Then you choose a different package. Also, if you want the EST as the OP did.

....who's name was Nok and incredibly they were both on the way to see her.....

No.

No. But one of them at least has a hideous owner.

Wonder where they were both headed to? Wouldn't it be a super-coincidence if it was the same town.

But it seems she can if she wants/needs to....

UK licence and passport. That's all.

....and for only GBP 5.50 so I got one as happened to be there a couple of weeks back, never know when it might be handy.

....now found the English version https://safedrivedlt.com/driving-in-thailand/ Passport with non – immigrant visa : original and photo copy **non quota visa alien identity book (red book) : original and photo copy Residence certificate from embassy , immigration police office, government organization , international organization , work permit (with present resident address identified) and original photo copy Five -years Thai driving license : car and/or motorcycle driving license : original and photo copy Pictures 2 photos 2 inches (not more than 6 months) Fee : 505 baht

Take a look here, https://safedrivedlt.com/ทำใบขับขี่/ใบขับขี่สากล/ you'll likely need to translate the pages but seems straightforward enough, and suggests that you can make an appointment for this service.

It is a thing until Sydney joins the e-Visa party later this month. https://aseannow.com/topic/1321230-thai-consulate-in-sydney-au-launches-evisa-from-march-19-2024/

Over 50? Retirement.

And it is definitely a debit card? I thought all Kasikorn debit cards were Visa, but they do have Mastercard Credit cards which would begin with a 5.

See posts above - you say it is activated but is your card already enabled for online payments?

Yes. A Kasikorn debit card will not work online until it is registered with "verified by visa". I had to do that with mine before it would work with my "Grab" account.

The 1st digit, presumably "4" in your case, indicates it is a Visa card. The next 5-7 digits identify the issuing bank. The last 8 identify your account. So they see it's a Visa debit card from Kasikorn and stop you proceeding further. However, why it works for others is a mystery.

Yes.

Odd that it needed a "rescue team" to lift the gate off him, parents just stood by watching?

Not in my experience, THB 75000 in 8 seconds on 3 March, from a UK Wise account. I suspect the destination bank may also influence the time taken, i.e. if other than Bangkok or Kasikorn it may take longer perhaps.

Whether Thai or Lao there seems always a price to pay there. Crossing with my gf (Lao) she is asked for money both ways by Lao immigration, normally gets away with less than asked for as she tells them she pays a lower amount at Savannakhet. And I also make sure my US$ are crispy, guy seemed rather disappointed the last time. They also had a new irritating arrival/departure card thing for me to fill out, never asked for the departure half on the return leg though.

Lazada calls them "elephant tung", if that makes any sense.

......easy for her to say.....

Full set? In the UK will cost from THB100k up so seems a fair price.

20 Filipinos, "hundreds" of Thais and "just over 10" (11?) police. The outcome was inevitable.

This was asked in the Pattaya section, different rules apply.
