  1. 2. You apply for membership of the program. The visa is just a (major) benefit. During your membership you can affix the visa in your passport. Affix can be done when you arrive in Thailand at the airport or at CW. 3. You can use the visa during your membership. If you arrive and your passport is valid for more then 5 years the visa will be valid for the 5 years from affix. Yearly extension of stay is still required if you do not leave the country.
  2. Aug 02, PM cancels planned power tariff hike. The higher tariff was due between September and December 2022. The power tariff was to rise to 4.72 baht per kilowatt hour, up from a rate of 4 baht. The Ft is expected to rise to 0.93 baht per kilowatt hour, up from 0.24 baht.
  3. Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Weather can change from hour-to-hour, day-to-day, month-to-month or even year-to-year. A region's weather patterns, usually tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its climate.
  4. I keep finding it strange that you can get the 12-month statement on your mobile app within 5 minutes and must wait for few days when visiting the local branch. I would still pay the 200 baht and wait 5 minutes to get the printed statement if they could get it while I wait at the branch. However, it is what it is, and I now request the 12-month statement from the branch a week before I go to immigration. The bank calls me when they have received the statement and it is ready to collect. Next day I go to immigration. No stress. No worries.
  5. Pfizer and Moderna are available. You choose when you receive your registration form at door 2. Follow the arrows on the floor to go to the correct section. Walk-in is available, however since last Saturday (July 9) it has been busy. Before the weekend there was no waiting time at all. The news broke more covid cases are predicted, now a lot of people want their booster shot, so busy and longer waiting lines. Better to make an appointment.
  6. Immigration can do a lot of things better and more efficiently. However, this is the way they work, and we have to deal with it. Don't worry. You will be fine on 18th. No overstay. Under consideration is valid for stay, until you receive your extension.
  7. https://ratchakitcha2.soc.go.th/pdfdownload/?id=139D146S0000000002600 ... Cancellation of registration for entry into the Kingdom of Thailand for incoming travelers . ... ข้อ ๑ ให้ยกเลิกกำรรับลงทะเบียนกำรเดินทำงเข้ำรำชอำณำจักรส ำหรับผู้เดินทำงเข้ำมำ ในรำชอำณำจักรทุกประเภท

  9. Published: T_0021.PDF (soc.go.th) - Wearing a surgical mask or a cloth mask is a voluntary practice. - The Ministry of Public Health (Department of Health) recommends that the general public wear a face mask when living with other people in a crowded place or area There was a large group of people who could not be separated from each other. or poorly ventilated to reduce the risk of transmission or infection.
  10. If they require TM87 iso TM86 that says a lot, I think. 1.1 Form TM.86 for the foreigner, who has Tourist or Transit Visa and want to applies for a change of type of visa (from Tourist Visa or Transit Visa to Non-Immigrant Visa); or 1.2 Form TM.87 for the foreigner, who enters the kingdom of Thailand without visa, but is allowed to stay in the kingdom with a permit of stay for a period of 30 days, 90 days and want to applies for non-immigrant visa.
  11. Same here. I started travelling regularly (2 to 3 times a month), I grabbed about 4 pc at immigration arrival. When received one at the plane went into the bag for next time arrival. Filled in most required data at home before I left Thailand. Date and flight number kept empty until I actually flew to Thailand. Almost never filled an TM6 card in on the plane. Who knows, the end of TM6 is near.
  12. I looked it up and found it was a CNN story: "South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham remained a loyal ally to former President Donald Trump throughout both of Trump’s impeachments, but now Graham says he wants to impeach President Joe Biden for his approach to the drawdown of US forces in Afghanistan." Do not care who wins in the US, left or right. Anyway, just asked a question about US president succession in case of. Crazy ... maybe. 5555
  13. I do not know impeached for what. I just read somewhere they want to impeach, for whatever reason, asap after the Nov election, if they got a majority. I do not care who is US president.
  14. I really do not care who is US president. But thanks for the insight. Guess we will wait and see what happens next.
  15. Guess you missed the question. If Biden and Harris are impeached AND Trump is elected as speaker, could Trump be President again in 2023 before a general election? It might never happen, but could this happen based on the presidential line of succession? So maybe not Trump, but anyone who is elected speaker could be US president next year.
  16. I really do not care who is US president, but... If the Republicans win big in November and: a. impeach President Biden, b. impeach VP Harris, AND c. elect Trump as the speaker of the House of Representatives, could Trump be President again in 2023 before a general election?
  17. KLM is flying some planes empty (no pax) to Schiphol Amsterdam. This is a great solution to the overcrowding problems they have at the airport. ????
  18. And how was the nightlife in New York, Paris, Milan, Singapore, Bangkok during the covid times?
  19. "If others were photographed or their pictures were posted unintentionally without any damage caused, no one would be considered as doing wrong" What about those Youtube channels filming in public places? Maybe there are some people who do not want to be filmed, when just enjoying some (nightlife) entertainment.
  20. "Seems you need a master’s degree to handle Thai immigration rules" Think what is meant here is a master's degree on the level used in Thailand. Not a master's degree as used in other countries. Most kids here go to university, but the level cannot be compared to a real university, like in EU or US. There are always some unusual cases, but most immigration rules are not that difficult to follow.
  21. The cancellation of Thailand Pass registration is expected to take place on June 1, with tourists using their TM6 immigration form for vaccine declaration, says the Tourism and Sports Ministry.
