Hi i hope some one can help me with the tdac im landing on the 1st of may and im filling in the arrival on the tdac page and the only thing it will not let me enter is my arrival day am i try to fill it in to early?

Is this a good time to go to Bangkok? I’m looking to spend a couple months in Asia.. was thinking of Vietnam 🇻🇳 instead since the earthquake. Thoughts?

Question: I need to file a TM30 for my new apartment in Pattaya, which I rented for a month, so that I can later do my 90-day report. My previous accommodation here did not file a TM30 for me.

Now, the agent for my new apartment says that since there is no TM30 for my previous Pattaya apartment, the apartment owner needs 1,600 baht to file it now for my current residence. Supposedly, this may be to prevent immigration from asking questions about the missing TM30 from before but I'm not sure.

Is this a scam or standard practice? Does immigration really check this and require a full TM30 history for the entire stay to file a tm30 in Pattaya? What do you think I should do in this situation?

Re-entered Thailand BKK today. Absolutely no problems. All I was asked was where I’m going and I shrugged: “probably Phra Nakhon”, and that was it. 6 months stamp which extends beyond when I know I’ll be travelling abroad again.

I need help with my Budget...am I over budgeting?

*Monthly**

1. Rent $700 (all in for utilities, water, electric

2. Transportation $400 ($100 weekly)

3. Food $900 ($10 3x a day = $30)

4. Phone & WiFi $100

That's $2100 mandatory bills....

I still haven't

1. Clubbed/Partied

2. Tourist/Travel/Island Hop/Elephants

3. Shopped for new cloths for climate etc

4. Girlfriend Experience

What else am I forgetting????

My plan was to take 20k for a 6 month vacation 25k total with 5k for flight and and visa fees & insurance;

Pay bills in America for 6 months = $6000

14k ÷ 6 months = 2333 remaining Budget

70k savings getting 4% in high intrest saving account pays me an additional $258 monthly bringing my total BUDGET to $2591 ($2600) monthly.

With $2100 in MANDATORY bills that leaves me $500 a month to party/massages/island hop/ elephants and if push comes to shove "girlfriend experience".

Am I OVER or UNDER BUDGETING....AND WILL $500 a month be enough after MANDATORY BILLS are paid to have the kind of adventure that most are looking for?

P.S. I'm 44 so even tho I look foward to some night life nights....I see myself being more of a "visit the islands" lay up and get massages 6x a week and eat good food and visit cool locations over the club scene. But I do party....

I have to drop off some visa docs for Japan, is the VFS Global office still open in Ubon post office ?

I’m gonna do border run from bangkok to Vientiane.

I will not visit around. Just border bounce.

Could you please recommend the hostel or hotel near the border?

I think it would be far from border if i stay in vientiane.

Update

I’m back in Thailand.

I took a train from bkk to Vientiane and vice versa.

Stayed 1 night. Came back next day.

No questions asked !!

No problem at all !!!

Any experience with the Hungarian embassy ?

Hello, I want to spend my retirement in Thailand. I will travel to Thailand on a family visa for good and I want to get insurance there but unfortunately I have pre-existing conditions. I have already read a lot about this topic regarding pre-existing conditions but unfortunately I haven't found anything suitable. What kind of health insurance can you recommend that you have had good experiences with and is affordable? Please no answers that are not related to this topic.
