Topics I've Started

Taxing My Truck

2012-05-10 15:24:13

Grateful for some help and advice. My truck's tax expires Tuesday 15th May; my insurance expires 26th July. I took all my papers to the Land Transport place today and the reception people directed me to an insurance company on the premises who wanted to charge me 800 THB for some sort of cover. I don't want any more insurance. I already have it. So I declined and took my papers and left. It appears that when renewing my tax last year the Land transportation people removed the slip from my cover note. Anyone got any suggestions on what I should do to resolve this problem? Thanks in advance

Overcharging In Restaurant

2011-10-09 06:56:32

We ate out last night in a restaurant in Chumphon: whole steamed sea bass and a slice of salt fish;large bowl of rice; two small bottles of Pepsi and a small bottle of water. I was expecting to pay about 300b but we were charged 450b. This was a street front restaurant, plastic tables and chairs, nothing fancy and the food was, not surprisingly, poor. First time in three years in Thailand I have ever been served undercooked rice! I paid after protesting and meeting with the blank expression. This doesn't happen very often but it does happen.  But what can you do in a situation like this?  Excuse me if this is posted in wrong sub-forum.

Changing 30 Day Permit To Non-Imigrant O

2011-09-18 08:11:46

My mother-in-law, a retired Filipino national aged 63 recently arrived in Thailand and was admitted with a standard 30 day permission to stay stamped in her Philippine passport. The plan was for my mother-in-law to apply to change status to Non-Imigrant O stay to assist us as my wife, her daughter, is pregnant and we also have a young son. Daughter, teacher, resident in Thailand on non-B for last five years, all paperwork and work permit in order. So they headed to CHaeng Wattana Immigration to change the status with more than 19 days of her current entry permit remaining. Problem with her paperwork, specifically her birth certificate and it is going to take about a week to get one that will be acceptable to Bangkok immigration. By this time there will be less than 19 days remaining of her current entry permit. So we would welcome advice on the best way to proceed: can we extend the current permit and then apply for the change of status? Many thanks
