  1. going price in Pattaya is about 1% from the purchase price for this document (many property agents working with banks and/or money exchanges)
  2. new twist - my ec co-worker (JAP) tried to set up the voluntary monthly SSO contribution @ SSO Pattaya branch....they send him away as his name in his bank book was NOT written in Thai letters and as usual for non Thais in Latin...he went to his bank and they never heard about that request....lets see what"s next if he can provide an updated book? advised hin to call SSO headquarters in BKK to assit
  3. had the same issue....went to a UOB branch and they helped me to set up their APP and register my Citi CC......as I don"t need another bank account I could not set up payment for my staement.....I registered to UOB Thai Line account then 'Apply service" and "QR payment request" enter CC numer and receive QR code and able to pay via my banking APP....pain in the ass
  4. I was marrried to a Filipina and she got a spouse visa without anuy issue, I am on Non B visa type
  5. owning a pool villa (to live in) and a beachfront condo to rent out, making about 6% p/a fully rented for years and planing to use it for myself in old age, peace of mind and never regret it 🙂, I am in Pattaya If new in the market I advive using a trustful agent
  6. my current amount on SSO is 153,195 THB after about 15.5y contribution, so I can opt for the lump sum anytime after retire or (my plan) I can apply for mothly pension at the age from 55 if contributed at least 15 years to SSO, the amount is calculated as follows 20% out of 15,000 THB (caped max salary) = 3,000 THB/month (base pension) plus 1.5% per year contributed over 15 years, so in my case total 24 years (if working until 60) = 9y x 1 .5%=13.5% 33.5% out of 15K = 5,025 THB monthly pension (my goal is to retire with 55 in 2008, 19y = 4y x 1.5%=6%, total 26% from 15K= 3,900 THB/M) this is not affected by the 432 THB/M voluntary contribution to maintain SSO covergage Cheers J
  7. Hi, my social security number (working as employee here since 2008) is different than the number on my pink ID card (issued 2022) I am using the SSO connect app and have acces to all my details Planing to use article 39 voluntary insurance once retired and to receive monthly old pension benefits of about 5000 THB with 60y retire age or about 4,000 THB if I retire with 55y as well - hope all will go smoth..... Cheers
