@LAZARUSDAL Because it is a lie that the experimentatl, mutagenic jab irresponsibly called a vaccine actually does anything to prevent transmission or lesson your symptoms. Natural immunity as an unvaccinated person is significantly better for the ... Read More

proof of residency by timbkk1998

Hi guys - can i get a document from thai immigration for "proof of residency"? I know I can pay 1,500 baht at the embassy for a stamped statement but I heard it may be possible (and cheaper) to get it from immigration. I need this for ...

It is free from Thai immigration, unless you are using the One Stop Service at Chamchuri Square. They do not offer the service, and the provincial immigration offices will refuse to issue it as you are not in their system. So you are out of luck in ... Read More

New Covid outbreak? by Guest234878

Hi everyone.. I watch Thai news a few times per week just to keep up on the western perspective. I have been watching with some excitement as the Thai government announced its latest effort to open Thailand to tourist. It appears that the Thai ...

I genuinely hope there is no policy for mass vaccinations. None of these vaccines have been thoroughly tested. They are all being made available only under Emergency Use Authorization, with no long term testing and all manufacturers shielded from ... Read More

If you've been in Thailand for 25 years then you know that every work permit office is different. Try a different agency and you may get a different answer. Get your work permit in a different province and you may get a different answer. I have ... Read More

The obvious fix to the tourism problem (to me) by bkk tea blog

The Thai economy is suffering related to a lack of foreign tourism, especially in local resort areas, where a lot of businesses have already failed. There are different "Phuket models" being considered related to re-opening Thailand to ...

Disagree. There is another choice. Open up and accept that you can not control this virus. It was a poorly conceived decision to lockdown and try for a zero infection rate. The original idea of a shutdown was a short period to "flatten the ... Read More

You don't state your age. If you are over 50, a retirement visa would be your easiest solution. Online work for an overseas company isn't technically considered working in Thailand and would not affect your retired status. There will ... Read More

Masks wearing by thailand4me

Hello. I have noticed that mask wearing is becoming very lax here in Thailand. I was in the Mall yesterday and saw many people without masks or with the mask just hanging around there necks. Then there are the ones that cover there mouth only. ...

Keep in mind that masks are for the benefit of others, not for the benefit of the person who wears them. They also offer very little value after a distance of a few meters, so if a person is sufficiently far away from you there is little concern if ... Read More

Thank you very much for the information about the legal issue! But I don't agree, with your opinion, that home homeschooling is dramatically better than any other option in Thailand. The public schools are a mess, that is true of course. Our ... Read More
