10-12-20 02:36 #12179Sorry I don't have a bright answer for you I understand your need to return in fact I'm pulling for you because if you can get in we are making some progress for me to leave and return myself. Whatever the idea by the government you break it down through " critical thinking " I wish I was wrong but it isn't going to happen all they seem to be doing is throwing idea's out there to show the Thai people they are doing something which just end up to be nothing. The more they talk the worse it gets till one idea is falling all over the other?

Then you got programs if you invest $1 million USD = 30 M baht when they have already suggested programs for far cheaper the list goes on and on. For those who have a Elite minimum it is reported beginning of the year they are going to raise the amount 100,000 baht from the 500,000 now that is just damn smart on their part.

10-11-20 04:59 #12177I had heard this may become an option to getting in to Thailand so I booked a Bangkok hotel. Originally Posted by BananaBoi

The only minor issue is that I am pretty certain anyone who was out of Thailand when the borders closed would not have their proof of property ownership documentation with them. Guess they can have their favorite gogo girl send that stuff to them.Foreigners who own property in Thailand have been added to the group of non-Thais who are now able to apply to return to the country. But before you get too excited, be warned there are a whole host of eye opening requirements that need to be met as part of the application process.
Firstly, property owners need to be able to provide documentation that shows they do indeed own a property, this could be in the form of a house registration book or proof of purchase documentation.
Next, (and this is the first of the eye opening requirements) they need to be able to provide a copy of a bank statement that shows a balance of at least 3 million baht deposited into a Thai bank account. They also need to show a bank statement from a <insert your country> bank account that has a balance of 500,000 baht for the past 6 months. They then need to meet all the other requirements necessary for any non-Thai returning to Thailand currently such as, Certificate of Entry, declaration form, quarantine booking, Fit to Fly Certificate, COVID-19 negative test result and an insurance policy which covers COVID-19 and up to 100,000 USD.
Once all of the requirements have been met, the foreign property owner then needs to apply for a Non-B visa to enter Thailand.
While the addition of foreign property owners gives hope to some foreigners to be able return to Thailand, it may do little to help what is arguably one the biggest groups of foreigners stranded outside the kingdom - expat retirees. <snip>
The full list of requirements for foreign property owners to enter Thailand can be found below:
For non-Thai who own property in Thailand
While Thailand still puts in place travel restriction, foreigners who own property in Thailand can apply for non-B visa and the Certificate of Entry to go to Thailand.
Required documents :
Your passport copy
Copy of property ownership document in Thailand, or proof of purchase of property and relevant documents
Copy of bank statements of a Thai bank account with deposit at least 3 million baht (approx. 77,000), or Thai government bonds at least 3 million baht
Copy of bank statement of a UK/Irish bank account with deposit at least 500,000 baht (approx. 12,800) for the past 6 months
Declaration form
A copy of flight confirmation
A copy of ASQ booking confirmation
<snip>
What you need to present at airlines check-in counter and upon arrival in Thailand:
The Certificate of Entry
Declaration form
Fit to Fly health certificate, issued within 72 hours before departure this is a statement by a doctor that you are free from symptoms and fit to fly (must be separate from COVID test)
COVID-19 test result, with a laboratory output indicating that COVID -19 is not detected (COVID test must be by RT-PCR method), issued within 72 hours before departure
Copy of your insurance policy which covers COVID-19 and no less than 100,000 USD
Copy of your confirmed booking at an ASQ hotel
T.8 form
However, here is one big requirement that there is no chance in hell I will follow. I refuse to deposit 3 million Thai baht ($97,000 US) and leave it in a Thai bank account! I'd bet that most guys who own property in Thailand don't even have disposable cash like that. Anyone smart would have that money invested in other real estate or something else.
Even AFTER you have done all of the above and have the 3 million baht in the Thai bank account you are now qualified to APPLY for a Visa! No guarantee you will actually get in to Thailand!

The Night Owl's Last Flight
Bernard Trink's cremation is at Wat Ta Thong (Ekkamai station) today at 2 pm. Those of you who don't know who he is or are not familiar with his place in BKK nightlife history should do a little reading.

10-10-20 02:12 #12175I wonder what percent are afraid of ghosts. Quite a few Thai ladies I've met were terrified of them. Some mentioned being afraid of the Rajah Hotel. Did someone die there and leave there ghost behind. LOL. Originally Posted by Pimpampoumpipo

Insurance Bingo
I checked out 30 days as an alien (Star Trek) seeking medical help. 2500 Thai baht. Might be ok if you could hole up with "nurses" in Nana but I imagine the visa would be hard to get. For me, the SE Asian file is closed. But so are many others. Young are having house parties, raves etc, old are scared to death. Originally Posted by Pimpampoumpipo

This is the last Thai game
The rules of the game: the worse you are in your COVID results, the more you pay for your mandatory insurance.
https://www.tipinsure.com/CovidRegional/step_1
1 - Among the best: Germany. Ok no arguing, they are having exceptional results again. I don't know how they do it but once again they are the best.
In addition, the king does his lokckdown at their place. No one can fight. These are the winners.
2 - UK! They pay twice less for their insurance when they are among the worst scores in the world ! They must have bought the jury.
3 - At the back of the pack: USA and France. We pay twice the price of others because we are supposedly countries at risk! It is totally unfair. Let's make the revolution.

"90% of the inhabitants of Chiang Mai are afraid of return of foreign tourists" according to another poll by Maejo Poll published today (Sorry i only have french version :
https://cmdecidela.com/2020/10/08/90-des-habitants-de-chiang-mai-ont-peur-du-retour-des-touristes-etrangers/ )
After that, one can always wonder how these polls are made....

I wonder how the Chinese feel who have been taken for unfortunate Guinea pigs....

Considering the problems that arise to bring in 120 Chinese tourists, I do not see how they are going to reopen the borders to tourism.

------------------------------
"Thailand is bearing the brunt of the economic consequences of the crisis linked to the Covid-19 epidemic, in particular due to the almost complete closure of its borders. The country will sink into a recession of around 8% in 2020, notably following the end of international tourism and the fall in exports.
The social crisis linked to this economic recession promises to be unprecedented, in a turbulent political context. The recovery trajectory for Thailand after the crisis remains very uncertain, due to the uncertainties weighing on tourist flows and competitiveness problems which have steadily increased since the mid-2000's.

Did you ever see that movie Point Blank with Keanu Reeves? They use presidential masks of several former presidents during a bank robbery. Originally Posted by EdSetra

Excelent Post / Link
It is information like that we need now. I doubt I will ever see Thailand again and your link tells me it is no loss. Corrupt people anywhere just cannot mend their ways, no matter what the cost is. Originally Posted by Pimpampoumpipo

Is the Thai king still "quarantining" in Germany?
On a positive note, there will be no shortage of young women to plant and harvest Isaan's rice next season.
