Pattaya —
Pattaya police conducted a raid on four bars around the city on June 2nd after receiving complaints that these venues allegedly operated beyond legal hours.
The raid took place on four venues located on Soi Kho Phai, South Pattaya Road, and Pattaya Third Road. The authorities uncovered that the venues, one of which was a host bar, reportedly stayed open beyond legal hours.
The host bar was also found to be operating and selling alcohol illegally without licenses. Additionally, some of the raided venues sold kratom-infused beverages without a license.
Pattaya police filed charges against the establishments. They would also seek an order to permanently close some of the venues that repeatedly broke the law.
Police did not, however, specifically name the establishments or individuals involved, citing ongoing legal action.
Legal closing times in Pattaya differ depending on the location and license of the venue in question, generally running from midnight to 4AM.
Pattaya police stated they will continue to monitor bar establishments and entertainment venues to ensure they are properly following all Thai laws.
