No alcohol sales from 10 th to 20 th April if you want get out shopping now [members only]/
Answer summary
From April 10th to 20th, 2020, there is a ban on alcohol sales in Thailand due to COVID-19 restrictions. This has sparked discussions among expats about how the ban affects their plans, with some joking about forced detox and expressing surprise at high beer prices compared to other countries. Comments highlight confusion about whether the ban applies to specific regions like Phuket and Phangnga.

They are brutal taxed. OVER 2300 B for 10 packs. A carton.
