  1. Hi

     

    What documents do i need to get residency certificate from nonthaburi IO? Im doing it for my 5 year driving license. At the moment i have 2 years but will expire in april.

     

    -tm30

    -house book

    -passport

    -work permit?

     

    Anything else?

     

    and what form should i fill in at the IO?

     

    Also i heard that it takes a week for free but you can get it right away for 500 baht. Is it true?

     

    Thanks

  2. for 1 year non-b multi you need to take it from your hometown (your country) Thai embassy. thats what i did.

     

    i dont know what do you mean by work permit time thing. if you have a work permit it is good up to your contract date or the letter from your company. 

     

    normally your visa and work permit go together. if i remember correctly for changwattana you need to do your work permit first and then visa. or otherwise. 

     

    PS: just a friendly reminder, at the work permit office the first thing they check is the tax papers. you better pay it before go

    He has big problems with his wife (she took all his money and treats him badly) and he wants to run away, without telling her, without divorce (divorce later).

    now.. first of all.. if its not very personal what kind of problems? legal things or only she got the money. or other things.. another thing is why he wants to run away?! again the reason. without divorce and divorce later.. your friend needs to know something: if they married in thailand and you mentioned officially married.. if one side doesnt want to divorce, they cannot divorce. the only way is he must go to the court if the wife doesnt want to divorce. and the court will take really long time around 2-3 years and most likely it will ended up wife favor. plus it will cost him.

     

    1) the answer is related to 'he wants to run away'. in thailand or out of thailand. if in thailand he must notify the immigration the same day he divorce showing the red divorce paper which he will get from amphue he divorced and there will be date on the red divorce certificate. well thats his last day in thailand if there are not any reason will give him visa to stay in. 

    2) he can keep his non-o and extension till he get divorced. but for the next extension the wife must go to the immigration so the way you explained the situation it seems the wife will not go... that means his next extension is in danger.

    3) if the situation is urgent i would suggest him to contact with an agency which can give him non-o retirement. then no problems. Actually if i were him i would go this way. so divorce or not he would get rid of the non-o marriage visa just in case for the future visa problems. 

     

    the way you describe the situation seems the wife will make lot of problems with the divorce too. He may try to talk to her and convince her without any lawyer. most likely he must tell her he forgive what she did, and accept to pay some money for some months to her. sign a contract and divorce. or just talk to her and convince her for a divorce as soon as possible. i had friends that wife threatened them that the wife will report him to the police talking bad about the king. and she arranged some fake witnesses too. then they sat and talked and agreed with a divorce around 50K payment to her.

    There are a couple of reasons why you should buy reolink - they aren’t a Chinese company, compared to Hikvision, Dahua and all the other rebranded cameras reolink are a lot better quality.

     

    There is a guy called The Hook Up on YouTube, I'm sure you have already researched him, he compares the different camera manufacturers. Buying a half decent reolink camera will give you so much more detail, but that all depends upon how much performance you want from your cameras. 
     

    Reolink seem to be compatible with other NVRs, and software like blue iris, where sometimes other companies fail. There is software like neolink, which will allow easy integration to home assistant and homebridge. Again, depends how far you want to go down the rabbit hole.
     

    I have used their cameras for a few years, recently I chose the mid priced reolink cameras - I bought them from Reolink aliexpress - official store, they arrived via China post / Thai post and didn’t incur any extra charges. 

    hmm good to know. thanks

    Still we do the TM30 everytime online after we arrive from Germany, because we do not want any trouble or even fines for my wife.

    We will rather not have a reason to visit immigration this time.

    Is it possible to do the TM30 in advance?

    i think the question here is.. why?

    it seems you are ok doing the TM30 by any options.. and also it sounds like you are ok with playing safe. so.. why dont you just come here and do it via immigration or mobile app? mobile app takes 5 mins to do.

    the way you describe things seems you already know where you will stay and so on.. so prepare yourself. you already know where the immigration is.. 

    just do it how it should be bro as you did before.. nothing to lose spending few hours in the immigration just for tm30

  6. i mean.. to be honest there are seriously really good cams in thailand too. which you can go and just buy... i dont know the reason why you want to use amazon. 

     

    i have 3 cams in my house. bought in thailand. allof them are 4k.. working great. why dont you just go and check some malls? if not just check some websites. if you want to know where i bought i can help. send me private msg i will give you the website i use. they are based in hua hin and farang owner.

    Silly thread from start to finish.

    I would be embarrassed. Such naive posts. 

    and another silly post from you. total non-sense which goes well with your many other posts.. such as accouraging bribing IO's too.

    and really interestingly chosen words too... 

    its again obvious a post from you just to say something or just to post.

     

    anyway i sold my house for 2.8 and got my 500K

    it was very easy process.. 

     

    you dont need to post anymore please.

    Initially, if I remember correctly, you planned on having a Thai friend purchase the house from your x-wife by "transferring" the mortgage from her to your friend. Since I'm sure you discovered this wasn't going to work and your friend would have to qualify for their own mortgage, I'm guessing that the person buying the house isn't the person you initially hoped would purchase it. I also assume that whoever is buying it now is paying in cash - 500K to you and 2.3mil baht to your x-wife.

     

    If all of this is correct, are you planning on renting the house from the new owner or are you planning on moving out? I thought your initial plan was to keep living in the house. Is that still your intention?

    hi

    yes, plan changed little bit. 

    now the buyer is someone my friends friend. He accepted to pay 500K cash and the rest to my ex and again cash. Im not sure but i think his job is like buy houses redo them and sell again but again im not sure. i dont care about that part.

    and again yes, the plan changed because of mortgage. The original planned buyer couldnt get that much.

     

    your question is really good one. My plan is first i will move to a rent. and not sure what to do in the future. im seeing a new girl for a while... if things goes well i may think again about buying a new house with her.

     

    you may ask why buy again. Well because i want to live in a house i can do whatever i want. plus a good rent house starts from 20K to 35K the house i want to rent is 25K.. if i buy a house in a muuban with swimming pool and gym i will pay half of 20-30K so why not. and dont forget that rental houses raise the rent every year. And i already talked with the lady im seeing and she accepted to pay half of it. so if i buy a house which is around 4mil. i will pay very little every month.

     

    again some people will say its not your house. This is not about whose name the house is but the FEELING. its not easy to explain. but thats how it is. 

     

  9. UPDATE 07/03/23 :

     

    i sold the house yesterday. My ex wife, me and the buyer will meet at the bank next week. She will tell the bank she wants to sell the house for 2.8 and then the buyer will pay me cash 500K and transfer the the rest of the money to my ex wife. Ex wife will close the mortgage. 

    then again we all will go to land office and do the name transfer. I agree with the buyer that we will pay it 50-50

     

    for some people keep saying there is nothing about me in this case. Well there is. and thats the point some of guys cannot understand. yes, house is on my ex-wife name. yes it is her mortgage. so these are true. BUT she gave me the full right of the house. So it is ME who decides about the house. yes, it sounds like a dangerous game but as i mentioned in my previous post there are some really good thai women there not always after your money. she is one of them. all she wants is me to hurry get rid of the mortgage. so as she gave me the full rights about the house IT's ME in this. 

     

    thanks for all comments and help. 

     

    PS: it took 1 month to sell the house. its 3 year full high quality furniture house. so probably it helped a lot.

    @DrJack54Thanks. The few times that I have seen any grief at CW L desks has always been marriage extensions. Seems the burdens are way too onerous. I really have never had any issues with retirement extension but live in fear (and hope for the best). ???? 

      

    ignore him. you dont need to wait for another post or report to make 1 extra copy dude.. seriously?!

    if they dont want they will give you back and you can use it next year...

    I would wait for a post regarding extension based on retirement at CW.

    The OP post was regarding extension based on marriage however that was not made clear. 

     

     

     

     

    i dont think need to wait for another post to make 1 extra copy for my documents... lol

    its not going to hurt me... plus if they dont want the 2nd copy then i can use it next year... 

     

    PS: this is thailand and we all know its full of surprises. Im also surprise someone go the IO without at least 1 extra copy of documents. And actually not go with some other extra paper work just in case. so you will carry a brown folder with full of paper 1 time in a year for you 1 year visa extension... whats the problem?!

    I used it in June of last year.

    I used PayPal and it was done within about a minute.

    i thought you cannot use paypal in thailand if its not a business account.

    i have a friend who teaches online to chinese students and now he cannot do anything with paypal because he hasnt got business account paypal. so thailand blocked him. and he already lost 20K baht last month. now hes looking for a new option. Also paypal is not transferring his money to his new what ever hes using.

     

    so can you still pay things or use paypal in such a way?

     

    thanks
