Laridae Hoogivzafuchs?

We “pollard” our Eucalyptus trees every 2 years approx.

I do have a TIN number, but I haven’t used it in 12 years. It’s not my intention to resurrect that, or to start filing tax returns, but I will be a little bit circumspect about how I bring money into the country. The biggest issue for me is how I sell my bitcoin without incurring tax liability here

GB googley bits?

They usually recommend something but not necessarily the best package for you.

A Firebird !

if we stick to registration data, we won’t go far wrong. We can’t really accurately talk about Sales, we can talk about bookings at motor shows, etc., but that is nonsense as well.

Nothing good happens after midnight and 5:30am sounds like “Handbags at dawn”.

Sales figures are useless and inaccurate, they are totally open to manipulation by anyone who reports them. The only figures we can realistically and accurately use are registrations, they are accurate though any interpretation towards the month of sale is tenuous at best. I suggest you stop banging on about sales, and let’s work with the registration data.

It’s like getting blood out of a stone finding different packages. in the UK, you can ask them to look at your usage and recommend the best package, and they are legally bound to do that, I’ve tried that here and it doesn’t work.

We’ve been over this. This month's registrations are a lot of last month's sales and some of this month’s sales. They are the only statistics we can realistically use.

Two swallows did not a summer make. As the actress said to the bishop.

And you kill or maim someone and get locked up until you pay the compensation, and if you didn’t kill them, you could be paying for the rest of their life.

I am sure Mike will answer, but this my take. Income is only taxable when you bring it here. When you send money from overseas to a third party, the tax liabilities are defined for you in the remitting country and the recipient in the receiving country. You have to send it direct to the recipient and not via your Thai bank account. You must gain no benefit from it here.

You are correct, but the condominium act does not contain any such clause, so it is down to the condo rules, and I’ve seen lots of different condos sets of rules, but I have never seen one that says owners must provide the details of tenants, the sensible thing to do is to try passing a resolution changing that by AGM or EGM, and to make absolutely certain it happens, specify the penalty if it doesn’t, otherwise you’re in a toothless position again.

Yes I missed that, British licence has to be valid to drive here. My UK licence expired donkeys years ago and I use my Thai licence to hire a car in the UK.

Thailand has a treaty with many countries for the mutual acceptance of driving licences as stated in the 1949 Geneva Convention on Road Traffic or the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Traffic You can legally drive on your British license at least six months, it may be longer. If you’re still in the country after that time, you must have a Thai license. However, don’t expect plod Somchai to know and you are likely to get fined although you are insured if you have insurance.

Did you ever finish your education or was kindergarten as far as you got?

You can thank Putin for your profit boost.

The JPM wouldn’t risk doing that without knowing for a certainty the tenant has a lease for less than 30 days. It’s illegal but so are short leases. He would be foolish to show any lease shorter than that, she can ask for it, but he can refuse to show it. The only way you can do short leases legally, is by giving your tenant a 30 day lease and telling him that you won’t object to him breaking it early. By far the best way for a condo to handle short leases is to pass a resolution at an AGM/EGM specifying that all leases are subject to a (say) 5,000 baht charge to the maintenance or sinking fund to cover extra wear and tear, plus 15% interest pa if unpaid. This makes it uneconomic for an owner to offer short leases and is not so much an issue on a 12 month lease. You can then prevent the sale of the unit until it’s paid with interest years later.

Both illegal without a court order.

You are hilarious, you’re wasted working in the oil industry.

He could well be renting under 30 days and if the JPM/other co-owners suspect that, they will get to the bottom of it not least by hounding his tenants. The JPM can ask to see his lease and if it’s under 30 days he would be very foolish to show it. It is illegal to rent to tenants under 30 days, but it’s not the condominium act. To do that legally they have to have a one month lease and break early. The JPM can only do their job properly with good interpersonal skills as the role is mostly toothless.

They are usually fairly identical for each condo building, most condos start with a boiler plate condo rules and add, modify or remove a clause, for example, pets, etc. or where you have to put garbage and so on. They are called the condo rules, a copy of which is lodged at the Land office, they are legally binding, sometimes the Land office will get involved if there is a dispute, but more normally it has to go to the courts. They can only be changed by an AGM or EGM, every condo owner should have a copy of his condo rules and if he hasn’t he can get it from the JPM. The JPM cannot amend them on her own. I have never seen a rule in there that says an owner must provide the details of his tenant, Airbnb is a new phenomenon and nobody thought about it before.

Can’t argue with price of Celery, cheap cheap motoring and a great little town car.
