Pink I.D Card & Yellow Book
You can only be registered in one Yellow book, so make a choice. The Civilian Registration Act 2008 states; Section 38: The district or local registrar shall issue a household registration for persons without Thai nationality having been permitted to stay temporarily and those having been giving leniency for temporary residence in the Thai Kingdom as a special case in accordance with law on immigration and the declaration of the Cabinet and their children born within the Thai Kingdom. In a case of permission of temporary residence overdue, the registrar shall immediately dispose of such persons. First check the requirements at your Amphoe. These days most will request an Embassy certified copy of your passport, translated to Thai, then legalised by the Consular section of the MFA. Some may also request an Embassy certified copy of your Birth certificate, translated to Thai, then legalised by the Consular section of the MFA. There is no requirement to be married or own property, but you do require the permission of the homeowner to register at their address. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs have now opened several Consular offices throughout the Country for legalising documents, by appointment only. 1. 123 Chaeng Watthana Road, Lak Si District, Bangkok 10210 2. MBK CENTER Shopping Mall, 5th floor, Zone A, Phaya Thai Road, Wang Mai Subdistrict, Pathum Wan District, Bangkok 3.

Coming to Thailand
Losing bank interest was not my only focus (was just saying) when not wanting to go the non O journey. As I have said I want to do approx 30 day swings which suits ME considering issues of holidays, cost, health and home in oz Jetstar fares ok with me as is cost of two evisa METV's per year which should be hassle free entry compared to 6 VE's @30 day ea or 3 VE's @ 60 days ea. For me peace of mind outweighs the extra cost but of course each to their own. Thx for the VE guidelines. -

Trump’s top general calls ex-president ‘fascist to the core’
Well, as your point was merely to blow smoke I'd say I aced it, and not by cheating like a little punk the same way Donald does. America's former top soldier, serving as chairman of the JCS for four years, gives a damning assessment of Trump (like every other top official that served in his administration) and the MAGA crowd goes full on pearl clutching. Pathetic. -

Is this legal? No farangs welcome...
Why would EU laws apply in Thailand? Anyway, our condo just announced new rules that were agreed on a couple of months ago. You can see some additional requirements for foreigners, which force (rightfully) the owner of the unit to deal with immigration. Had I been renting out, I'd certainly want to avoid that hassle and would not consider foreigner as a tenant. On the "plus" side - the part of reporting unregistered tenants to police for trespassing has now been removed, and replaced with blanket "Prohibition of Short-term Rentals" part. Our condo enforces the rules far more stringently than our neighbours. That's how they enforce "No pet" policy... Meow... -

Swastika Flags Flown During Donald Trump Boat Parade in Florida
I wish I could. I wish I could wake up one day and the whole Trump thing was just a bad dream. A dream in which a criminally mad scientist put together the most ill suited person for a leadership position imaginable. A Frankenstein of horrible traits. Dimwitted, vain, useless. And millions of people actually went for it! But alas, reality beats horrid fiction in this case. -

Luggage Fit for Travelling Around Thailand ?
For years, I have used a rucksack. About 80l capacity. This means I can walk up and down steps & have no problems with the rough pavements found in Thailand & nearby countries. The downside is it can be a bit sweaty at times. I think I'd like something which has the option of using a rucksack or wheels. The first thing I note is small wheels. Wouldn't larger wheels be preferable on Thai pavements ? Then most of the products I see are lower capacity. Note, I will typically take public transport from Suvarnabhumi to my hotel. Or from regional bus & train stations. So there is some walking with the luggage. I'm fine with that, but the luggage needs to be up to it. . -

Is this a scam at Phuket arrivals?
A few years ago, an acquaintance had a nice arrangement with an immigration officer who instead of doing visa runs stamped his passport for him. Turned out he was not allowed to use that stamp - so on a visit to immigration he was arrested and locked up for abo9uot 4 days told to stay in the country until it came to court - which took months -he was than fined and allowed to go home. If the stamps - even though correct are issued unofficially then they could be deemed invalid. THe stamp can be "real" but if the officer issuing it is not entitled to than all those stamps could be invalid. -
