  1. I have never seen a slump test done in Thailand for any concrete pours. Always like water as you say! No strength whatsoever!
  2. Surprised Phuket has not sunk with this many daily arrivals!! ๐Ÿ˜„

    This is a Proof of Life document needed for UK pension payments.

    Hua Hin is 20THB so I am led to believe.

    I used my Bangkok Bank manageress to sign off mine the other week. But it is done with an accompanying letter signed and stamped as BB are not allowed to actually sign outside documents, if that makes any sense. I am also told that your local police station will sign it for 20THB.
  6. And it would be even better if they were fitted with either an exhaust brake or a retarder and trained in their use!!
  7. Last year, we were alerted that Kasikorn Bank (KBank) began issuing emails requesting compliance information under the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) and FATCA (for US citizens). It was predicted other Thai banks would follow suitโ€”and now, some expat clients of Bangkok Bank have received similar requests. We can be reassured that this is a standard procedure, in line with Thailandโ€™s commitment to global tax transparency regulations. Bangkok Bank is complying with CRS and FATCA regulations: For Americans: FATCA requires banks to report account details to US tax authorities. For Non-Americans: CRS ensures tax residency information is shared with international tax authorities to prevent tax evasion. This is not unique to you or your bankโ€”all Thai banks are required to implement these measures following Thailandโ€™s adoption of the CRS agreement in 2020. Under CRS rules, banks must: Confirm the tax residency of all account holders. Identify any connections to other countries for tax purposes. Share financial account details with local tax authorities, who may exchange this information internationally if needed. This ensures overseas income and assets are properly declared. While this may feel new in Thailand, itโ€™s a standard practice globally. Switching banks wonโ€™t avoid these requests, as compliance is mandatory across all Thai financial institutions.
  8. Had they got a Certificate of Residence??
  9. Should be interesting as I am flying Thai in June BKK-LHR-BKK Business Class for the first time in 5 years. Mainly because the timings suit me better this time and the price was very cheap in comparison. Booked at the right time! Been flying Emirates and this will be an interesting comparison!
  10. I may be complete stupid but can someone please explain to me how they know it has generated more than 270 billion THB?

  13. Well aware of that fact about what TTB stands for. I was just passing on my experience that you can still open fixed accounts on a retirement visa with Bangkok Bank!
  14. You will now need a CoR as well as passport with long term visa to open any account.
