It is not possible now,cos. he must face with very serious offences and charges first .

As far as I know , price is 20 K.Check in many dental clinic all around Pattaya.

Not misread.Only some EU countries have 30 days free visa with strict rules.Not all.Russia,China 90 days!!!It is not the same,right?

It is very strange that russians have free visa and EU citizens not???Government prefer russians,chinese than EU,USA,UK,AUSTRALIA,CANADA people???

36m2 is pretty good place to live for us.This is our condo near the beach with balkony as well,large swimming pool,jim .And I am owner with yellow Tabien Baan.We have 10 BHT bus near by and can reach anywhere in Pattaya very easy.Sometime we use our motorcycle .Kitchen is separate ,so no any smell. For me is much better solution to have condo than rent .Besides,Wongamat is maybe the best place to live in Pattaya.

I own condo 36 m2 near the beach.I live with Thai wife which cook food every day.We have motorcycle and bycicle .About 5-6 time per month and we eat in restaurants,mostly in Terminal 21.Monthly cost does not exceed 45000 BHT per month.Average 35-40.000 BHT.We have a pool,jim and we are close 400 m. to the wonderful beach in Wongamat.My monthly income-pension is about 65000 BHT.You can rent nice studio in a good location for about 4000-6000 THB per month.

So if I understand correct,if I gave to my Thai wife every month 10.000 BHT -transfer to her from my bank account (gift in a fact),I will be excluded to pay income tax on 120.000 BHT per year ????

Use an agent?For what?Waiste of money for a very simple move ,right?You can do it yourself very fast .

I have Thai wife and she like to cook every day ,mostly Thai food .We have condo and motorcycle .Living near the sea.We buy groceries in 2 big markets in Bang Lamung and mostly Tesco-lotus.So,yes 20-25 K per month is OK and we can live on that budget easy and with good quality of life.On average we spend more per month ,about 40-50 K .,but it is possible for us (2 people) to live with 20-25K(which we used to in covid times).

Yes at the moment cap. gains are tax exempt "if any".Just check out SET performance in a last few years.It is very bad and it is very hard to have any profit here.And trade here on stock-market is pretty costly as well.I am out of this market for about 3-4 months and it was good decision.You can check out trading data and how much is sell off for foreigner investors in a last few months.Besides we are only protected in Thai banks to amount 1 million BHT per account and interest rates are very poor.In EU banks I have about 3% interest on EUR per 6 months .So that makes me clear with this "tax change policy" that is much better to have money abroad.

Thailand is still too far for from pre-covid tourist numbers(40-45 million).Economy is recover very slow,maybe among the worst economies in South west asia.Too much dependent to China which is in big problems as well.Currency is very volatile .Debt rates with common people are very high,etc.Thailand is not favorite destination anymore for many expats.Many expats are here cos tax policy,but from 2024 everything will change for many of us.I decided not to invest more in Thailand.I have small condo bought before and I can stay there when I am here.I can not accept to pay double tax.I love this country and I have Thai wife and I will live here for maybe less than 6 months for a year and remitt not more than 40 K BHT per month(65 y.old).

Very true!

Maybe you are real estate agent or maybe that is "an exeption to the rule",but change in tax policy matters .Anyone can see prices of the construction thai com. and develppers on SET plunge pretty much recently,same as REITS(even more). We will see further development,but without foreigners in the market ,prices can go down more,from my point of view.I hope that Government will exclude money for buy condo from abroad for taxation clearly .

For over 65 s is 190k ,60k for Thai spouse and this is deductable for tax (and maybe 60K for tax payer).So 250-310 k. is exemt for tax.-plus 150K(tax 0) is 400-460 k.
