Hello!

Quick question around APEC business card at BKK. Is the fast track lane open post-COVID? Also do they still allow APEC card holder bringing one colleague for clearance?

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS;

60 day covid extension program

The current covid extension program that was scheduled to run out on the 24th of May has been extended until the 25th of July.

This means unless you have a stamp expiring there's no need to run to the immigration office before the 24th to apply for a new extension.

LAND BORDERS WITH LAO OPEN

The land borders with Lao opened on Monday for entry from Thailand (they've been open to get out of Lao into thailand for a while now)

The two thai consulates in Lao (Vientiane & Savannakhet) are open and running (they actually always were, what closed was the border not the consulate :P )

The consulate is in Vientiane and it requires you book an online appointment to get in the gate to apply for a visa

this is their website,

This is the link to make an appointment

IF you make an appointment and then miss it you're blocked from the system for a month (I think it's a month but it could be just 10 days :P ) what it means though is you can't use that consulate until you're unlocked and can book another appointment :/

The other thai consulate is in Savannakhet (across the river from Mukdahan)

They are walk up service, this is their website

NOTE: The thai consulate in Vientiane does NOT issue year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant visas of any type. Just 90 day single entry.

It's the thai consulate in Savannakhet that used to issue the year-long, multi-entry Non-O's for marriage to a thai and raising half thai children.

It does not list that they offer the year-multi Non-O on the Savannakhet thai consulate website, you write year/multiple on the application form and you give them 5000baht. <- That's how it worked before and hopefully how it will continue to work.

At this time no one knows if they will continue to do it as no one has visa run to Savannakhet for one and reported back in yet.

Here is the entry process to Lao

Is Thailand open without the Thailand pass??

With the changes is it still for STV to get a COVID visa extension. I’ve done the COVID extension 3 times already on top of the initial 9 months I was granted. Thanks

Updated clarification on ThaiPass 72 window. You can use your Thaipass up to 72 hours AFTER your listed flight. You cannot change the date of your flight BEFORE your Thaipass has been issued for.

Why? probably just to make people's lives more difficult, but that's what the MOH clarified today and someone was just denied boarding on a connecting flight in DBX because of it.
