and the baht is over 35.2 to the $$




Funny how Thai embassy in PP charges $40 while everywhere else its only 1,000 baht

Aren't single entry tourist visas those which are applied for on arrival by Chinese and Indians? Does this mean they're free?

NO; those are visas on arrival

these are single entry TOURIST visas valid for 60 day stay,( which for a payment of 1,900 baht) can be extended in country for another 30 days
NOT to be confused with 30 day VISA EXEMPT entries

Disregard that list of 19 countries because it now applies to all countries. Don't know what happened but it looks like immigration in Thailand only put out half a news bulletin and forgot to mention 60 day tourist visas or changed their mind at the last minute.
I think it's very significant they are doing this in the middle of the high season.

changed their minds.
Now is the start of the high season

I would avoid Thailand at all costs .the police searches and police corruption , random beating of farangs , general ripp offs enough to make me go somewhere else .

Agreed. Why risk it? People will say "it could happen anywhere" but "it does happen in Thailand, not "could".

The rapes, murders, assaults aren't happening in Malaysia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Laos or Cambodia.

Their desperation is palpable. What happened to the 33 million?

BS
better living here now than before. Regardless of what u that have no idea dont know is, they are tackling the corruption ( slowly)
random beatings?? yea must be 1,000 of them each year unlike a western country, rips off? no different than Cambodia if ur stupid

Look it is far from perfect, but still the best place to live, visit ( 32 million cant be all wrong) or raise a family on a limited budget and have all the things u want in se asia

I must remember to tell Suzanne Nam Thailand Travel Expert that she doesn't know what she's talking about

" In most of Thailand, high season starts in November and lasts through January."
according to her December is in the middle of high season?
