It was a “fake” visa! And I didn't want to go to immigration with it, because they always look very closely at my passport! What if the official discovers the “fake visa”? So new passport ... No risk!!!

36 years and never a problem... 😉

It was a fake VISA!

I have lived in Thailand for 36 years. Once, about 30 years ago, I worked with an agency .... and there was a wrong VISA in my passport! So I went to the embassy to get a temporary passport to leave the country and then had a new one issued at home! That was not only expensive, it was also instructive! Just last year the Bangkok police got their hands on several dozen passports again! I would never entrust my passport to anyone except a government official! Official.... I think rather tolerated...money can talk...;-)

"However, it looks as if remittances will not be taxed in either year (2024 and 2025) or in one year." Sorry, but 2024 was already taxed according to the law in force at that time!

Certainly not that! Because the tax was levied according to the law of 2024, i.e. legally

A good friend in Jomtien, with PACIFIC CROSS for 6 years. Sum insured per year 5 mill. deductible 40.000.-THB Back pain last year, goes to the BKK hospital, Diagnosis CYSTE. Inpatient admission and surgery = approx. 180,000 THB When planning the operation, they discover: difficult position of the cyst, a piece of bone has to be removed first. New costs: 260,000 baht. After the operation: Pacific Cross pays “only” 100,000 baht and deducts a 40,000 baht excess. Conclusion: the insured person pays 200,000 baht himself. Premium increase of 30%. Then what is no exception here...the “notification” from the PC From now on the back is no longer insured!

Yes, the hospital is very good, but completely overpriced! I asked for a quote for an upcoming operation. It was to remove the gall bladder and operate on an umbilical hernia. Minimally invasive! Costs: BPH approx. 820,000.-THB Private clinic outside of tourist centres like Pattaya Chiang Mai or Bangkok, which ALL have the same prices! I had the operation in Korat. Single Room in BPH Standard 11.300.-THB Superior room Superior 17.000.-THB 2 rooms! I paid 6000.-THB for a superior room in Korat, also 2 rooms! For the OP. 235.000.-THB also minimally invasive!
