Japhrodisiac Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Just a reminder to all expats with a business on Samui, that this month BKK Air are taking applications for the Samui Resident Card. If you miss the end of the month deadline you will need to wait another 6 months to apply. Cheers - J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 What are the qualifications/requirements and do Phangan and Tao people qualify as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japhrodisiac Posted March 7, 2007 Author Share Posted March 7, 2007 I think the basic requirements are : Company registration Passport (copies) Work Permit (copies) One Photo (passport style) Even though they call this a "resident" card, they seem to focus more on the business owners, otherwise a passport copy and rental agreement or some such would suffice. No idea if they will do for Tao/Phangan...anyone try yet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gusG Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Is there a charge for this or is it a free service ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japhrodisiac Posted March 8, 2007 Author Share Posted March 8, 2007 300 baht to apply, the discount on the application says 20%, but this does not apply to promotion fares. I think that with regular flights, the flyerbonus program as well as the resident card there should be some decent savings to be had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
