Immigration and find out which address the letter will be sent to especially if you are expecting it soon. In my case I was overseas on business when the letter was sent and received. Letter stated 'within 7 days' but actually I went to Immigration between 14 and 21 days after notifying Immigration that I could not attend with 7 days. it was not a problem, but this was 7-8 years ago and for a short delay.
  24. Departing today and having used fast track, enquired about the status of autochannel. I was informed that system upgrade is now complete and Immigration is waiting for the approval of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
