Thailand offers free domestic flights for 200,000 foreign arrivals

[members only]

Hi all not a visa related but I'll try anyway. I am leaving UK to move to Thailand soon and trying to get insurance here before coming. I have the problem that they want a return flight to give me the insurance also have an under investigation health problem. What does everyone do please ? Thanks

Edit it looks like I found an insurance company that doesn’t require return date. Big cat insurance

Hi and something slightly different. Does anyone know an agent in Nakon Ratchasima who can process an application for a foreigner to get a Yellow house book in Chackorat. Thanks.

Is an exit flight needed when entering with DTV? thanks

Nice experience wanted to share:

This morning we had a appointment to pick up my drivers license translation(8:40) and at 09:30 a appointment at the German embassy for legalization of that copy. So we left at 6:45 arrived at the translator at 10:00 and then at 10:30 at the German embassy. We thought let’s try if they still would help us as Germans are well known for being on the clock and too our big surprise they helped us not even complaining about us being late. (Cost translation & legalization THB 1943)

So we got everything ready for my Thai drivers license.

Hello, I decided to get a driver's license so that they can recognize my European license, but they are making me translate the legend into English. Has anyone had a similar problem and is there an office in Bangkok that I can go to without a translation? I was at Mo Chit's office.

Thoughts on travelling to Buriram next week?

My US passport book is filled, I only have 2 pages left, though it doesn’t expire for another 5 years. I made an appointment at the embassy in bkk to get it renewed with a 52 page. Which form do I print and take to the embassy, DS 82 or DS 11 .. im getting conflicting info online.

Thanks in advance .

Is it true that marijuana is now illegal to sell in Thailand and you need a prescription to have, plus it's being criminalised?

Hi everyone.

I went to the DLT in Bang Chak a few days ago to convert my home license to a Thai driving license. I got a queue and was sent back home. Before leaving I asked the officer if I have to do the test anytime at home and return with the printed result on 1 July at 08:00 and he just nodded. 🧐

When I try to do my convert test on the DLT website it just says “Coming soon”.

So my question is: do I need to do the test on 1 July at 08:00 online at home then go back to the DLT office on a later date whenever I want? Or do I have to go there in person on the given date and do the test there?

Thank you.
