Paying car tax

I need to renew my car tax before the end of January which is something I haven't done before. Can someone tell me which documents I need to take with me? Also is it possible to pay at the Bluport office where I do my 90 day immigration check?
Thanks in advance

Re: Kitten poisoned by frog

Thanks for all the responses! Having taken this issue further with my wife she now tells me the egg is used only to make the animal vomit therefore getting the toxin out of the animal! I'm sure my kitten Mena didn't vomit and I guess it's just a lucky escape. And yes PeteC I'm sure she's learned a l...

Kitten poisoned by frog

We recently bought a siamese kitten (Mena) who has quickly become the love of our life ! Today we were in the garden and Mena spots a frog jumping across the grass. She quickly joins the chase and seems to sniff and lick the frog. Seconds later Mena is foaming at the mouth and clearly in some distre...

Re: New Hop-on, Hop-off bus service launched in Hua Hin

What about prices during the week - is it 300 baht for a single journey? Are there, for example, monthly travel tickets at a discounted price?

Re: Driving to Phuket

I don't even know what a Thailand Pass is! Is this a requirement to stay in any hotel on Phuket and if so, please tell how do I get one?

Driving to Phuket

I am planning a trip to Phuket and intend to drive. Does anyone know of any restrictions or requirements for driving onto the island ? I have my vaccination certificate but wondered whether some test result may be required. All the information for travellers seems to be related to arriving on Phuket...

Re: Indian restaurants in Hua Hin

The best Indian food I've had recently was at Eat at Sivana, Soi 126. It's very handy for me though 15-20 mins drive south of Hua Hin centre. The food quality is excellent and not pricey. Chef is an Indian who speaks good English and happy to tweak the food as required. They have a very busy home de...

Re: New Year's Eve entertainment and fireworks

The recently opened hotel The Standard has a number of events although they have cancelled the visit of a famous Bangkok DJ they told me. Non residents can join in but must present their vaccine certificate and do an additional test on arrival at the hotel! All hotel guests (half of their 200 rooms)...

Re: Covid-19 Omicron Variant

My two vaccinations to date were arranged through the BCCT in Bangkok. I have contacted them asking whether a booster jab is available and told they are awaiting government (British presumably?) instruction. Is it possible to organise a booster jab through the hospitals or clinics here in Hua Hin?

Re: Thailand tourist slump continues

I'm thinking of driving down to Phuket for a break and to take advantage of the attractive hotel rates. I've had my jabs and got my certificate (courtesy of BCCT). Does anyone know if there is any other requirement for driving onto the island eg testing or similar?

Re: Vaccines - Covid 19

I was in Bangkok yesterday for my second jab through the BCCT scheme. I had previously asked by email whether a venue in Hua Hin was possible but was told "no"! I should say that I arrived one hour early for my 11.00 am appointment though I was registered, processed and jabbed and back out...
