  1. Sunday ,with markets closed is not the best time to compare fx quotes.
  2. Wu 1thb 0.0206 gbp Mid market Wise1thb 0.022 GBP BKB 1thb 0.02GBP Current fx rates Wise and BKB have high fees Wu 100thb Plus Wise cannot send Thai baht abroad.
  3. Theier partner bank is in the US,so subject to US banking timelines for processing, so if you place order for a transfer to AU on a Monday,the US bank will receive it on their Monday night,(Tuesday in AU)process and send next business day (Wednesday AU,so might turn up Wednesday or Thursday.
  4. All my transfers to AU have been same day,my Australian bank make funds available on their arrival,usually funds are available by 6 pm Thai time. The screen shot indicates only minutes for that sample transfer
  5. Some years back they guaranteed next day delivery accompanied with a fee increase. This worked fine for a while untill there was a bank holiday in the US ,transfer took 4 days,following that transfer,3 days became the norm. I have now used WU for 2 years for my transfers to Australia,same exchange rate fees 99 thb same day delivery if order placed early Screen shot WU.
  6. Agreed, my bank book usually shows a maximum of 6 transactions for the period of my previous extension even though I use monthly income method for immigration. On requesting bank letter and book update for immigration,my bank provides copies of these transactions as well as the account details page. For 100thb they provide a 12 month statement. Immigration at CW have no problems with my passbook,for my new extension.
  7. Ask at a Rd office if they will provide a retiree who is prohibited from working in Thailand with a tin. The answer they gave me was "we will not provide a TIN" Not needed.
  8. This info may help,I have been finding more Thai law firms supporting these views. Link www.thaiembassy.com
  9. IMO For openers; The Thai Finance dept was well aware of those using the deferred remits of international income as they had tax id numbers of all concerned. Secondly, the Sept 2023 modification to the tax code only closed that "loophole" which did not require any vast changes to tax collection procedures. So expats were never their target and is the reason behind the TRD refusing to issue Tax Identifier Numbers. Just my take on this issue.
  10. Just read an item about cost of living in Australia. Your looking at AUD 12 for one of these refreshers
  11. My forgettable shopping fail at 7/11many long years ago. While browsing with friend she suggested we can buy hot coffee,I agreed and made the first cup ,it was burning hot so I plucked a second cup from the dispenser to give better insulation against the extremely hot first cup . On seeing how hot it was my friend declined ,so off to the cashier, young lady said "cannot" after seeing the confusion on my face she added " Boss counts cups everyday" I can't recall leaving with a coffee
  12. Counterweight AKA "whispering death" as you never hear them coming. In some instances they can close on you at speeds in the region of 2000 feet per minute.
  13. 60000 baht assessable income @5%,if it happens,still makes for a cheap party
  14. The safety procedures to follow when working on a lift are the same procedures one should employ when using a Zebra crossing in Thailand
  15. As my application for a TIN from TRD was rejected I will continue to party.
  16. Agreed, the easy money KH refers to has been available to the RD for decades.
  17. From my visit to TRD office it's already shoved
  18. Similar yes,but in my case I was not required to show any documents as the officer advised that I do not need a TIN. The officer explained that as my income/assets were in my home country currency it would not be taxed only income derived from employment in Thailand would be assessable.
  19. Procedure No1 should be acquire a Tax Identifier Number from a Revenue Department office,as without it you cannot submit a return.
  20. I found Airpaz showed not only AA flights but AAX as well best for Suvarnabhumi departures/arrivals
  21. Sorry August 20 is 15 days before due date. I can report anytime within that window online (CW office)untill due date.
  22. Just for info,when I reported I was well past scheduled report date as per reminder email
