    Tourist Police
    Should anything untoward happen to you during your stay – theft, disagreements etc – your best port of call in the first instance will be with The Hua Hin Tourist Police. Whilst they do not have the same authority as the regular police in town, they are always on hand to assist you initially. All the officers speak reasonable English and can guide you through what next to do if you have problems. Should a report be necessary at the local police station, they will accompany you there to help with translation and other matters.
    Their office is located at the end of Damnoen Kasem Road, right at the main entrance to the beach. Tel 1155.

    Hua Hin Police
    The police station is situated on Damnoen Kasem Road, opposite the CAT offices and Post Office. Tel 032 511027. Emergency numbers are 191 (police), 195 (crime), 199 (fire).

    Hua Hin Immigration
    This office recently relocated to the beach road, near 19 Rai Queen Sirikit Park. Until this relocation, the local office was a subsiduary of Singkhon Immigration in Prachuabkirikhan, but the latter has now closed and the staff have moved to Hua Hin. They can issue visa extensions, process 90 day reporting, issue re-entry permits and take initial long-term visa extension applications. More information on Hua Hin immigration can be found here: Hua Hin immigration

    Post Office
    The main Post Office is on Damnoen Kasem Road, opposite the main police station. Mail back to Europe, Scandanavia and North America normally takes about a week and the postal service is generally reliable. You can set up post restante facilities here. You can also use postal services through some local shopping malls as the main post office often gets very busy.

    Overseas telephone
    The main Communication Authority of Thailand (CAT) office is on Damnoen Kasem Road just past the Post Office. The building is air-conditioned and they can provide the telephone numbers necessary for you to call home cheaply from individual booths.

    Tourist Offices
    The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) was established in 1960 to promote tourism to the country. The first office was in Chiang Mai and there are now 22 local offices throughout the country. TAT also maintains a presence overseas, now having 15 offices worldwide.

    Hua Hin is no longer a sleepy fishing town. All major Thai banks are represented here including the exchange booths and ATMs located throughout. Therefore, to access your money is not a problem.

    It is advisable to inform your bank in the home country that you will be using your card in Thailand. There are cases that the card is blocked while using here. The phone call to the bank will resolve the problem but it is better to take a precaution.

    Traveler cheques, a popular means to keep your money, can be exchanged at the bank booths or exchange booth everyday. Most of them open until 08.00 pm. Credit and debit cards can be used with withdrawal fees by your bank.

    The matter of keep your money safe is critical. Credit and debit card fraud exist here and you should always be aware of this. Never leave your card out of your sight and keep your wallet in a safe place.
