In Bangkok, any advice please. Need a Thailand DL. I have IDP & current DL and retirement visa.

Heading to Laos tmrw for my DTV just wondering as I’m 30 km out of Bangkok if the local banks carry USD

Hello All,

My mother has a US passport and will fly into BKK after about a week she will come to Chiang Mai.

My question regarding the new online arrival card is about the trip and accommodation section.

Should she use the address for the hotel in Bangkok where she will enter Thailand and begin her trip?

Or should she use our home address in Chiang Mai where she will stay for the majority of her time in Thailand?

Thank you in advance 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Hi everyone, can anyone recommend a cooking course option for DTV visa in Phuket, preferably, or else in Bangkok that is not too expensive? Thanks

Anyone have a point of contact for a driver and van to drive from Bangkok to Raynong, Phuket and back over a 10 day period?

Any agent recommendation for the NON O Retirement visa? Bangkok or Pattaya.

Do you know any driver that can drive me from Bangkok to Pattaya?

I am an American in Bangkok with a non O visa and need to open a bank account. Any recommendations on which bank or branch I should try first? Thanks

How much an agent / firm is charging for taking care of retirement visa in Bangkok ?

Well getting caught in the U.S. Federal Government downsizing so will be retiring this year versus next year. Right now I'm planning on landing along the coast between Bangkok and Pattaya and will be applying for the 90 day "O" visa (I think versus the OA) to enter and then doing the one year extension after I get a bank account sorted out. So a few questions for anyone willing to provide any guidance or thoughts to the following:

1) Not 100% sure this is where I want to end up, but would it be better to stay in the same area until after the first 12 month Visa extension is completed or isn't this an issue (I keep reading there are slight differences in different immigration offices).

2) Anyone have a recommendation on an agency to assist with the opening a bank account, getting Thai license, and 12 month extension either in Pattaya or Bangkok?

I expect to arrive in Thailand sometime late Oct or early mid November (just completed a two week vacation there a couple of weeks ago. Any other thoughts or tidbits someone wants to share will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
