Yes but you’re not traveling around when it’s in the safe I presume. Cheers

I thought that you were required to carry your passport to prove that you have a valid visa if challenged. Or am I missing something? I wouldn’t travel within Thailand without it available at all times. Remember, Thais with uniforms have no sense of reason or logic. Only their own interpretation of the rules. Easy way to get caught out not having it available if you ask me. Don’t chance it. Cheers

Yup!! I smile through gritted teeth sometimes, but it’s their country and and their rules. Cheers

If you really want a bank account in Thailand, speak to a lawyer and get them go do it for you. Just smile when you pay the bill because you’ve achieved what you wanted with the minimum of grief. I’d advise looking exited about taking out the probable years insurance usually offered when you actually sign up for your account. Don’t refuse it. It earns the bank manager brownie points for selling it. Follow my drift.

As usual , it’s the way things work in Thailand. Go with the flow.

Not wishing to start a conspiracy thread, but I’d rather have the Oxford type vaccine rather than the MRNA type which is new science. That’s my recommendation if you feel the need. Reports seem to indicate less after effects. Cheers

Obviously a responsible company. Nice to hear some get it right.

I can see a whole load of grief coming up shortly for travellers. What happens if you can’t have the. Vaccine because of allergy problems? Like me...... I’m just waiting for the poo hit the pat lom. Cheers

Thailand doesn’t at the moment,but we are talking about airlines requiring it not the country.

However you know how Thai’s like to make up rules just to piss off falangs. !!!

They’re well practiced in the art. Cheers mate

That’s probably against human rights but you can see the logic. So if he makes that a ruling, it’s only a small step to mandating it for passengers, on the grounds of protecting his staff and passengers from each other. And also escaping any liability which is probably at the root of his thinking. Cheers

Not at present I believe. But trust me it’s coming. I don’t think that you will be able to fly without a vaccination certificate the way it’s going. It’s already a requirement to fly with Quantas. Cheers

You should already understand that they are not there to help or assist in any way. They see their job as judge and jury , to make everything as tough as possible- unless you are an illegal immigrant, in which case it appears to be just the opposite. Makes me sick!!
