Thailand now available as the country of residence.

Don't overthink things, I'm not trying to argue with anyone and simplifying things (without distorting them) is quite suitable to get insight into a particular aspect of an issue. Much has been made about the guys level of drunkenness but I'm pretty sure in the UK it wouldn't matter a jot if he failed the evidentiary test (2 chances are allowed) he'd be in the cells until sober (ie he could pass) or overnight if he was going to be in court in the morning. I'm trying to find out what the situation would be elsewhere and it seems more than fair to ask a guy who should know.

So in your time on the job and with your experience of multiple cases, would you let a guy walk because he was only a little bit over the legal limit?

It can change for exactly the reason you describe. Land Office don't keep records of this and that's why a letter from the Condo Office is needed at sale time to confirm the percentages permit such a sale.

Agreed, keep records but keep a low profile. UK Government pensions are pensions paid to civil servants, armed forces etc and it's correct that they can not be taxed in Thailand. The UK State Pension (or OAP) is often confused with these Government pensions but shouldn't be as it is classed as "assessable income" for Thai tax purposes. Have a look at the DTA and you'll see the exact language used.

I'm pretty sure he's asking how to take a credit for UK tax paid against any potential Thai tax bill. This can't be done using the current system and the post above yours presents a fudge or workaround for anyone determined to get on the system. Personally my UK tax bill outweighs any potential Thai tax bill so nothing should be due to the TRD, so even more reason to keep a low profile and not volunteer any information unless asked.

I have no desire to ripen bananas, that was the OP and he has already been advised regarding ethylene. My post was not to promote bananas from Amazon but to indicate that your claim they were plantains was somewhat dubious as the picture used was being used on Amazon (and many other places I might add) to show bananas.

Tell Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/FRESH-BANANAS-FRUIT-VEGETABLES-PRODUCE/dp/B01BZIQ3P6

Putting them in beside other fruits like avocados or apples will also help as they too give off ethylene. Alternatively, putting them in the oven or microwave also ripens them much more quickly.

The 35 years requirement only fully applies to those starting employment post 2016. For those in the middle, as it were they could be lower. I've seen reports of as little as 26 or 27 years but still entitled to the full whack due to contributions made and the calculations done in 2016.

I think you were correct with your original assumptions, my point was that he could also have been locked up in parts of the UK at these levels as what you are quoting as a UK limit is much lower in Scotland.

You weren't. Only in parts of the UK. In others it's 22 micrograms or 0.05% BAC so the OP could have been locked up there too.

Why do you say that? It was operated by 407 Pattana company who I've used many times from their location in Pattaya just north of Pattaya Klang.

He wasn't able to fill out accommodation details whereas I've always been able to do that (using Firefox on Win11).

What window are you referring to? Bangkok appears to be max 15, min 7 days before due whereas others are max 15 until due date. In person you can be up to 7 days late.

I'm slightly different as I've registered an account in the (Thai) owner's name/ID and use it to do my notification, and as far as I can tell there is nowhere on the registration or submission which requires her home (blue book) address. I don't even know it.

That is acknowledging receipt of your submission only and not (yet) approval/rejection. You'll get another email when it's approved or rejected. You can also check status on the system where another pdf will appear showing the approval with the officer's details etc and status changes as shown.

Have you tried them recently?

Good to see he's got 41 heart broken and a couple of thumbs down even in the short period they've been active.

I think the OP can expect many thumbs down reactions now. The heart broken as sad does not appear as negative to me, and despite the wailing a negative reaction is often needed.

On the paper TM6 you entered the re-entry permit number. I intend to do the same on the electronic version.

There's no 2.5% fee, they make that clear elsewhere, but the wording in the snip I posted makes me think they're loading the rate to make their money so not ideal.
