Hi! My mom and son are traveling here on May 12. Do you know if the 300 baht tourist tax is in place now? Do you know how they accept payment if it is in place? I tried to google, but was not getting a straight answer.

Can anyone recommend an agent that will do the leg work to go to Chang Wattana and apply for the Certificate of Residence at a reasonable price? Can provide all the docs required.

Hi everyone. I am planning on moving to Thailand shortly, marrying my girlfriend then living here on a marriage visa. Two questions.

Which visa should I enter Thailand on?

Would I have any problem entering on a one way plane ticket?

Thanks

How do you report a crime when outside of Thailand?

Someone has (apparently) checked into a hotel using a copy of my passport and used my Accor points to pay for the stay.

Yesterday the staff told me it was an Indian guy with a different name who checked in, but they changed their story today and said it was my details (they cant give more info due to PDPA). I think they are lying about the passport, but need to report this to Patong police.

How do I go about this?

Thanks

Just saw that Foodpanda lost thr battle for delivery. Anyone have inside insight into this? I know Grab has an advantage because they use the tech from Uber... Foodpanda hurt themselves marketing-wise by not just being Panda.... But I'm still surprised to see them now out.

I have been doing the 800000 in the bank since I got here but am send over well over well over 800000 a year to live but not always 650000 in a month obviously watching the exchange rates and send more over when hi and topping up when need. My bank statement will show this. Can this be used as the 650000 per month as I herd they add all amounts together and divide by 12. But also herd they take monthly amount and go on the lowest amount sent. Can anyone give my best options to get my monthy income cover my visa requirements rather than the 8000000

Quick update on my DTV journey:

I applied for the DTV visa and flew to Thailand while the application was processing. I stayed for about a month on a 60-day tourist visa. Around day 20, I got the approval notice.

So I did a quick visa run—flew to Kuala Lumpur for a day, then straight back to Bangkok. At immigration, no questions asked. The officer already knew what it was about. I just mentioned I had to fly out to activate my DTV, and she stamped me in for 6 months with a smile and a “have a good stay.”

Smooth and easy.

Passport is Germany.

Hi brains trust,

I was given a 180 day passport stamp on on arrival to BKK on the DTV visa. 2 questions;

- Do I still need to do a 90 day report?

I might be moving to a different residence address to what was in the initial visa application.

- Will this cause issues if I need to do a 90 day report?
