  1. You would be better to use one that was accurate. In the example shown the 90th day and therefore the one when a report would be due is the 28th of June. Earliest date would be 14th so they got that right even with the incorrect day 90, so that calculation is wrong too. Final day is Saturday 5th so the calculation is correct but as Immigration is closed at the weekend it should show Monday the 7th. Like a lot on the internet, garbage. 1 day in March 30 in April 31 in May 28 in June Total = 90.
  2. You already asked this a few days ago. https://aseannow.com/topic/1355942-sso-coverage-applicable-for-managingdirectors-of-owned-company/#comment-19687955
  3. Don't believe what a "tax pimp" puts on the internet in an attempt to separate the gullible from their money.
  4. The exchange rate is but the fees aren't so it is feasible that a Swift or similar transfer works out cheaper. This is usually (only?) found in USD trades as it's the most commonly traded currency and bank spreads are tight. At the moment the spread on USD is 0.88% (spread of 0.3 baht on a mid-market rate of 34.25). For GBP the equivalent is 2.03% (0.9 on 44.49). Wise fees includes a percentage of the amount being transferred so if that %age is higher than the %age bank spread at some point Wise will lose out. Where exactly depends on the fixed Wise fee and the costs of the Swift transfer plus receiving bank fees plus any intermediary fees. The poster you quoted sent in USD and likely fell into this situation as they were talking about total costs and not just the exchange rate. Another poster did the calculations a while back and (for him) Swift was better above approx $20,000 USD IIRC.
  5. Not that it affects your state pension transfers as explained already, but that's the selling rate - what they will sell you GBP for - you want to look at the buying rate which is what they'll buy your GBP for and give you THB in exchange. The current rate for that is 43.5 with the sell rate still the 44.4 you saw earlier.
  6. The video is embedeed at the top of the page, or follow the link in the "Step for Submit the Thailand Arrival Card" box.
  7. New payment system? Mentioned here a few months ago alongside JamJang, another payment system for the gullible. https://aseannow.com/topic/1341777-jamjang-app-to-pay-by-scan-without-thai-bank-account-–-tried-it/#findComment-19336943
  8. A Border Pass is used for those from neighbouring countries like Laos, Cambodia who can enter Thailand for a period without a passport. I expect that's what is referrred to here.
  9. Your screenshot says differently so something isn't the same. For me your 2 steps are done in one press of a button, although I'm not using Aussie sources of funds so things may not be identical.
  10. Yours are funded from a Wise balance. I reckon AusdieMaus will be transferring from his home country bank.
  11. It's not an interest rate and it's not guaranteed.
