Re: 1 to 5 Year Driving Licence Renewal

Ok Folks, Here's my experience of renewing my 2 licences from 1 to 5 years at DLT Pranburi a little over 3 hours ago. I may possibly have just set an all time record. (Read to the end). After taking snippets of advice posted on here and a couple of other forums I went armed with the following:- 1. 2...

1 to 5 Year Driving Licence Renewal

Hi Folks, I know this has probably been "forumed" to death but after a search, I still can't find what I want. :shock: Has anyone got a link or current information on exactly what I need to do to renew both my car and bike licences from 1 year to 5 years. And if you could include in the in...

Re: Money Changers

I think the OP means one of these Chinese money changers. Like you find in Pattaya sitting at a desk in the back of a shop selling for instance antiques or whatever. There are no signs. You have to know where to go. One would expect this service to be available in Hua Hin as well. Best way to find ...

Money Changers

Does anyone know of any money changers here in HH that offer a better rate than the banks? I have used one in Pattaya but have never come across one here.

Re: Non-Imm O (married) visa extension & New Passport!?

When I was at immigration last month we had a long conversation about my passport expiring before my extension date next year and that requirement (for the embassy to provide a validation letter) was not mentioned. Just how new is this rule? Ok folks, here's an update from within the last hour. Jus...

Re: Non-Imm O (married) visa extension & New Passport!?

Just looked at the email the embassy sent me back in March this year. They required: 1. Scanned copies of the details pages of old and new passports (tell the truth, I can't remember whether I actually sent scans or simple photocopies). 2. The last date I entered Thailand 3. Type of visa 4. My addr...

Re: Non-Imm O (married) visa extension & New Passport!?

"One thing not to forget when you get your new passport is a letter from your embassy confirming that the new passport is genuine. HH Imm want to see that. (The Brit Emb issue for free)."[/quote] I'm quite glad this was brought up. I'm due to extend my retirement visa in December which is ...

Re: Tobacco

Old Man, if you could tell me where to get Amber Leaf that would be a bonus. I certainly haven't seen it in HH.
