A guy walks up to the 'Visa on arrival' counter at the Bangkok International Airport and presents two Indian passports with 3000 baht cash and says, "Two visas. For me and my wife. Here are the passports and cash." The officer at the counter says, "Extra 2000 Baht please." The man asks him, "Why extra 2000 Baht?" Says the officer, "Corkage Sir." The man, irked a little, asks back, "What corkage ? I'm not in a pub and not bringing my own whiskey!" The officer politely replies, "This is Thailand Sir, and we charge corkage for bringing your own wife to Thailand." |
