I can’t wait to be back in Bangkok even if it will only be a weekend trip because I already miss the food (especially their Pad Thai and the fried curry crab meat from Somboon Seafood) !!!

ps. if you went shopping in Bangkok and the items have a “vat/tax refund/rebate” keep the receipts (and probably some items) on your hand carry during your flight back

A. Inside the airport:

1. Look for the VAT refund booth
2. Show them your receipt with the paper attached for VAT refund
3. Have them stamp the VAT refund paper

B. After entering immigration, look for the VAT refund booth

1. Give them the VAT refund paper
2. Give them your passport
3. Wait for your refund
