Great - I'll go and check the sell by date as the last lot was very nicely priced as the sell by date approached.
The butter was 42 Baht for 250gm and the cheese at 34 and 41 Baht was lovely. Nearly finished it all now.
I could not pay the full price ...............................

OK, I have the 2 hours for my change, actually have 7 hours.
Can one waste 7 hours (5pm to 1am) at the low cost terminal or is it better to wander over to the main terminal for food and watering?

If you like salt water pool try the pool in Sky Breeze Condo - but only for residents!
The pools just been re-done and changed to salt water - must admit it is a BIG improvement.

Places like hotels where people only stay a short time have little incentive to offer dependable internet.
Some Condos, eg Sky Breeze Condo, do have dependable internet using 2 or 3 ISPs, but then the minimum rental is normally 3 months.
Any shared service must have some form of control, you can't let one heavy down loader hog all the bandwidth.

I agree with Thalife69 - you do not need a lawyer if you are sensible and check things. But I doubt you could sue them successfully if things go wrong.
But EVERYTHING is in Thai, including numbers so unless you are totally fluent and read and write Thai you must have a Thai speaker who you totally trust.

I suppose that this point needs to be considered before getting to land registry if a deposit is going to be paid. It can be difficult to get deposits back if land registry refuse to register.
Otherwise do as I did and do not pay even 1 Baht until the land registry has OK'ed everything.

Well for a start your girlfriend is unlikely to get a visa for the UAE. Dependants have to have a marriage cert.
-
Late fees - fines or whatever should be outlined in the regulations as registered at the Land registry.
Maximum charge for overdue accounts is set by the 4th Condo act at 12% up to 6 months and 20 % over six months and can NOT be compounded. We are advised that compound interest is not legal under Thai law. I am not sure if that is under Thai condo law or general Thai law.
The management can turn off utilities, refuse access to facilities and even to the building for owners who are overdue. Again it is in the new law and should by now be in the Condo's regulations.
PS by not compounded we can not charge interest on the interest, but can charge 20% each year on the outstanding amount.

You can claim the tax back, but many airlines make an admin charge for the refund that is a bit more than the tax.

Parents names are required for the purchase of property as part of identifying you, same as you Date of birth etc.
One extra point, if you plan to buy in joint name with a farang partner both names must be on the money transfer documents. My money went from a joint account to a joint account but with only one name on the paperwork and my wife could not be included on the property documents as joint owner.

Another thread gave generally good opinions - you'll have to search for it as I can never get search ot work properly for me .............

Many companies give insurance and a number of them have policies and forms in English.
The price and cover is variable, basically you have to go around and find the cover you want at the price you think is acceptable.
I've used NZI for internet insurance and QBE via their office and via an agent. Both are Australian companies. Via the agent gave less cover for more cost. But as I've never made a claim I can't say if they are any good.

BT also say that they will charge for numbers that re-direct to chargeable numbers, hence calls to Thailand will NOT be free using this system.

Interesting that Garuda are on the list of banned airlines.

Why a double entry? Multiple entry is £10 more and valid for 1 year.
2 x 90 days is not quite 6 months and when I did it that way kept having to do a 3rd border run.

To answer the OP the child is probably not domiciled, it seems he/she does not live in the UK and is not connected with the UK.
The child is almost certainly non resident (spends less than 183 days in the the UK in any one year and less than an average of 91 days in the UK in the past 4 years). If a UK national who is non-dom moves temporarily to the UK but maintains close ties with their country of domicile then they will be treated as non-dom for tax - but it is a tricky one and great care is needed.
The one other main affect of being domiciled/non domiciled is inheritance tax. All UK domiciled persons must pay UK inheritance tax regardless of where in the world they live or die.
But the Inland Revenue will only give a definitive answer as to whether you are domiciled or not when you are due to pay the tax, and by then it is a little late to do anything about it.

If I remember correctly if you own over 50% of the units you only have 50% maximum of the votes.

As normal so many variables.
From memory most flights can through early morning - in end Nov so a temp of 15 C or below is possible. Just lookned, Dec 1 and 2 the overnight minimum was 11C.
But as a proof of concept!

Cathy Pacific and China air did it when Swampi was shut, that is fly CNX to Amsterdam with a full load and presumably fully fuelled. At least no report of any crash.
Runway required at MTOW for the 747-400 is 3018 metres according to my tables. CNX is 3100 metres.
-
Air Berlin will give you a booking CNX - Europe, but uses Thai for the CNX BKK leg.
Also their fares are not that good when I last looked.
-
CNX's runway is big enough for a fully loaded fully fuelled 747 to take off and land - so no problems with European flights.
Remember the end of November, many flights used CNX.

The answer is ask the land tax department.
The amount payable depends,
What value land registry puts on the property (not the price you pay or declare)
Is it commercially owned?
If not how long has it been owned?
Has the gov. extended the reduced rates introduced 12 months ago (I hear both yes and no).
But the tax is between 0.1% and 5.5% of the land registry value
Before agreeing to 'split the costs' get the seller to tell you the tax.
Changing Flights At Kl Airport - Air Asia -

Thanks for the comments - I was going to have a 9 hour stay, which gave time to go into town. But Air Asia changed the Chiang Mai flight times.
Think I'll kill the time going over to the other terminal and back. Gives me something to do!
Tune hotel did look interesting, but I do like 'people watching' and there is not much of that in a hotel room.
