Ubon Joe, thanks for your advice

Is is possible to change from Guardian extension to Retirement extension without leaving country. Situation is that child is finishing school in June 2023. Currently child is on Education extension to visa and parent on Guardian extension. Both extensions expire at end of school term. The parent is USA citizen and meets all requirements of retirement, ie age, money in bank etc. Can this be done without leaving the country or must a new non o visa be sought and reenter the country on that. Thanks for feedback

Thanks for the advice. Re the online video that you refer to, is this new and mandatory? Ie in the last 2 years. I guess that there is a one month delay once I apply.

What is the situation at DMV with getting appointment for renewing 2 year to 5 year licence in Bangkok. Do you have to make an appointment and how is that done, in person or online or can you just turn up (with all paperwork) and go through the process. Thanks

Kwasaki, thanks for your feedback, it is appreciated. He has basic compulsory insurance with the tax which he has just paid but looking for something more 'comprehensive' as its value is over 100k baht. Seedy, I would not be asking if the bike is not road legal. I have no intention of wasting the forum members time with flippant requests or comments. Bike has range of 120km on single charge and top speed of 90km/h. It surprises me that Thailand claims to want to go electric reduce pollution etc but my colleague has replies from 15 insurance companies and all state that they do not provide coverage.

Can anyone recommend an insurance company / broker that will insure a Niu Electric motorbike. My colleague has contacted numerous ones including Roojai, Mr Prakan, etc etc and they all say no. Many thanks for any suggestions

Thanks for your responses, I will pass on your feedback.

A colleague (yes, seriously) has bought an apt with the view to renting it out as opposed to living there. Please no comments about the timing or sense of doing that:) He lives in a different town to where he purchased and his landlord does the TM30's for him as required. Now that he is a landlord, he will have to register in the wonderful system that he is landlord of new property and undertake TM30's if he ever rents the apartment out. Will the wonderful system get confused between him as a tenant in one apartment and a landlord in another when he registers as landlord? Will his personal TM30 details automatically get updated to living in his newly acquired apartment? Any experience or useful feedback as to the best way he should approach this, ie online or visit immigration is aporeciated. Thanking you in advance
