Damacles Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 You'll probably get better feedback than I can give as people wake up, but that sounds very strange and unlikely to me. I have a Thai friend due to fly out in a couple of days and the only problem she has is that her passport is stuck in the closed Spanish embassy. July is a long way away yet if thats the problem for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenjeip Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 My wife just tried to get a ticket into, and two out of Thailand. They told her that they currently were not selling any, due to the political situation, but they hoped to be able to next week. Also had been told that the American embassy was closed for the week, but don't know about any other ones. We're trying to bring her Mom to stay with us in the US for a few months, but we'll have to wait and see what happens first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tartempion Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 No, have not heard something like that. Some (many?) Thais are gullible, some farangs also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario2008 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Thais leave the country every day, airlines leave and depart normally, although some have cut back on their flights as demand is low right now. The problem might be that right now it is difficult to get a visa, as many embassies are closed, inclusing the US-embassy. With no visa for a country that requires it, an airline will not let them board. If they do, the airline will be fined and be responsible for sending the back to Thailand.

If she has a valid visa for your country, and all paperwork is complete there is not a problem as rumored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bina Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 good question actually: guys here are wondering if the workers that have already got their visas and dates of departure are being allowed to leave; remember, they arent tourists to here, but are leaving as workers and therefore are handled in suvanaphum by a different group of officers and the labour department people, so is there a possiblily that they cannot fly out yet? rumour is rampant here as well among the manpower companies and the thai workers as well... real time info appreciated, as guy someone is supposed to be comining to join the guys working here and they are waiting as he is taking place of someone who left...also someone is supposed to be returning and he needs stamp from labour department from his changwat buriram, are they working ? he needs the stamp for when he leaves thailand back to here this coming week, it can only be received from his own changwat, not bangkok (as we learned our lesson last time). bina israel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

State of emergency covers that all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Most national government offices have been closed this week (as they are located in Bangkok). They should all re-open on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
