Carin de Vries. This doesn't actually exempt someone from having the PCR test, which is a separate criterion. This simply states a person needs only one subsequent vaccine
Bobby ********
Don't you need a PCR test to board the flight? If it's positive you won't be allowed to board

Tony Grace. Wrong on so many counts. This is the kind of crap advice that scares people. There's no red stamp, it's a small dark blue stamp written totally in Thai so no other country anywhere in the world will know what it means. It's 500 Baht per day, NOT 2000 Baht. More crap advice. And an overstay fine does NOT stop anyone from returning. An overstay arrest can result in a 12 month ban, but a simple fine does not. Perhaps don't comment until you know what you're talking about

As
@Michael *******
says, you weigh up the price of extension v overstay. Keep in mind that (depending which immigration office you use) in many cases you can write off a whole day getting that extension, and sitting in an immigration office is not comparable to sitting on the beach sipping cocktails. A few days overstay is not a heinous crime, it's "easy money" for immigration. It's only when you drift past a few weeks it starts getting serious (and expensive).

Paul Darby. And for me. When I hear the stories of how people are refused bank accounts I always give them that piece of advice. Take-a-Thai. It works wonders.
Bobby ********
Paul Darby. YES!!! ABSOLUTELY!! A Thai person is an absolute must as far as I'm concerned.

Nick Woods. Savings account is what is needed. I thought current accounts went out with cheque books!

Try Amazon. Go to the main page and under search type "visa for gf". They have specials until the end of the month

Mike Gholson. OA is the best option for four months. Everything is done via eVisa in the UK. No money transfer and insurance obtained in the UK can be used. Will not have to stuff around getting an extension in-country

Jay Storey. Stay on the phone, but while you're waiting you might try sending a message through their Facebook page. I've heard people have more success that way, so either way you've nothing to lose
