When i have had a rejection, the email states what was wrong ie a missing field or not matching info, this is at CW Bangkok

here is a snap shot of which countries most immigrants to ul came from In the YE June 2023, the top five non-EU nationalities for immigration flows into the UK were: Indian (253,000), Nigerian (141,000), Chinese (89,000), Pakistani (55,000) and Ukrainian (35,000). Taken from here https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/internationalmigration/bulletins/longterminternationalmigrationprovisional/yearendingjune2023#:~:text=1.-,Main points,) and British (84%2C000).

The Russians are never going to allow the US AND EUROPE to install their nuclear missiles on its border any more than the US would allow Russia to put missiles in Mexico OR Cuba, as for Ukraine t is already game over, the don't have a an army they are mostly dead, the airforce was wiped out long ago, what happened to the awesome patriot missile system that was going to protect Kiev the Russians dealt with it, the Russians hold land in Ukraine that is held by a Russian speaking population that is also ethnically Russian, as for invade Europe why would Putin be bothered, America is pulling out fast the Israel crisis has given them the chance to cut their losses and get out like Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya etc etc Remember the US and its allies are prepared to fight til the last Ukrainian (sadly)

Sent mine by DHL about 1200 baht was delivered within 48 hours

Yes and/or they are getting confused with an OA visa where the money is kept in your home country, The MFA (ministry of foreign affairs) are responsible for embassies/ consulates, and their info updated 2022 shows https://consular.mfa.go.th/th/content/80939-non-–-immigrant-visa-“o-x”-(long-stay-10-years)?page=5d68c88b15e39c160c0081e5&menu=5d68c88b15e39c160c0081e6 I would hate for the OP to pay 600 aud, which is not refundable if rejected

Would be good to know if you get it via Sydney, if you transfer to Thailand you would be lucky to get 1% on it.

Just had a look at the Sydney website the first thing that is wrong is it sats the visa is a 5 year visa, It is not it is a 10 year visa but given in 2 x 5 year blocls the same as the LTR visa and elite visa(or whatever it is called)) i will start my 2nd 5 year block next year

I wonder if they are correct embassies and consulates can have the wrong info I have on 0X visa although not from Sydney and i did my yearly report they checked my bank account and they required a letter from my bank confirming the amount held and that had to be dated they day of document inspection

You need the insurance every year, and you are supposed to report to immigration every year for a check on the insurance bank account etc

The money must be held in a Thai bank account, and you need to show the money was transferred from abroad

The OX visa is a 10 year visa (but given as 5+5 years) requires the 3 million baht money in a Thai bank account, also the insurance needs to come from an approved thai insurer see here https://longstay.tgia.org/

I saw this ar Bumrungrad hospital, i have no experience of it nor no one that has https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/health-blog/november-2021/water-vapor-therapy https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/conditions/bph-benign-prostatic-hyperplasia

Try The Accidental Butcher, Paelo Robbie, Villa might do it

My Toyota 1000km check was mandatory to keep the warranty in force and they did change the oil as well, the labour charge was free but had pay for the oil, this was 18 months ago

You will not get a certificate of residence at Bangkok immigration without a 90 day report (tm47), a TM30 should be done by your landlord or hotel. by its self it is not enough for a residents certificate

Log into your gateway account check the amounts are correct check your tax code, you should not need to do anything(as both pensions are taxed via paye), if the amounts shown are wrong you can amend them online.

I can totally believe this, my experience was not as bad as yours, but unnecessary work carried out. it seems money beats ethics

I had a policy tied to my visa had it 3 years no claims, then due to an accident i tried to claim on the out patient part of the insurance, they turned it down as i had not informed them within 24 hours, the doctor i saw actually phoned them and they relented my total claim was for about 15000 baht, at renewal my premium jumped from around 30000 to 88000 baht, then the hospital contacted me and said the insurer wanted to see all my medical records, i had had the policy 3 years i gave full disclosure at the time, so 3 years after i had taken out the policy i had one of those full checkups at the hospital they did not find anything of significance, i then had a letter from the insurance adding a whole lot of exclusions for things i do not have, if it is for your Thai wife have a look at FWD.

The only place i can find any info in english is this from a Phuket newspaper https://www.thephuketnews.com/landlords-hotel-managers-urged-to-re-register-for-online-tm30-reporting-89577.php

Yes the email stated she needs to file a new TM30, the e mail gave the new address.

My landlord stated she had an email from immigration saying she had to re register on the new site/

Best 2 places i have found are the Londoner or Scruffy Murphy's never seen Turkey outside Christmas or thanksgiving

Even with a no medical check needed he will need to declare his lung condition and the fact that he had a medical check, failure to declare this will invalidate his insurance and beware the fact he had a full medical check up, he may well find that a Thai insurer will refuse to pay up anyway as they can say you must have had an pre existing issue because you went for a checkup, In simple i would stay away from any Thai insurer there is no appeal against an insurer or ombudsmen to complain to, get insurance from your home country that has adequate complaints procedure

Your bank will certainly know how much money has come from abroad

The bread in Makro Big C etc is all made for Thai tastes, packed with sugar, salt and who knows what else, i tried it but no way, made my own for a while but found a bakery that does a decent loaf, unfortunately it is in Bangkok
