Hello ladies,

My name is Noni and I’m from London. I am intending to relocate to Thailand in January and looking to connect with women of a similar age to me i.e in their early 50’s.I am looking for suggestions and recommendations for short term rental of a 2 bedroom villa that is convenient to local amenities such as supermarkets, hospitals and beaches) Unfortunately, I am in a situation whereby my husband is currently unable to join me. I would be grateful for any hints and tips concerning visa , banking and health insurance. Thanks in advance…

Honesty and sincerity greatly appreciated and returned,

Hi Beautiful people,

Looking for visa information as it’s my first time going Asia specifically Thailand from

Australia.

Also i need to know how can i stay a year or so as my main goal is to do bodybuilding classes and preparing only. Also like best gym recommendations. I haven’t book anything yet.

And by the way am Australian Citizen so not sure how can i get just 1 year visa.

Thanks for the help in advance .

Looking for anybody that would know of any options for the following.

I need to get from Phuket to Siem Reap. What would be the best and most affordable way to get there.

Looking to travel today.

I'm heading to the Thai Embassy in Vientiane on the 1st of Oct. Does anyone have knowledge about the flood conditions around the embassy, or the Laos border?

How much do “border runs” typically cost? I wanted to get the DTV visa but it doesn’t look like i’m going to have the 450,000 Baht before my flight on Oct 10

i’m from US. I’ll be staying in Koh Samui, on whatever other Visa i can get. ( i guess tourist visa) trying to figure up how much it’ll cost to refresh it

I budget for Bt 100,000 P/M each time I go to Hua Hin, I usually come back having spent only Bt65,000 per month. I actually save money holidaying in Thailand, airfare is $440 for 3 months W.A. to Thailand then back again to Australia, I spend $200 per week on food alone in Aus, nothing like that in Thailand. For a 3-star hotel room in Aus $250/300 per night (in Thailand the same room is $500 per month). For some meals I cook myself and for some I buy, I only accept accommodation I can cook in. At a restaurant in Australia for a nice meal $50 plus and a cheap bottle of wine for 2 people $130 per meal for 2 (and that's cheap in Aus) Yes I save money going now to Thailand for 3 months at a time. The new 60-day tourist visa is good for me, it takes about one hour to get an extension at immigration, so 3 months is no problem. I will not have to apply for the previous 60+ day visa plus 30 day extension which can be complicated. Thailand has now improved. Still TIT.

Visa information required please.

My husband and I are UK citizens and travel to Thailand frequently as our son and granddaughter live there. Our son stays on a work visa and our granddaughter holds both a Thai and British passport.

When the ability to enter for 60 days came into effect with the option to extend to 90 days, my husband and I booked flights.

October - November for 49 days, we then booked flights December - March 89 days. We have now found out we can only stay a maximum of 90 days on a tourist visa over 6 month period.

We are both retired aged over 60 years old, is there another visa we can apply for before we consider changing our flights.

Thank you.

Hi all,

My partner and I are travelling to Thailand in April next year. I have X5 chronic illnesses and require a lot of pain relief medications. Is there somewhere I can find out if these medications can be taken into the country? Thank you.

Found this on Vientiane consulate website.
