lopburi3 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Government offices in Thailand do not observe Mayday AFAIK. But perhaps time has passed me by? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quandow Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 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.

lopburi3 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Believe you will find it is the government offices and schools that will be open Monday - it is not a holiday for government offices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raimo TTT Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 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, Royal Thai Consulate-General in Ho Chi Minh City" From that pdf you can find all the closed dates 2016 (thai+viet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
