  1. Check this one - https://www.harrowschool.ac.th/academic
  2. My SCB account was hacked once in 2018 for 5000 thb, eventually after fighting with them for months I got my money back. I wont be signing any waivers or indemnity, better close the account
  3. You wont get extra points for the year that you had high salary. For point consideration, they calculate the latest available PND 91 . Example - 2 years you had 40,000 salary but in the 3rd qualifying year your salary is lets say 70,000 baht then you will get the maximum points i.e. 25 points
  4. No. If you are married, the threshold is 40,000 baht monthly and you will be assessed on that. There is a point structure those married to Thai ladies - 40,000 thb to 50,000 thb = 15 points 50,001 to 60,000 = 20 points 60,001 to 70,000 = 25 points The above is for Thai citizenship applications for those married to a Thai lady.
  5. oh sorry. My son also got Thai PP without ID at 2yrs old. Original Thai Birth Cert + original Tabien Baan were required at that time
  6. Once married (Thai Lady) you need to wait for 3 yrs from the date you get your Marriage Certificate, 1 year wait if have a child together However, 3 yrs of tax payments still required (PND 91) Company balance sheets, company tax records etc. If you do not wish to get married or marry your own nationality, then PR will be your choice ahead. Do remember if unmarried the minimum salary you earn has to be THB 80,000/- a month, half if married to Thai. Cost of PR = THB 200,000/- if unmarried or married to Non Thai Cost of Thai citizenship = THB 5100/-
  7. If married to a Thai lady , you can directly apply for Thai citizenship. If unmarried or married to a Non Thai lady , you need to apply for PR first 3 yrs of tax payments required + a bunch of company documents
  8. All healthy Thai males at the age of 20 have to report to their nearest military office for conscription. https://www.thaicitizenship.com/thai-military-service/
  9. The age to get ID card is 7
  10. I certainly wont be signing any disclaimers, will proceed to close account
  11. SCB is closing their Internet Banking Service from 14-JUL-2023
  12. No. Thai PR holders can pass thru Thai only lanes -Manual lane E gates are for Thai nationals only
  13. Mike you can open your own company, if PR is what you desire.
  14. I have no idea if a Spanish Court order will be accepted by the District Office. Since Thailand is not a member of the Apostile Convention. If its in Spanish, it has to be translated to English first and then Thai, then it has to be attested by your Embassy in Bangkok. After that it has to be further attested by the Thai M.F.A. in Chaengwattana, Bangkok. Then the document can be used in Thailand.
  15. There is an excellent thread about Thai citizenship, post your concerns there. @KUGS https://aseannow.com/topic/121353-story-of-my-thai-citizenship-application/page/270/
  16. As of 5th July 2023, SCB is blocking transactions over 50,000 thb I am unable to transfer over 50k
  17. I assume that you have a Thai Court order granting you child custody, In that case the copy of the court order will suffice for her absence, not an issue. Carry - Birth Cert Tabien Baan copy Thai Court order granting you sole custody
  18. OP has clearly mentioned that he is retired
  19. You will not be informed if HMK has signed your application or not. You will be called for oath. Getting invited for oath means your application has been counter-signed by His Excellency.
  20. He is confused between a visa and an extension of stay
  21. After cancellation of WP, u visit Immigration to cancel your non B. You can buy a 7 day extension to leave the country for THB 1900/- Immediately apply for extension of stay based on retirement (800k THB in the account)
  22. That is up to your daughter to break the law. Using other nationality is a ground for cancellation of Thai citizenship. Its the Thai law - THAI NATIONALITY ACT, B.E. 2508 (1965) Section 17 - A person, who hold Thai nationality by birth in the Kingdom of Thailand and has an alien father or mother, may be revoked of his or her Thai nationality, if it appears that: (1) he or she resides in a foreign country, where his or her father or mother has or used to have nationality, for a consecutive period of more than five years; (2) there is evidence indicating that he or she uses the nationality of his or her father or mother or other nationality, or has inclined towards the nationality of his or her father or mother, or other nationality; (3) having committed any act prejudicial to the national security or conflicting with the interests of the State or amounting to an insult to the nation; (4) having committed any act in contrary to the public order or good morals. The Minister shall order the revocation of Thai nationality in cases of (1) or (2) in the Court, upon request from Public Prosecutor. Ok sorry, may not be illegal but certainly a ground for cancellation of Thai citizenship.
  23. It has to be the same number updated in the Banks records. For 1st time activation in a new phone, Mobile data must be used, wifi not allowed
