well yes, but not really of any consumer's concern, for example, making cannabis brownies requires cannabis butter.. Which is an extract. It matters for companies selling these things; a brownie is not an extract.. However an extract is required to make them. ;)
It's not really difficult or require lawyers. And extract is well defined in chemistry/pharmacy, it's when you concentrate an active ingredient in a solution, typically oil or alcohol.
is completely decriminalised, so anyone can grow it; if you can grow lettuce legally then you can grow cannabis too. (Can't make it a business/work obviously without all that paperwork, but if it don't have a problem growing a cabbage then you won't have a problem with cannabis.
By going to your district office for the place where you live and getting a yellow house book done. This will require cooperation from the home owner. The house book already has your ID on it, and at the same time you can then make a pink ID card.
Will start doing that too. (And you don't even need to tell them about not doing a TM30; without a passport number or nationality they can't submit one.)
It's basically corruption and an attempt at scamming money. The TM30 database is their own ducking system; it really doesn't require a piece of paper provided by the tenant to show data that they can just query for. Never mind that the TM30 requirement (and potential fine for failing to do it) applies to the hotel/host/landlord, not the tourist/guest/tenant.
Yet they bother tourists with it, trying to scam a couple sad Baht when it turns out a TM30 has not been filled.
Ok, I thought everyone in this group would have an understanding of the current situation so people would have the context to understand a quick and somewhat uncouth comment on my part, but I was wrong. Some people even managed 2020-levels of panic on masks, something that's not really a topic anymore in Thailand.
Because what is the current context: masks are no longer mandated by authorities. Most places have stopped asking for them such as shopping malls, 7-elevens, etc. It's entirely voluntary: if someone feels they want to wear a mask then they can. Some specific places may also still require them for entirely sensible reasons, such as cramped mass transit (Skytrain, etc.) or medical facilities.
We just came out of the Loy Krathong festival, and here in Chiang Mai at least there were extremely few masks to be seen. I'll link to some photos of the event. Even Bangkok-based TV stations have stopped with showing everyone with masks on. So.. it's done!
Now as for the original post, from what context there is you can just politely decline. But it depends: if you're entering their business then clearly it's their rules. Just out in the open air on a street however... you're extremely unlikely to be asked to wear a mask, especially outside of Bangkok. (Bangkok is always the most up-tight on everything, it barely resembles 'Thailand' in that regard. )
