Have you considered changing the wife? You could always import...

So in Norway, a person that comes to retire, doesn't learn the language and the culture, use all public facilities with the only contribution is his pension money coming in to support himself is automatically on the path to citizenship? I think not, but I'm not going to Google it as I have no desire to retire in Norway.

1.There's a proper pathway to citizenship in Thailand as well. It's not simple, not so easy, but there is. You have to accept and understand that Thailand is not an immigrant country by choice, and seeing what happens in Europe it is understandable. 2. There is such a thing as tax resident in every country, it in most countries AFAIK. it has nothing to do with immigrant residence. Here in Thailand, up until about 30 years ago anyone (tourists included) who stayed in Thailand for more than 180 days in a calendar year had to go to the tax department, declare income and pay tax. The "income" for tourists was calculated by the amount they declared spending in the country. 3. Most Western countries tax their citizens\permanent residents for money earned out of the country. In case of double taxation agreements they charge the balance between what was paid in the country of earning to the amount that would have been charged in country. Most people manage to avoid it by not declaring the out of country earnings. 4. The USA IRS tax Americans and green card holders on everything in and out of country. I understand the difference, I hope you do too

Is that how it works in your home country?

You should test then. AFAIK you have to register your phone number with the back before you can use the app. Also, as someone already mentioned there's facial recognition for big transactions. I used both personal and biz apps of kbank. With the biz app you have to log in using the data every couple of months in order to enable wi-fi transfers to accounts not on your favourite list

You could use your home country DL just the same as long as there's a pic and it's in English

Yes, but it's not part of the requirements for a sale and has nothing to do with the process. A new book can be issued to replace a list one of needed

It's not, and those (as many other USA involvement in souvereign countries) is wrong, and usually never ends the way the US thought it will

If you no longer live here what do you need a local DL for? You can use your home country DL and international permit

Got married and took his husband's name? On a serious note - there must be a paper trail of the name change. If I was in his shoes I'd bring with me the official paper trail, give the IO both passports with the old one opened to show the re-entry permit and all other relevant documents. This should suffice for the IO to give the correct stamp, maybe with a supervisor consent. If not, he should go to immigratin and try having them rectify the problem

Just wait till his boss finds out how he himself can make big money out of it and it will be all legal. They'll probably make complicated rules and laws as to who can grow\sell - rules that only the boss can comply with, and then it'll be ok

No, it wouldn't. What would be amazing is if they provided a solution for garbage and agricultural waste, then educate, and only then ban and fine the burners. Same as with child labour and prostitution - you can ban it all you want, but without giving an alternative it will go on as usual.

Thai citizens and permanent residents MUST be registered in a blue book. Non Thai\non residents have the option to be registered in a yellow book that is issued based on the blue book of the unit.

Nothing to do with selling\buying a condo or a house. The blue book is simply a form of registration of address

The only issue I see is that if you get the 6-10 months payment promotion is that you have a local cc, and that means you're here on long term permit such as for work or marriage or maybe even PR. All those are not entitled for the vat refund AFAIK.

I'm pretty sure they want to see the 40k in HER account in Poland, not in your account here. I only issued a "sponsor" letter once, was more of an invitation letter saying the applicant wishes to travel to Thailand and will stay with me. Nothing was said about sponsoring the guest nor any evidence of finance from my side. It was for a normal TV, not e-visa.

Had a case like that over 10 years ago. The tenant stopped paying rent claiming they can't go out due to the massive flooding in BKK. After a couple of months that the agent couldn't get the money for me we set an appointment with the tenant at the agent's office. He never showed up, so after over an hour of waiting the agent and I went up to the unit to find it in a shocking state of abuse and pretty much all of the tenants belongings gone. Luckily they left a couple of things behind, one of which brought suspicions of illegal activity, so I told the agent to call him and tell him he's got 1 day to show up and pay the rent, or I'm going to the police. I also changed the lock right there and then so he couldn't get in. He called the agent (probably after trying to go in later that day) and begged to get his things back promising he'll pay later. Eventually he came, paid the rent owed, took his things and left

I think that the whole idea of hooters is real women with real breasts, it at least that's how it should be....

I think it must be something like that. Last month I got an SMS from my credit card bank that an attempt was made to charge the card (this 1 is not in regular use and hardly ever online) but they put a song expiration date so the transaction didn't go through. There were actually 2 attempts within about 10 minutes. I called the bank and they said it was online transaction. I asked to replace the card so the original was instantly cancelled and I got a new one in the mail 3 days later...

After being exposed to a very loud noise Manny years ago my ear started "ringing". When I was checked at a hospital I was told that the eardrum was damaged, although very minor damage. It took a while to recover, but there is a loss of hearing (certain frequencies) and the "ringing" never stopped. I was told by the doctors that since the nerve was damaged, there's nothing they can do to stop it. It was very difficult to fall asleep in the first few month, but after a while I kinda "got used" to it and most of the times I don't notice it. Of course now that I'm writing about it the ringing is louder than usual, but it will fade later...

Kong Fu? There's 1 attempt of a kick and show off hands.... But what's more strange is that the girls started filming the guy before he ran into that shop. And how come in all that time he was there no one came out from the shop to have a look at what happened?

Oops, I'm sorry, you're correct. Ireland is not a Schengen member. My bad

Hey! It was me who bought it. I demand the balance between what I paid and the real price!!!

I never applied for an Irish visa, but have applied many times to other European countries. Assuming you're all about a visa for a Thai national, it makes a difference the nationality of the other person and the relationship of the 2. If you are the other person, you are a citizen of a European country and you are married to the Thai person, it will be much easier to apply at your own Embassy as you won't have to show financial proof nor a hotel reservation. You still might have to show flights reservations which can be booked by a travel agency without issuing the ticket so the booking can later be cancelled. Once you get the Schengen visa you can travel to any of the Schengen countries. If you are not a European or not married to the Thai person you'll probably have to show a hotel reservation for the full duration of your visit (can book through any of the booking website, look for a hotel that you only have to pay for upon arrival and that you can cancel the reservation without penalty). On both cases the Thai person will need a medical insurance and the embassy would give you a list of insurance companies acceptable by them.

That's if he was ever in a prison's cell.....
