Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

Our Austrian neighbours are here on a 3 month STV and came in under the Test and Go scheme. The visa expires in Feb. We’re guessing the Ranong border dash isn’t possible at the moment so does anyone know how and where they can apply for a 3 month extension? Is this available at Dan Singkhon or only ...

Banknote exchange in banks

Question re the COVID related limits on banknote exchange. Some newly arrived European neighbours have been asking about changing euros to baht in Bang Saphan. Does anyone know if the banks’ Covid “no notes” exchange rule is still in place in other branches around the province - or does everyone sti...

Re: Vaccines - Covid 19

Does anyone (perhaps the ever wise @Grovehillwanderer ) know what is actually being measured in this 40 times claim? What’s the base they’re calculating from? https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-first-lab-tests-on-omicron-in-south-africa-suggest-pfizer-vaccine-may-be-up-to-40-times-less-effective-ag...

Re: Vaccines - Covid 19

Not sure if this is the correct thread for this but has anyone got any idea about how to change incorrect information on the vaccination certificate / Mor Phrom? Do I just go to the hospital where I was vaccinated or do I need to go to the Public Health Office? I’m guessing info can’t be changed on...

Re: Getting a Green Card covid vaccine certificate

I just tried using the Mor Phrom app request form for the yellow vaccination passport. The plus points are that the form is bilingual and easy to navigate, and there are no issues with attaching copies of passport info page and vaccination certificate. The weakness so far is the vaccine passport is...

Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

A 'B' visa is a business visa, a retirement visa is an 'O' - they're two different things since you can't work on the latter. In fact, there are more types of retirement extension than the standard OA that most people have. I was employed here for many years and had a work permit with a B visa. My ...

Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

Hi!

Has anyone had recent experience of renewing a retirement extension on a B visa? If so were there any changes from last year?
I’m particularly interested in whether a requirement for health / Covid insurance has been introduced?
Thanks!
