Go for it. One-off experience. Don't get too deep.

This guy....

Thai media and Thai journalists. Completely in the back pocket of the Thai government. Not in letter or in law but completely in spirit. They wouldn't dare try to change it.

Thank you. Very helpful.

Any ideas on good RMFs at the moment? Or is it all a major risk??

And are there major risks that you can actually lose your investments?

thank you.

This is Thailand matey.

Hello. I recently started a new job for a BOI firm in BKK. 

Thing is, there is no RMF or similar provisions.

I want to start an RMF account - but don't know where to start.

Any suggestions or advice? I've SCB do the RMF, but can expats invest in this? How does one go about opening such an account?

Any advice would be great. Thank you.

I wouldn't worry too much. Look at China. They're limping back to normal after 3 months of draconian measures. Yea, yea, I get they lie but their factories are opening which is visible to the naked eye. And, forget which business paper, I saw their output numbers were surprisingly good given the shutdown, which indicates a fast bounce back, a good portent for other economies.

 

So, I would say a couple more months, give or take, and most countries will have flattened the curve to the point that they say X infection/death rate is tolerable and go about business as usual.

 

Sure there will still be hotspots popping up here and there but as long as the general population curve is flat enough, hospitals will be able to cope with localized events.

 

In any case, I am learning to eat drink and be merry within exactly 67 sq. m.

 

 

 

 

One of the most sensible quotes in this thread.

I have experience in this. It is tolerated, yes.
But the authorities are slowly closing in.
They are gradually getting wise to the “working online” community. 

Thank you.

Then why is my BOI company saying I must have a NON B!
It’s so frustrating. Don’t want to leave Thailand right now to get a Non B. 

Where can I call to prove to my BOI firm that I don’t need NON B???

Hello. So I have been offered a job at a BOI company.

Immigration at CW told me today that I can get a work permit with a Non-IMM O (marriage) visa.
 

The officer said I don’t need to leave Thailand to get a Non-IMM B visa. Can use Non-IMM O.

Is this correct? Can I (and my BOI firm) get a work permit with a BOI company with a Non-IMM O Visa?

thank you so much for any advice.

I also need a non-o, thinking of going to Yangon. So your info is useful.

Are you a UK national? I am too - no worries getting in and out? 

Hello.

I need to get a non imm b visa quickly (ie, next few days). Bad timing, I know, what with the virus.

But please can anyone give me some definitive answer as to whether Laos and the Thai embassy in Vientiane are open for visa runs?

I am from the U.K. and have not recently travelled to or transited in any high risk countries as classified by the Thai government. 

Thank you so much for any advice.

ubonjoe, I will be heading for Vientiane for a non-imm b visa. I am a UK national. I have never been to Vientiane for this visa.

Do you think it will be OK to get the non-imm b visa at Vientiane?

Thank you.

Just a reflection of the wider government and so-called 'elites'. No surprises here.

Hello. I will need to obtain a Non-Imm B visa next week.

Thinking of driving to Nong Khai and then travelling to Vientiane to get the visa.

Thinking this might be best option to avoid Covid-19 etc.

Any TV members have very recent experience of the Vientiane visa-run?

What's the situation? All normal?

Thank you for any responses.

I need to get a Non-Imm Business visa in the next couple of weeks.

Thinking a road trip to Nong Khai and then visa from Vientiane might be best.
