The Aura residence right next door to the Avalon would let you check in before noon, I checked in 8:00am, put my stuff i my room and walked 15 minutes to the consulate plus way nicer rooms for an extra 100 bht.

Ha...!

They let me check in 2 days before my booking, I did my visa, then I was back in Thailand an hour and a half before I left...!

A friend of mine went today and he said almost empty. A 10 min affair and he was done.

You think that's good?

I went today and had my visa 25 minutes before I actually arrived at the embassy...

Then you're not soaking properly.

Soak overnight in an oxygen based soaker added to the recommended ratio.

No need to rinse before adding normal washing powder/liquid when you wash in the morning. Wash and rinse as normal.

No smells, guaranteed.

My yearly retirement extension takes me well under one hour to obtain and costs me just 2000B (including photos and photocopies). It is nothing even remotely like a hassle. In fact I would say that a normal weekly trip to the supermarket is much more of a hassle and takes longer.

Need to add 3900 for a multi-use re-entry permit.

Yes, still cheap compared to TE, IMHO.

The only difference is that you would only need 1 million baht of registered capital. And dependent upon where you apply for the work permit only 2 Thai employees instead of 4.

Or a sole proprietorship registered at the local Or Bor Tor may be OK.

i.e. local partner as proprietor employing foreign partner as manager

To get a work permit you need to be formally employed by a company legally operating in Thailand. You and your wife could set up in business together, but the work you can do must be approved by labour office issuing the work permit.

 

Doesn't have to be a company, just a business registered with the Or Bor Tor under local partner's name.

You're fooling yourself, Bruno, and perhaps a few others equally as ignorant...

Remember when mobile phones first started getting popular...all the hoo- har about  they would fry your brain and cause unborn babies damage...no one wanted a transmitter near their house...now "everyone"

carries a phone around with them are we dead yet ?

Ah, but people are dying all the time...!

So if I want to buy gold, it's quite safe to go into any well established gold shop and buy an ingot?

That is, I can be reasonably sure that I'll get the correct weight, purity, etc?

Never bought it, but keep reasonably appraised of the market because I invest in gold mining companies.

TIA

500 baht on a bus can go a long way - far too generous but up to you.......

500 Baht for a bus??

 

There are buses almost everywhere in Bangkok for under 20 Baht!!

What a stupid answer, Ronnie.

He clearly wanted to get the bus back to Scandinavia, and that's a lot more than 20 baht!!

Maybe even more than 500...??

He clearly needs a GoFundMe page...

We can do it for only 2500... plus VAT.

Nice try but in Thailand shamanic services are not subject to VAT.

 

Ok, ok... 2400 plus 10% service charge.

It said "ATM cards" on the outside of the envelope?  Story over.  Why is anyone responding to this post with this fact in mind??  

That is a very good point.

So... why did you respond?

How long do you think I should wait until I ring them?

Wait another 10 or 15 minutes and then give it a go.

You never know...

Sorry to hear what happened but at least they let you hold onto your phone. Can't think of many plaves that would allow that?

Of  course they did...
