Eliminate visa free travel for EU, USA, and others, a very simple and fair solution.

 

Mandatory home country criminal checks are also desperately needed.

Another clueless poster

be careful what you wish for

have you ever tried to obtain a CRO? 

I am from the UK and needed one for my work overseas

which I had to do every year,as soon as you get one for year one 

you need to apply straight away for year 2

and if you have no UK address good luck with that

they are an absolute nightmare to obtain

er excuse my ignorance,but why did people do border runs anyway?

I do my 90 days in Jomtien

Yes, A Muang

 

This week, sucks, between AQI 50-75 at the house.  IQair stating higher, but haven't a clue where they source their info, as state on site, no meter/contributor of theirs here.   Probably 'sat' info.

 

PM2.5 not a whole better, hence the sucks part.  20 ish last time I checked this afternoon.  windy.com is saying 17µg/m³ now.  

 

Indoors w/filters, no problem.  It was nice 10ish days ago, and I actually thought smog season was over, till this week.  Hopefully rain before the end of the month.

I have a paid account with Windy.com

the AQI reports including PM2.5 are only updated every few hours,

it is not in real time.

When I went there for my retirement extension recently I suffered a lot too waiting outside in the heat. There were some useless fans. Only if you stood directly in front of them they helped. But this wasn't possible because you had to queue. Dressed in my warm immigration outfit an unbearable situation.

 

But also some expats. My application took not even 2 minutes. But there are people that still didn't get the message that you have to copy all the pages with entries of the passport. People that didn't sign all documents at home already. That had missing documents. That... 

 

Regarding people saying that the bank documents need to be from the same day - I always do this a day before and never had a problem. And please copy all entries since the last application of your bank book and also the first page with your name.

 

Sadly I have to go there in 3 months again to show them that I kept the 800 k balance that long. They could check this at the next application.

I personally know of several of these in Pattaya.  Guys meet the girl online, get lots of attention promise marriage and buy a condo before they have even met.  It happens more then people think and I bet most feel so stupid and embarrassed you never hear about it.

Oooh Pattaya guys

haha

You are safe until the end of the lease even if the house is sold.

This is from SAMUIFORSALE  and THAI CONTRACTS 

Does transfer of ownership of the land affect my lease rights?

Transfer of ownership of the property does not break the lease agreement (section 569), but only rights and obligations in the lease agreement that are under Thai law considered by nature true rent of property rights transfer to the new owner. Some provisions in the lease, such as the common renewal option but also the succession clause, are in principle only enforceable by legal action against the original lessor. Death of the owner or transfer of ownership could lead to the lessee ending up with a lease contract that is only partly enforceable against the new owner who is for part of the lease considered a third party (i.e. not binding upon him as he is not considered a contract party).

Thanks for the reply guys

Hi 

I have a 12 month contract on my rented condo I have only been in 2 months and she wants to sell it.

Now my contract is with her if she does sell can the new owner throw me out

Not much use if you get what this guy got and the 80,000 quid fee is correct.

read my post properly,i have funds in the uk and a house.

i just hope you have been 100% truthful to your insurance company.

i suspect many expats will get a shock when they try to claim.

Wow what a great plan

thanks,it's a master plan

here is my take on self insurance

i have 25k GBP in a Bangkok bank account,which i never touch and use for my visa,(3 so far)

it will also double up as a self insurance policy should i need it.

no need to pay rip off insurance fees.

i also have money in the uk which i can use ,if need be

i am 63

 I only care about what's happening here. If things could be headed off before they explode here then I would be happy, but as a long range planner and someone whose primary job was to expect the unexpected then I see things in a different view than others and it makes me suspicious when I don't see a 100% effort given to shut the loop holes. 

Hope you don't use Primavera lol

Pattaya

Where is the best hospital to go to,gor a general health package?
