My friend went to the Bangkok immigration office near Don Meuang (in Laksi Plaza/IT Square, 2nd floor, blue hall) while I was in Samitivej Chinatown about 2 months ago.

She took my passport, doctor’s letter about me not fit to fly, photo of me with the day’s newspaper, something in the photo with the hospital name and logo (a bag, in my case) and possibly a nurse, paid the B1900, and I got a 60-day extension of my visa-exempt status.

Everyone involved was compassionate and helpful.

I went to an appt with an Endocrinologist in BKK to refill my meds, the Dr recommended testing every 3 months. I asked the hospital if they can write a letter for visa support and this was their reply:

"Greetings from Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital.

Regrettably, we do not have service to provide letter for visa application.

We could only provide you medical certificate and you may contact Embassy for more information and further assistance."

Is this normal? Is the medical certificate enough? Should I try another hospital?

What is a good place to get covid test close to Suvarnabi? Reasonable price and they do it in the time they promise.

Please don't mind my repeating question,

I late for vaccine payment, only booking and didn't make payment.

Any information about next booking or payment or any update news??

PS, first payment dead line was July 13 and I was too late.

Good evening.

Can anyone please point us in the right direction- looking for an orthodontist to continue with the kids treatment, as well as an optometrist, preferably with someone who can speak a bit of English.

Thanks 😁
