Early warning. There are no public holidays in March so immigration offices will be open as usual Monday till Friday. However come April there are several holidays. Monday April 8th is a substitute date for Chakri day and offices will be closed.

Songkran holidays will be from Friday April 12th until Tuesday April 16th. Offices will be closed during those dates.

Depending on the office you use they will generally be manic prior and after these closure dates. If you can avoid using them during these times then it’s well advised to do so.

Land borders or airports are not affected by public holidays.

Plan accordingly.

When I was a kid we had this bug zapper. It was amazing. Zap! Zap! ZAP!! All evening and a mound of dead bugs in the AM.

Tried to buy something similar here and... Well I can see dead bugs inside, but no satisfying light show.

Anyone know what has changed about the tech or products? If I spend more money will I get more action?
