Government offices in Thailand do not observe Mayday AFAIK. But perhaps time has passed me by?

That is why I placed 'observed' on it. It is observed by the public sector at the discretion of the company or business. From a post I made last year.

It is not a government holiday as immigration is open and government schools are open (my school has never closed for labor day in the many years working there). It is a banking holiday and private companies/businesses may let their employees off as it is labor day.

Although the annual, May 1st, National Labour Day non-working public holiday of Thailand is not observed by the Government sector of Thailand

That should make the following Monday a lot of fun at immigrations offices.

Would this apply to Swampy re-entry permit office (wherever it may be)?

It is open everyday from 5 am to midnight see this topic. New location of re-entry office at Suvarnabhumi

I'm buying a motorbike May 2 and just this afternoon asked if they'd be open. The guy I talked to said yes, and he understood it was a holiday, but not for them. I imagine just the government offices, maybe some schools will be closed.

Believe you will find it is the government offices and schools that will be open Monday - it is not a holiday for government offices.

Official answer for me:

"The Consulate is closed on 2-3 May 2016 as stated in our website at http://www.thaiembassy.org/hochiminh/contents/files/organize-20151130-174829-334315.pdf . If your application is submitted on 29 April 2016, the collection date will be on 4 May 2016.

Best regards,

From that pdf you can find all the closed dates 2016 (thai+viet)

Those are holidays in Vietnam not Thai ones. Look at the file you posted and you will see a VN on the right side of the page,

As mentioned by Ubon, foreign Thai embassies will honor local holidays. Here is from Bangkok US Embassy which shows it is open. Plus a form posted last year.

I posted a calendar from last year in that post as an example showing immigration not closing on Labor day. I removed it now due to the confusion and it is 5th and 6th this year for Coronation day & extra day.
