Strictly, your wife is incorrect. You need to pay Social Fund contributions to receive medical benefits at hospital. Social Fund contributions are normally paid by those who work for an employer and have a work permit. That being said maybe your local hospital is an outlier, and they offer the same benefits. Either way your wife is thinking of you and has your best interests at heart, so I would be tempted to give it a try.

Civil and Commercial Code Section 1476: You need the permission of your spouse to obtain a mortgage on immovable property. Without a spousal signature the bank will not lend because the debt would be unenforceable. However, now the gentleman in question has signed he is both jointly and severally liable for the debt as a result of Civil and Commercial Code Section 1490 (4). This isn't because he is a guarantor, it is because he is a co-signer with his wife. That being said he will only be in real trouble if he owns a condo unit in his own name, as that is an asset the bank can easily find if they need to. He might also want to keep significant sums of money in a different bank to that which holds his wife's mortgage, as he may have signed a Right to Set Off. This means if his wife doesn't pay the mortgage the bank can deduct the money owed from any of his accounts with the same bank. Not what you would want if you keep 800k set aside at the same bank for your retirement extension...

Each supplier sends a technician once a week to clean the lines used by their beer. They bring the cleaning solution and a small pressure vessel with them.

Proof of paid withholding tax in English
blackcab replied to Lorry's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I disagree with some of the above posters. Withholding tax absolutely is a tax paid by the OP, however it is collected and remitted to the Thai Revenue Department on his behalf by his bank. Withholding tax is money that belongs to the OP. It is remitted to the Revenue Department who hold the money on account until the end of the tax year. At this point, if the OP submits a PND91 the withheld tax will be credited against tax the OP owes. The issue with getting paper documentation of this from the Revenue Office is that his bank will submit a computerised ledger with all witholding tax amounts for all accounts, which runs into millions of lines of data. Further, the data will all be in Thai. Would a statement be good enough? It will show INT interest paid, then the following line will be WHT withholding tax? -
How to hire a rental agent from abroad
blackcab replied to Wuvu2's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
What part of the Thailand are your condos in? The first thing you will need is a strong contract with your agent, detailing who is responsible for what, and what/when the agent will get paid. You will also need a copy of their Thai ID card. To manage your condos the agent will need signed letters of authority, and signed copies of your passport. They may also need signed copies of the blue house book and the title deed, depending on what you may ask them to do. You will not need to get the documents notarised.- 1 reply

What is the N2 counter for Chaengwattana

Probably.

She can make online transfers up to 200k in one day, so 4 transactions of 49.9k each. She can also withdraw up to 50k from an ATM per day. 2 days and she will have the money as per your instructions. Quicker if she transacts the second day's withdrawals just after midnight. Alternatively, next time you are in your SCB branch with your bank book and passport, you can request an exemption from facial recognition which will be confirmed to you by SMS after a couple of days.

You have not stated whether this is a PEA installation or a private installation across your own land, or a mixture of both. The difference in cost could be massive.

@Kevin1908 Do you mean: 1. The PEA connecting to their supply and installing PEA poles and cables, ending up at a new PEA electricity meter outside the plot of land, or 2. Someone connecting to an existing meter at the edge of the plot of land and then installing poles and cables further inside the plot of land (perhaps to where you want to build a house)?
