WHAT???.....seriously?

 

Just booked flights and haven't read anything about having a little yellow book?????

 

Did I just miss it?

I got it before I traveled to Australia but it was not needed,

Got my yellow book in Pattaya prior to traveling to Australia. Didn't need it.

This seems to work. Apologies in advance if it doesn't.

Malaysia still require 7 or 10 days quarantine for any international arrival even for the citizen.

Can a tourist visit Kuala Lumpur? Replies appreciated.

I'm in Thailand now but weighing up my options for when I make a trip to Australia sometime in the not too distant future. I suppose the longer I put it off the more relaxed regulations will become (provided there's not another wave of some new super strain) Can I get the vaccine PP online, or in provinces, or is it in BKK?

They can be obtained in Pattaya by appointment. My appointment is tomorrow.

I have travelled on a Non Imm O visa for years but only staying in Thailand for the allowed 90 days.

Now I want to, stay for longer periods, hence the idea of a long term visa. The reason I am thinking about the O-A is that I've read that getting the O Visa is more complex, officials visiting the house, photos have to be taken, maps drawn to show the way to get to the house etc. etc. etc. What are your thoughts?

It is less complex, in my experience. No visiting or photos. Map is simple drawing of home location that takes two minutes. I have never used an agent, but if it seems too complex, please use one.

An easy way is to take your blue book to a shop where they do annual car inspections. For a fee of one hundred baht they do everything and you come back in one or two days to collect your sticker.

Check that your phone number recorded on the paper certificate is accurate. Otherwise you will not be able to register on the app.

The web site is clear that it’s purpose is to survey to determine the amount of vaccine required. It is not an appointment system.

 

I guess I am supposed to wait for a phone call to get an appointment.

Although it is called a survey, I did get an appointment by registering on it. Please persist. I have received two Pfizers from them in spite of not being a patient there. Good luck again.

It was her first day?

I tried the link, the results:

 

they ask for hospital ID number. I don’t have one.

 

there is no provision for email, so the only contact allowed is a telephone number.

I'm sorry if this doesn't work for you but my friend called the main number and made the appointment over the phone. Good luck.

I'm curious how you even managed to register being their website only accepted people over 60 or with the 7 underlying conditions. 

They now accept over 40 at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya. Register by 27/8.

I'm 78 & registered through Intervac; Chamber of Commerce weeks ago BUT live in Pattaya.  It is newsworthy when any vaccine escapes the ringfence surrounding Bangkok and trickles into the ghost town formerly known as Pattaya.

Please try intervac now and click Bangkok Hospital Pattaya.

What should i use for a 1989 Toyota Corolla? Thanks.

60yr or older? Or conditions?

This list is open:

Just can't tell whether passport nr. is enough or tax id/Thai id/pinkcard also necessary.

Fill in passport number and type 0 for Thai id.

Do you have permanent residency? That is the only way you can be registered in the blue house book unless you are Thai.

You name may appear on the last page of it as the owner.

Hi Ubonjoe

I am very grateful for your accurate information that has been very useful to me.

i have a blue book although I am not Thai nor a permanent resident. Could I be the only one?

Cheers and keep up the good work.

I am an end of life doula certified by the university of Vermont and will be willing to discuss your concerns about death and dying as a public sevice.

Same problem. Changed battery and it was fine.

Hi Roy

There was nothing wrong with the old one and you did not need to change it. The new one does not look as good but I could put up with it if it worked as well as the old one. What's wrong? Click on "English", nothing happens. Click on the movie name, nothing happens.

Thailand is in the process of instituting new qualifications for Western teachers in Thailand. If you want to teach in Thailand, according to the Thai Ministry of Education, you will have to either have these qualifications or get them. The downside is, they're expensive and basically useless outside Thailand. The upside? Well nobody seems to have found one yet.

Here are the new regulations, as outlined in a memo to most schools in Thailand at the beginning of February, 2008:

1. All teachers in Thailand must have a BA degree and a teaching license. If they do not have a BA and a teaching license (very few teachers do) then they will not be allowed to teach in Thailand.

2. For those teachers with a BA but no teaching certification from their home country they will have to take the following:

a) a 20 hour Thai Culture Course covering Thai society, Thai language and culture, Thai courtesy, Thai arts and music (why this is necessary to teach English in Thailand, nobody seems to know?) The cost for this course is 8,000 baht (approximately US $250).

a one year Teacher Training certification program at the cost of 80,000 baht (approximately US $2,500). (As this certification will only be valid in Thailand, you're not likely to get many teachers willing to hand over the money for it).

c) the teacher will have to pass four exams that are derived from current Graduate Diploma in Education courses.

3. Once all these requirements have been met they will have to submit the following:

a) a completed application for a Teacher's License

copy of passport

c) copy of evidence showing teaching qualifications

d) copy of foreign license to teach

e) copy of certificate of teaching operations (nobody seems to know what this means?)

f) copy of the certificate of knowledge testing and evaluation

g) two one-inch full face photographs.

I sent a mail to a school who have TEFL course, and this is their answer.

To teach in a language or government school you need a degree to get a

teachers license and subsequent work permit. However this regulation is

still open to interpretation and varies depending on the province. In

other words there are still lots of people teaching without a degree.

Even though I have a higher degree in Education and a teaching licence from Australia, I still had to attend the 20-hour Thai cultural training program and fulfil other requirements as outlined in Applicant Type 1 - Method 1. It appears that no one is exempt from the 20-hour course.
