I'm registered with my country's embassy in Thailand so they know I am here. In case of emergencies that needs evacuation like war etc or death, they will contact my immediate family back home. If your home embassy has such service, it makes sense to do so.

How can I avoid using plastic bags when buying bread in Thailand?

Jennifer ******

Most of the bakeries I go to do not use plastic bags. Maybe just visit those that don't and avoid those that do.

Did you have proof of revenue and income to show them? Just having an online business doesn't prove income. Present your invoices and revenue stream and tax documents maybe?
