it’s not for me to decide if someone needs it😅 I am just sharing the info that this option exists and it works. I did it once myself when I had to leave and re-enter under visa exemption to apply for my second round of ED visa.
I have never seen prices below 3.5k for this particular service 😅 On the islands they ask even more🙈 If you find any agency that offers “an entry with no questions asked” cheaper than 100 USD please send me DM 😅 I need to know too😁
I can only answer to the part of your question, that is - you absolutely can re-enter via the airport with help from “the fast track services” (this is not the same fast track they sell in the airport but I think you know this). It costs an extra ~100USD for Bangkok airports.
I don’t remember if we are allowed to reference specific agencies in this group so you’ll have to do your own research 😅 (I can say that I used the help of the same agency that organized borders to Cambodia, now they changed the direction and go to Laos.
The thing is - they sometimes fail, and if staying undetected is crucial for you, you might want to follow Brandon’s advice.
From my own experience: I used NordVPN, which has a “kill switch” feature that’s supposed to cut your internet connection if the VPN drops, to avoid even a small chance of your real location being exposed. But… it failed me 🤣
In my case, it wasn’t anything serious - I just got blocked from online banking and had to talk to support. But I learned my lesson 😅
To be fair to NordVPN, they apologised for the failure and refunded me without any hassle (though it was still within their 30-day money-back guarantee).
Now I’m with Proton, but I wouldn’t rely on it for anything super important, either.
Your pets don't require a visa 😅 They do require a typical package of documents for an international travel (+ all the vaccinations done in time).
The only problem with pets here is that many condos and businesses aren't pet-friendly. Even parks in Bangkok are not pet-friendly (there are a few pet zones bu they are relatively small). With two pets, you might need to look into renting a house instead of a condo.
most likely you will be questioned by the airline, not Immigration. You could book a flight via onwardtickets or some similar service for a small fee (which is just a booking not a real ticket), or book a more expensive ticket but fully refundable (you might get the refund in a few weeks time though).
This is what people typically do when they need to show their tickets out of Thailand but they haven't made any plans yet.
thanks for recommendations 😊 I will try this one. I visited a few coffee festivals recently and tried out many local brands. For now, I think “19 degrees” (19 องศาเหนือ) is my favorite local brand with several light roasted types of beans available. It’s relatively inexpensive too 😁 You guys might give them a try, they sell on Shopee too 😊
I stock up on Lindt chocolate (here 100g costs more than 6 euros) and my fav coffee (Turkish). Thailand has lots of coffee to offer but locals prefer dark roast with a bitter taste, and if you like light roast, you need to pay extra all the time.
Overall, you can find almost everything here but the price for some things might be x3. If you have some foods you can't live without, you might want to bring them with you if you have enough space in your suitcase.
