  1. There are two M2 Cards.. NVME like Grandpapillon says here.. but also NGFF . There are converter adapters for both of them for apple macs. 2240 is the lenght.. and it would work good , but .. the 2240 ones are normally only sata disk.. Anyway.. All can be used, but for speed a real nvme disk m2 is recommended.
  2. you have two options.. buy a disk from aliexpress.. free freight.. they cost around 50 usd to thailand .. or buy a similar priced m2280 ngff or nvme.. if its a mac.. remember to buy the adapter for 100 baht also.. from proprietary Apple ssd connector to standard ngff or nvme M2 disk.. You can also use 2240 which are normally ngff disks and half the size but a litte bit wider.. This is an example of something you could use.. normal sata ssd. 2.5 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003115386317.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.1dda78d0KE4Swe&algo_pvid=f3d51d3c-4088-4a25-b5fc-0f29e6cb1c16&algo_exp_id=f3d51d3c-4088-4a25-b5fc-0f29e6cb1c16-2&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"12000024183198526"}&pdp_pi=-1%3B2036.69%3B-1%3B-1%40salePrice%3BTHB%3Bsearch-mainSearch
  3. This is the law like mentioned.. , but its not what is applied in all circumstances. Especially if you change airline along the way. Last flight into the county is the key. From checkin time of that the pcr test has to be valid from the time written on the paper which will be from when you took the test. Not when you recieved it. But yet.. claiming the law does not always work. However strange it is.
  4. The answer is like this.. The law says.. 72 hours from first port of embarkation.. However.. It is not always implied like this.. Health personel in europe told me. Not hearsay.. It is the last flight checkin time that you actually check in.. or in other words.. The last flight until you land in Thailand. This is if you have a multi leg which most have. And yes. To complicate it further.. It is from the test time.. Not when the result is recieved. Hope it clears stuff up.. Sidenote... It is normally applied to first port of embarkation time.., but it could backfire and lets say you change airline.. if its a different airline you normally have to show it again.. meaning.. IF you fly Lufthansa from point a to b then it will definetly be first port of embarkation.
  5. I would say Gilbys.. The vodka is tripple distilled.. but do not try their Gin.
  6. Yes.. You would I am told.. Its a risky game.. but might be an option.. That said.. jan 15th is confirmed in the media. But I have not seen an official document about it. It would be useful for a few if so. 4 new provinces are declared sandboxes also. That is eventually good news. Phang nga, Krabi, and samui off my head here.. its one or two more. Koh chang possibly.
  7. IF so.. It would solve a problem for some people.. Not for the majority. But like said earlier here.. It is possible to apply for a sandbox pass as well.
  8. To rephrase.. The test and go is already approved and received.. All is ok, but if a cutoff date is 10 of january. Is that 23.59 pm on the 10th or is is 23.59 on the 9th? If it is like one would probably believe 23.59 on the 10th(last day) does that mean you have to be on the plane from that date or does it mean you have to go through immigration before 23.59pm on the 10th? Its tricky and no hotline to thai pass or emails are answered of course which is normal. Hotels have no clue either. And.. I doubt it will be clear after the meeting tomorrow neither. Best to have two thai passes.. One of each. One test and go and hope its accepted and one sandbox for entry to plane if stopped in chec-in. I think the problem is not thailand. That can be solved. But the airline will not board you if they see something in their computer for travel restrictions.
  9. If a Thai pass is already approved in november last year for travel date on the 10th of January with arrival in Phuket on the 11th. Will it be allowed if the upcoming meeting tomorrow sets the cutoff date at the 10th of january? If not.. is it possible to apply for two thai passes on the same flight with an alternative sandbox option?
  10. Visa has nothing to do with entry pass.. You can enter on thai elite.., 30 day exemption, business, work or regular tourist or nothing.. It is not connected at all. The thai pass is just an entry that you follow the guidelines outlined. How you legally stay in thailand is not their concern.
  11. Its not a problem.. If you want to do it correct its 12% tax on rental income.. Collect all the rental reciepts from airbnb and deliver to an accountant. Its not expensive to file that.. My guess is 6000 baht. However.. Some people just rent out and never report. The idea is to continue until its a problem. It might never be or it might. Its not difficult as people say here.. Its just to do it., but beware of the rental income tax and you will be fine and not dissapointed.
  12. This is easy.. The law changed a week ago or so.. The new law stipulates that people under the test&go scheme needs another pcr test on day 6. You just did not read the news about it. Moreover.. No more test&go are approved.. Its over for that.. but you are grandfathered. so you can count yourself lucky.
  13. Why would you actually buy land that in the future will belong to the owners daughter or son.. That is a lease.
  14. From my little experience I would recommend brand name HKVision with some good Power over ethernet cameras. If no cables are wanted and you want to do it wifi maybe some xiaomi cameras is to prefer. This will keep it in the 10 000 baht region with around 4 cameras, maybe a little more if you demand an SSD drive and how big it needs to be, but normally a rotation old style disk of one terrabyte would suffice. Check Lazada or shoppee for promotions and buy it separately. Just make sure to not buy an analog camera model if this is not what you want.
  15. Car can be found at 1000-1300 a day for only 5 days period. Motorbikes depending on size from 150-6000 a day.. But if you mean a normal click or something.. 200-250 a day. Cheaper on monthly of course.
  16. From what i understand you can grab a taxi that is sha plus accredited yourself, but hotel can of course also arrange it which makes it a little more easy on the paperwork once checked out at the airport after landing. Also.. I think it is mandatory that hotel has to order the PCR test for you as you are not allowed to open the result yourself in case of fraud. Also it will be registered with the health department with a qr code for easy proof of appointment at airport and proof of ordered test.

    Tourist Visa

    Yes.. you can.. to both.
  18. Just something like this.. Not this one maybe.. Do a lazada search on it.. There are many to choose from.. Contact your local computer shop or phone shop or something... They will know. https://shopee.co.th/เร้าเตอร์-TP-LINK-TD-W8970-แอร์การ์ด-7.2M-ใส่ซิมใช้งานได้เลย-i.16045554.6815265568?sp_atk=f24b7055-ba2e-4e3c-a500-df442ea4f5e3 Point is.. You can buy probably any router, but you need a sim data card for thailand. Or at least it would be least expensive.
  19. Ais play works great from the phone or ipad to the different rooms or tvs. Like said.. It supports chromecast which almost all boxes and tvs support now. Quality is top notch. Never had any problems. Free also with your subscribtion.
  20. They alrady aim to do so on the 16th of December. Then again.. Maybe not.. Or most possible, not at all. ????
  21. I guess its the old phuket hotel renovated. It was needed.. Agreed.
  22. pre test ticket covid certificate one night in hotel Insurance for the travel period covering 50 000 usd as far as I can remember is the number.... Prepaid to hotel one pcr test on arrival Visa got nothing to do with the thai pass as it depends what visa you have. Some people doesnt have it or get it on arrival.. If so... Apply.. good to go...
