What do land borders have to do with anything that OP has mentioned?? His work base isn't Siem Riep, it's NYC.

Haha. You're fishing for a win after telling me twice I was incorrect.

What's "massive?" I first heard the song in the 70's when Santa Esmerelda sang it. A lot of people learned of the song through Santa Esmerelda either in the 70's or the 2000's after their version became popular again from Kill Bill. But go ahead and enjoy your fishing expedition.

Yep. And all hotels, restaurants. Even many of the combini's in Tokyo are staffed by South and Southeast Asians, these days.

@Andi **********

You beat me to it. You're correct.

@Jet *******

That's incorrect. There are more foreign workers in Japan than ever. And that's not counting the illegal workers who went there on a tourist visa for the purpose of finding work. Immigration there knows this but they know small and medium companies there are starved for labor so they look the other way. Same in Korea.

@Jo *********

You're wrong Dear. I never mentioned who wrote it. Nina Simone recorded it and made it famous first (not Eric Burdon and the Animals.)

@Jo *********

Not the point. You are seeing something in my comment I never said.

@Jay ******

@Lynnette ******

It was covered by many singers, but Nina Simone got there first.

"I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood"

Ignore the peanut brains trying to give you grief over a legitimate question. They look for people to put down and don't even pay attention to the name of this group.🙄

As others have said, you will be fine without a visa as you're a UK passport holder. Now, as Ronald Tan mentions above, Thailand looks to be implementing an electronic travel authorization requirement which isn't as intimidating as it sounds, but it is an extra step you need to know about. We don't know the details yet, but you will have to go to a Thai government website and fill out an online form in advance. Will probably not be too time consuming or onerous. The US already has it for her visitiors and the UK will have one, too soon. Just something that comes with the times. But keep an eye out for this so you know by when to go online and submit it.
