1. Identify User Context First

Role: Tourist, digital nomad, English teacher, retiree, entrepreneur Timeline: Short visit, extended stay, planning to relocate Load relevant auxiliary file for details

2. Visa Reality

Thailand's visa system is complex and frequently updated: Tourist visa: 60 days + 30-day extension at immigration Visa exemption: 30 days for most Western countries (land: 15 days) ED visa: Study Thai or martial arts, renewable quarterly Retirement visa: 50+, 800,000 THB in bank, yearly renewal Thailand Elite: 5-20 year visa, 600,000-2,000,000 THB upfront LTR (Long-Term Resident): New 10-year visa for remote workers with $80K+ income See visas.md for current requirements and processes.

3. Cultural Context

Thailand is a Buddhist kingdom with deep cultural protocols: Royal family: Never criticize. Lèse-majesté laws are strict (15+ years prison). Temples: Remove shoes, cover shoulders and knees, women can't touch monks Head & feet: Head is sacred, feet are lowest — don't point feet at Buddha/people Wai greeting: Return a wai when given, but don't wai to children or service staff See culture.md for detailed guidance.

4. Weather Reality

Hot season (Mar-May): 35-40°C+ with high humidity — oppressive heat Rainy season (Jun-Oct): Daily afternoon downpours, but still hot Cool season (Nov-Feb): 25-32°C — most pleasant, peak tourist season Air quality: Nov-Feb can have severe pollution (AQI 150+) See climate.md for monthly breakdown and coping strategies.

6. Cost Reality

Bangkok is extremely affordable by Western standards: Housing: Modern condos near BTS for $400-800/month Food: $5-15/day eating local, $20-40 with Western food Transport: $50-100/month with BTS/MRT and occasional Grab Healthcare: World-class private hospitals at 20-30% of US costs Digital nomad budget: $1,000-1,500/month comfortable, $2,000+ luxury

7. Transit Reality

Bangkok has good public transit in central areas: BTS Skytrain: Two lines covering Sukhumvit, Silom, Siam area MRT: Blue and Purple lines, good coverage including Chinatown Boats: Chao Phraya express boats, khlong (canal) boats Taxis: Metered, cheap (40 THB start), but traffic is brutal Grab: Essential app — works for cars, bikes, delivery Motorbike taxis: Fast through traffic, orange vests, negotiate price Traffic is a defining feature of Bangkok. Plan around BTS/MRT coverage.

Bangkok-Specific Traps

Visa runs — Immigration cracking down on repeat visa-exempt entries. Plan proper visa. Taxi meter refusal — Drivers at tourist spots refuse meter. Walk away or use Grab. Tuk-tuk scams — "Temple closed" then gem shop. Ignore, use apps. Royal criticism — Any negative comment about monarchy is criminal (lèse-majesté). Drug penalties — Severe. Possession can mean death penalty for trafficking. 90-day reporting — Long-term visa holders must report address every 90 days. Work permit requirement — Working without permit is illegal, even remote work technically. Jet ski scams — Pattaya/islands. Avoid renting jet skis entirely. Gem/tailor scams — "Special government sale" is always a scam. Pollution season — Jan-Mar air quality can be hazardous. Bring N95 masks. Rainy season flooding — Some areas flood badly. Check before renting. ATM fees — 220 THB per withdrawal. Bring debit card with fee reimbursement.

Legal Awareness

Key laws visitors/residents must know: Lèse-majesté: Insulting monarchy = 3-15 years prison per offense. Extremely enforced. Drugs: Zero tolerance. Death penalty for trafficking (750g+ cannabis, 20g+ heroin). Gambling: Illegal (except government lottery). Private poker games are raided. Vaping: E-cigarettes are illegal in Thailand. 10-year sentence possible. Pornography: Illegal. Possession/distribution can mean prison. Overstaying visa: 500 THB/day fine, possible ban, detention for long overstays. Work without permit: Deportation, fine, potential blacklist. See safety.md for comprehensive guidance.

Digital Nomad Context

Bangkok is a top digital nomad hub: Coworking: Dozens of spaces (Hubba, The Hive, Glowfish, WeWork) Internet: 100+ Mbps fiber common in condos, good café WiFi Cafes: Work-friendly cafes everywhere, no time limits usually Community: Large nomad community, regular meetups Legal gray area: Remote work for foreign employer is technically illegal without work permit Solutions: ED visa (studying Thai), Thailand Elite, new LTR visa for high earners See nomad.md for coworking spaces, communities, and visa strategies.
