If you are marrying a Burmese lady in Burma, do you need a Certificate of No Impediment from the British Embassy in Burma?

Or are you absolutely certain a Certificate of No Impediment from the British Embassy in Thailand will be accepted?

1. The license to import and to sell food comes from the FDA.

2. Not for the importation, other than standard items such as a commercial invoice, etc. You may be asked for some documents for the FDA approval to sell, such as a list of ingredients.

I would go see her, and get all of your accounts. Everything. Politely tell her that if you get all the documents from her you will walk away and that will be the end of it. 

Prepare to pay taxes, penalties and interest when your new accountant goes through things.

Just to add... An import license allows you to import and store food in approved premises.

To sell the food you need separate FDA approval for each product, and each product must comply with labelling regulations.

Really, you need to apply for your product and packaging approvals before you worry about warehousing, storage and import licenses.

I think you might need to check your year end has been audited and filed correctly.

Audit fees can be substantial, and all it would take would be a quick photocopy and a fake signature. Just saying.

Change your accountant. Be aware that she has your accounts for this year and last year, and also it is getting near the time when your annual accounts need to be finished and certified.

Part on amicable terms and be absolutely sure to get your previous accounts.

Yes. A license to import food is required from the FDA. The license is renewable every 3 years.

Villa has Prado absinthe 700ml for 1,345 baht.

As you are applying for citizenship, I strongly suggest you get all of the application documents pre-checked and accepted by immigration before you finalise any move.

Thai passport for daughter - can she have dual UK/Thai?

Yes.

Genuine question, but is there anything for bees to eat in Bangkok? I don't see many flowers growing in Bangkok.

If all else fails Villa sells honey, although I am sure there will be other shops selling similar products.

So a young, single millionaire's daughter comes with a 10 million baht dowry.

Does this mean older, divorced women with children should be paying their future husband 50-100 million?

Sinsot is officially finished. You heard it here.

Yes I do this all the time. Absolutely no problem at all.

The only thing is don't freeze milk in cardboard cartons. The milk tastes of cardboard when it is defrosted.

Plastic bottles = you can't tell the milk has been defrosted.

How about a Certificate of Residency from Immigration?  I understand that is a requirement?  

Not if you have a work permit, which the OP mentioned.

So firstly, you would do better to renew your licenses just after they expire. Your license is granted for the fixed period plus any remaining days until your next birthday. This means if you renew 1 day after your license expires you will get an additional 364 days. 2 days late and you get 363 days, etc. Don't leave it too long though as there is a definite number of days after which it will expire for good.

If you have a car and also a bike license you will need:

Your passport (and 2 copies)

Your work permit (and 2 copies)

A medical certificate (I was asked for this when I renewed) and 1 copy

Your 2 expired licenses

That's all I seem to recall being asked for. You will need to complete 2 application forms - if you don't speak or write Thai it's always easier to take someone along who does. If you have a 1 year extension of stay you should be able to get a 5 year license this time, which is a convenient thing to have.

You know the drill though - if you have any other original bits of paper they might ask for then take them along as well. There is a photocopy service in the building where you can always get something photocopied.

Once you have the affirmation from the Embassy, you can give it to a translation company to translate. They will get the translation legalised at the MFA and then post everything to you EMS.

Or you can run around town and do it yourself.

Sometimes though Thai's who want to buy and sell condos quickly to anybody...

You mean if they want to sell to a non-Thai person. A Thai person would not buy a condo owned by a company.

The only exception would be property trading/development, but believe me, you have to be pretty special to make a living doing that because the majority of property takes a considerable time to sell. 

As has been stated, the fact that a company owns the condo is irrelevant. Your wife is just buying an asset of the company.

The current owner probably wants to sell the company structure along with the condo, because otherwise they will be left with an empty company they still have to submit accounts on or they have to pay to close.

The thing is a Thai citizen would almost never buy a company that owns a property in this manner. Why would a Thai citizen pay an accountant every month to file accounts when they have the absolute right to own the property in their own name, hassle free?

Politely explain you will buy the condo, but you are not interested in the company. If the seller won't agree then walk away. There are condos for sale literally everywhere, and both you and the seller know it.
