  1. Link is to an article about cars. 😕
  2. Figures are in GBP but this table indicates otherwise. https://www.almondfinancial.co.uk/pension-breakeven-index-how-does-the-uk-state-pension-compare-to-the-rest-of-europe/ Greece in Southern Europe and Finland in the North are the only ones outside the Eastern bloc.
  3. One thing not taken into account which may affect things is that many UK pensioners using pension drawdown will be taking part of their monthly income from the tax free allowance of 25%. This will reduce the UK income tax they pay and depending on the amount taken like this may or may not push them into the position where they will owe tax to Thailand.
  4. Desktop view. I'm using Firefox.
  5. I mainly agree, but some offices do the 90 day report when you get an extension, and this poster specifically says that his 90 day report was done when he went to pick up his extension.
  6. If your extension runs until April 5th 2025 you must have renewed it either on or before April 5th this year which is ~ 118 days ago.
  7. It must all be a hoax - the 60 day thing and the removal of the limits. The UK has just updated their travel to Thailand advice and it now contains this:
  8. Easy to find a ticket that price if you fancy a night out in Hawaii this weekend.
  9. It was described in The Thaiger as temporary when it was at the sign-off stage (although I can't vouch for their accuracy). https://thethaiger.com/news/national/tourists-from-93-countries-can-now-come-to-thailand-visa-free
  10. A bit laborious to set up but seems to work. You're actually opting in to what you want, not opting out of what you don't want. Create a custom activity stream using "More", "Activity", "My Activity Streams" then "Create New Stream". Select your preferences on this page, give it a name and save it. The choice for "Following" doesn't seem to suit but that will be fixed next. Go back in to this new stream and under "Following" change it to "Content posted in areas I follow" which wasn't an option when creating a new stream. Save changes. Go into the sub-forums you want to view and follow them, selecting if you want notified etc each time. Select your new stream and you'll see only the new stuff in only the forums you've chosen to follow. Here's the heading of the one I've just done. They're not laid out well (IMO) doing this but gets you what you want I think.
  11. The MFA spokesman in this interview emphasises that the IOs at the border will still have the discretion to say no if they think you're abusing the system (living in Thailand on the "wrong" visa). No change there then. https://www.pattayamail.com/latestnews/news/the-60-days-visa-exempt-and-destination-thailand-visa-empower-immigration-officers-466938
  12. Pre-DTV days but this was discussed regarding other visa costs when it was first announced. https://aseannow.com/topic/1320861-new-visa-fees-beginning-on-19th-march-2024/
  13. It's not quite that simple. You need to read the DTA, in particular for this issue the Fiscal Domicile article, and see how you fit in.
  14. No. You can probably get it from the supplier's website, or if you currently have it on a disc then you could transfer it to USB using your old AOI.
  15. USB stick or direct download from supplier's site.
  16. The new one's storage is shown in the bottom line of the table you posted as 256GB and SSD (Solid State Drive). The 16GB is memory capacity.
  17. Also many living/working away from where they're registered as living and can't get the time off to travel back home to spend it.
  18. From Wise' website: For Kasikorn Bank, ‘Trade Finance Deposit' marking is equivalent to ‘International Funds Transfer’.
  19. Here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYbicxnGqNk
  20. Lots of ideas in the previous threads: https://aseannow.com/topic/1327550-legal-strategies-to-reduce-thai-tax/ https://aseannow.com/topic/1317007-legal-tax-minimization-for-foreigners/
  21. Recent thread on the same subject. Pick the good information out from the nonsense. https://aseannow.com/topic/1331630-using-sim-card-internet-at-home-instead-of-normal-internet-package/
  22. I'm not. I was answering the question I quoted and showing when a wire transfer is better than an ACH transfer. In your case it appears your money is already with Wise so not applicable.
  23. There's still one before Door 1 on departures level.
  24. No idea - I bought it at home (UK) and brought it here. Just found another item I ordered and it's the same make but a lower spec so might be of interest to the OP if he can find suitable availability. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/23054525283
