    This is a hit and miss.. Obtaining a driving license can be done on both a visa exemption stamp and on or a normal tourist visa as well. Also to open a bank account can be done also withouth any non o or dtv. There are many ways. work permit or purchase of condominium comes to mind. But yes.. With banks.. it helps to have a long stay visa.. Absolutely.. But its not always required.

    Absolutely.. and stronger chores are forgotten like empathy, moral, comittment, honesty and standards!

    Understand.. I did mean the hardware MAC, but thought that also could be seen , but probably then only in the internal router. Not external connections.

    Ok.I will check it out. Thanks.

    All this is true, but I do not think you can change your MAC address. Its a hardware ethernet or wifi address as i understand, linked to the actual computer in hand. or phone or tablet. or fridge for that sake.

    Error 403 is the problem. Google has added a new javascript that makes it fail. However.. There is a temporary fix for HD content only. Update under the info sign in the app.

    problem is not to do it.. Easy.. Problem is to remember it..hahahahaahahaha....

    Very possible you are correct of course.. I have heard during the years all sorts of things. Some said 3 times.. Then i now read 6 times.. However.. Might be no limit.

    You can enter Thailand via air up to 6 times per calendar year with a visa exemption [ThaiEmbassy.com]. However, it's important to remember that these entries are at the discretion of the immigration officer. To avoid any issues, make sure you have all the necessary documentation and proof of onward travel

    Lazada i guess, but for sure Aliexpress include the tax in the price. Its prepaid. At least Ali does that for other countries and since tax on all values are now implemented i guess they include Thailand to avoid hassle.

    You are correct. The story is murky. If she has a ticket all the way to London that is a "through ticket" she will be in transit all the way. If she has booked the different flights separately herself she would actually need to enter India as stated. But no info on that.

    Abroad or not.. Last time i checked you would get same treatment as locals. Meaning if you steal a truck in USA.. Excpect to get a normal penalty even you are from Mongolia.

    Yes. Now and then you get island fever.. Its like you want to get out of there suddenly.. However.. The opposite is worse.. Living on the mainland.

    Its not uncommon that there are car crashes on patong hill. Stolen or not should not make a difference.. The traffic chaos is created because one can never move the car before the insurance companies(or police) are finished which takes forever sometimes.

    I prefer phuket, but i agree on what you say. Your points are very very valid!

    Its a free service.. But normally they play the "you can get it now or in one week".. Free after a week or 200 baht instantly. Difficult to discuss with and they know that.. Reciept.. no.. big boss that issue reciepts is always on holiday.. Imagination is not so great i guess.

    More on the funny side... I remember we fought with the online registration at least 15 years ago. So it took more than 2-3 years.. Its still half working.. Most of the time it works now, but not always still.

    Been here 27 years and to be fair Im stil not sure im totally local. To many layers of the onion to peel off.
  20. paahlman
    That is a good question. I would believe from next year they would do so as the new law requires foreigners have to tax on all money brought into Thailand. Not only income and regardless of if it is from last years earnings or current year.
  21. paahlman
    Yes.. Its probably so and i guess they sometimes ask and sometimes not.

    I had to show a copy of it from the old passport in Phuket about a year ago. Another friend of mine had to show a digital one since he had the non im done electronically.Im sure they do it differently and if i had done it the next day maybe they would not ask.
  23. paahlman
    No. Of course not.. But i have two 10 year old.And it was just a number.. I just know that people could have extended their permit to stay that long and it would be the original from embassy you would have to show every year.. However.. I also thought it was transferred to the new passport and these days its more normal that people have applied the first non immigrant visa 90 days that you need online so this makes a digital copy of that sufficient.

    A friend of mine recently went to phuket immigration for 30 days extension. He was not asked about any TM30. I know that might be strange, but that is what happened. Do not know if that is for extension of stay only because you certainly need it for other things. I am aware this might not be normal. Just wondered of they changed a little.
  25. paahlman
    It is. You are correct. Still they wanted to see original in old passport last time. I had a copy of the original which was sufficient. Well. They have different requirement at different times of the day it seems.
