Bars that serve Decent Cocktails
My friend likes cocktails and I don't....555 So I am looking for a normal bar that serves decent cocktails rather than a specialised cocktail bar. Any recommendations please? If the bar has a pool table all the better, but not a necessity. Thanks in advance.

Number of Days / Hours Taught at Schools in Thailand
I understand that according to the Thai MoE, the minimum number of teaching hours in Thai schools (IB and International may have different regulations I am not sure) is 1,000 hours for primary and 1,200 hours for secondary schools. This covers the core subjects, student development activities, and electives. However, provided this criteria is met it seems that the number of actual days taught can vary greatly from school to school. I have heard of some schools having just 177 days of teaching whilst most Thai government schools have 200. I was wondering if others could share the number of days being taught at their schools along with the number of hours per day to get some sort of overview. If I am wrong about anything, please feel free to correct / inform me. Thanks in advance.

SSO Coverage applicable for MD/Directors of owned Company?
Someone told me you can't get SSO coverage if you are a director. I have no idea if that is actually the case but they seemed pretty knowledgeable. Maybe ask at your local social security office and then report back here would be my suggestion.

Group Medical Insurance Coverage
Group medical cover for students. All of them offer accident insurance for students. I approached a few insurance companies such as AXA and a broker.

Group Medical Insurance Coverage
Some insurers said they didn't offer it so yes I have approached others but also looking on TV here to see if anyone else has any knowledge as an insurance expert or as a client.

Group Medical Insurance Coverage
Personal accident insurance for students and third-party liability I can get everywhere. I am looking for health insurance for students at a school as well as staff. Maybe it's not possible currently but some underwriter could create a bespoke one for us.

Group Medical Insurance Coverage
I am looking for group cover for a school for employees and students. Is this something medical companies offer? I know they offer it for staff but not sure if you can also get group cover for students (besides accident insurance). Thanks in advance.

Working Visa - Earliest Issue Date
Ok sorry for misunderstanding. How many days in advance did you come to Thailand before the start of your working contract (when you arrived on your non-immigrant B working visa) can you recall?
-
Working Visa - Earliest Issue Date
Agreed but in my experience they are very slow at responding or sometimes don't respond depending on the question.
-
Working Visa - Earliest Issue Date
I would but I would have to leave the country to do that. I will ask CM immigration tomorrow to see if they know.
-
Working Visa - Earliest Issue Date
This is for the first non-B working visa not a renewal.
-
Working Visa - Earliest Issue Date
Sorry I should have been more specific, I see that now. This is for the first non-B working visa that is issued to an individual by them obtaining it outside Thailand. They will then proceed to Thailand an apply for their first work permit. Apologies for not being more specific. I cannot change the original post or heading now sadly.

Working Visa - Earliest Issue Date
Does anyone know how far in advance a visa can be issued prior to the working date start as stated in the employment contract. I read "around 60 days" but can't see this anywhere officially.

Volunteering and Working - Visa and Work Permit Scenario
Currently have a volunteer visa - was my post not clear on that? The shared threads do not cover this specific circumstance as they are both paid positions not a mix of volunteer and paid. I think it's going to be a question for the immigration volunteers on Monday.... I also want to know if he can change from a volunteer visa to a working visa within Thailand, I am guessing not.

Volunteering and Working - Visa and Work Permit Scenario
I am going to immigration on Monday so I will ask one of the English speaking volunteers.
-
Volunteering and Working - Visa and Work Permit Scenario
I think so, logically to me that makes sense but will they still allow him to vounteer if he's on a working visa. This is THAILAND!!! The land of the illogical and confusion!

Volunteering and Working - Visa and Work Permit Scenario
Thanks for sharing but my friend's circumstances aren't the same which is why I started a new thread. It's not an additional paid job. The existing one is voluntary supported by a volunteer's visa and work permit. He also, wants to take up a paid part-time role. I know two work permits arr required and that's not an issue, but I am unsure of the visa situation that is needed. I will go to immigration this week if nobody on here knows. Thanks for your reply.

Volunteering and Working - Visa and Work Permit Scenario
He currently has a voluntary visa and work permit for that volunteer visa.

Volunteering and Working - Visa and Work Permit Scenario
I am posting for a friend.... 555 where have we heard that one before! He is currently on a voluntary visa and is teaching voluntarily for a foundation - unpaid. He also has a work permit for this organisation. Now, he has been offered some part-time work for a school which will be paid. He will obviously, need to secure a separate work permit since they are specific to the workplace. However, what about his visa? If, as I suspect he must change it to a working visa, will he still be authorised to continue working for the foundation as an unpaid volunteer? Surely, he won't need two visas! Thanks in advance.

Motorbike Mechanic
Any recommendations on a decent motorbike mechanic who can deal with things like cleaning transmissions and resolving issues. I was not impressed with the Yamaha main dealer and prefer a mechanic who knows his stuff and works for themselves as I find them to be more attentive. Should be able to hand manual and automatic scooters. Does anyone have any good experiences? If so, perhaps you could share the location and contact details. Thanks in advance.

Dentist for Children
Most dentists in Thailand don't treat children. In the past we have been to Ram, Lanna, and McCormick hospitals but the waiting times can be long as they don't seem to have specific appointment times. We once waited at The Ram nearly 3 hours after being given an appointment time at the weekend. Needless to say that was out last visit. Also been to DentalWorld. The last one we went to was this one. We only had a check-up which was fine. Will go back there next time as I too haven't been given any recommendations. เลขที่ 174 Lampang - Chiang Mai Superhighway, Tambon Chang Phueak, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50300 https://maps.app.goo.gl/2R6mAsJdcANQNyhm8
