What are the experiences and challenges of long-distance relationships with someone from Thailand?

Mitchell *******

I was. A mutual friend connected us up. We did the online thing for about 6 months. We arranged to meet on my next trip to Thailand, and we have been a couple for the last 5 years.

But I agree that you should be careful. Especially if she lives in Pattaya.

What is the best place to exchange USD for Baht in Bangkok?

Mitchell *******

That part about the exchange rate is a good point. NEVER take the exchange the ATM offers. (Or that hotels offer for that matter.).

Do I need to show onward travel when entering Thailand with a 30-day visa exemption?

Mitchell *******

I have been asked once by the airline flying me, as well as once by Thai immigration. Both pre Covid though. As I wasn't staying over a month anyway, I had them booked already.

You may as well book one of your excursion flights now. Just in case.

Do I need a tourist visa and vaccinations to travel to Thailand from London with Spanish nationality?

Mitchell *******

1. If you have a Spanish passport, you are visa exempt for 30 days.

2. As of now, you need to either be fully vaccinated, or test before arrival.

These and other answers are on the Thai pass website

Where can I find Tylenol PM in Thailand?

Ya, many people wouldn't know what Tylenol is. You need to ask for, or look for "Paracetamol". Or get it translated.

How can I make a complaint about my VAT refund not being received in Thailand?

Mitchell *******

Yeah, you need your passport when you make a purchase. It can be a hassle as you have to have the things checked before security, and get your $$$ after security.
