you started thread May and did not add one post. https://aseannow.com/topic/1359452-50-100k-eur-transfer/ Is it compulsory to write posts every day just to become an advanced member or something similar? I write when I need forum members' opinions and wisdom. Not just for fun. I believe my question was very clear. I'm aware of the options but not sure all will work once in Thailand. Thank you for the useful answers, now the options are clearer. All the best, Lusty

Dear All, I had had a retirement visa for 3 years during and after COVID, provided at the cost of 15.000 THB/year by an agency. They put 800.000 THB in my bank, I refunded after 1 hour, in a week it was ready. Then for 2 years I stopped, as I was in Thailand in and out for no more than 4-5 months in a year, often traveling to neighbouring countries. Now, with the new regulations, it may be wise to get a retirement visa again. My question is: is it possible to enter on a 60 days stamp in January and get the visa while in Thailand? Or, since I can meet all requirements about money, flights etc, would be better to apply at https://www.thaievisa.go.th/? I'm sure applying while in Thailand is less trouble and paperwork, expecially with the help of an agent. But if it's not allowed, then I'm screwed. Hence the question. Thank you or your attention, Lusty

Dear All, I have a few old Thai bank accounts from the time I was working with a WP in Bangkok. I kept them alive with some small transactions over the years. My status at the moment is "long term tourist", after a few years of Retirement Visa. I stopped the retirement visa as nowadays I spend less than 6 months in a year in Thailand, with frequent trips abroad (not visa runs) for pleasure. I'm about to inherit 100.000 EUR or so from my father's death. If I transfer these funds to my Bangkok Bank account, will they attract the unwanted attention of Thai Revenue Dept? And/or will they be taxed? I don't plan to buy anything with this money, just to keep it in Thailand and use it (hopefully) slowly. Thank you for your attention. Cheers, Rico
