Hua Hin Forum

Hi Pet, I renewed my 5 year Thai license, about 3 weeks ago at Pranburi. I'd went to the clinic on the opposite side of the main Phetchkasem road from Hua Hin hospital the night before to get the medical certificate. I was really pleased as it only cost 100 baht! :D Anyway at Pranburi ...... I'm fai...

Hi,

I need to obtain the letter from Immigration confirming my residence to renew my licence ...... what do I need?

Is there a form that I need to fill out before hand? Do I need a photo?

Thanks in anticipation of your help.

Cheers Vincent,

I'll try the convenience store.

I was going to wait until tomorrow, but I've a couple of things to do today (using the car) ...... so I thought it would be better done today.

Hi,

Is there anywhere open today (Sunday) where I can buy a can of engine oil?

Could do with giving the old car a little top up.

Aaaaaahhhhhh ... it all makes sense now ...... I think :thumb: Every year when I've done my annual extension, they always put a slip in, and also tell me when my 90 days are due to be notified. i.e. they've automatically done the 90 days for me. Well ......... until this year! :roll: I did notice th...

Hi, I went to Tha Yang immigration yesterday to do our 90 day reporting, the first one since the renewal of our Non-Imm "O" (retirement) visas in September. I wondered if they would need to see evidence that I still had at least 800,000 Baht in my account, I was NOT going to offer the info...

Hi handdrummer, I'm afraid I don't know who made the final delivery to us. What is the difference between a private delivery company and a private carrier? I think the guy was wearing a uniform, and I signed his "atm" type thing for proof of delivery. Apologies for not being able to supply...

Hi, Just an update to my original cry for help :D It took me 2, possibly 3 days at most, before I could scan the documents which would hopefully enable our shipment to clear customs. I was feeling quite chuffed with myself, ....... until my wife informed me that the order had been cancelled! The rea...

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated as always.

Strangely enough, my wife had ordered something from Amazon (UK) two weeks ago, and it arrived without any problems! Surely Thai customs aren't picking on America?

Hi, My wife ordered some curcumin (pain killer) from Amazon (US) which we believe has now arrived at Swampy. We have received an email from UPS wanting us to send, and I've copied it here:- In case UPS clearance, kindly provide following information to us; 1. Copy of Passport . 2. Thai description a...

As I posted in restaurant news, the site which has previously been occupied by Mr Burger 3, and then Oasis, is now open again as, "Gala Lagoon" It has only been open for a few days, and has undergone which a bit of refurbishment. There has been a general thinning out of the bushes etc. aro...

Mr. Burger 3 which reopened as Oasis, has now been reopened as Gala Lagoon!

Hi GroveHillWanderer, It certainly sounds like you could be right, however I remain puzzled, :? because the sites were working fine for months. It's just in the last week, or 10 days that it has been a problem. The sites we want to watch continue to work fine on my laptop. :? Does anyone know if the...

Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply, I seem to have all updates installed. Further investigations show that I can view videos on some websites, but not others. :? Unfortunately I don't see phoning the helpdesk in Bangkok, and explaining my problem in Thai as being a starter ....... I sometimes have troub...

Hi, I have a problem with my LG smart TV .......... I can watch Netflix, Youtube, no problems, but when I try to watch videos on the web browser it does not work. In the address bar a yellow triangle with a white exclamation mark inside it appears on top of the padlock. Any help or suggestions would...
