Lorry

Many Westerners come as groups, too. And many of these tours bring you to really exciting places ;) But I was also talking about independent travelers.

Sorry, I don't know any agency for this. Whether the "token amount" would work - I don't know. I know one RD office where it didn't work. No tax no TIN.

Very wrong. People go to the destinations pictured in travel brochures and promoted by travel agents (today, both is mostly online, by Google, IG etc). And it must be cheap. BTW many tourist come in groups, they chose a package named "Thailand" or whatever and then they are ferried wherever the tour operator brings them. Or do you think a foreigner sits at home, brooding over a world map and thinking "I really, really want to go to Soi Pattanakarn 20"? They are brought to Pattanakarn 20 by the truckload busload.

Exactly, happened to me once too. Thais sitting behind a desk heard a foreigner utter the word "tax" and automatically figured he is talking about VAT (I wasn't) and he wants a refund (I didn't want one).

IF you really want a TIN - a big if - you can easily get one by applying for a refund of withholding tax (the tax withheld by your Thai bank from the interest of your Thai bank account). You have to go to the bank first, they will issue you a document stating how much withholding tax you paid, then you have to bring this to the RD office. This can routinely be done for the last 3 years.

Thx I will try them all until I find one I like :)

Correction: its not complete grains, they have been ground somewhat, but still very grainy, very hard. Not a powder at all.

I ordered the psyllium in Thailand J's picture. I got grains, not powder. In shoppee and Lazada I cannot find out from the pictures which one is grains, which one is powder. I need powder. Any experiences? (as recommended by Sheryl, tomorrow I will try Villa)

I don't know, but it looks like they are going to Bangkok anyway. Easier for them

Many Thais from the provinces have one account upcountry and another in Bangkok. Often the same bank

I used to have 5 savings accounts with Bangkok Bank for decades. (I recently switched to another bank, for unrelated reasons) Every account served a different purpose (Aom, Bee, Cat, Dear and myself) Never any problem, and never met anybody - bank staff or not - who found this unusual.

Thx. I know this and this was my first advice (especially as they were asking about abortion pills, which are very easy to get in Cambodia).

The pregnant woman is in Indonesia, I don't think the morning after pill is easily available there (just guessing)

Thanks for all the answers. Very helpful indeed

Do PDA or Khlongtan Hospital provide abortion for foreigners without residence in Thailand (Indonesian passport)? Any experience?
