  1. Incorrect. Here is the correct address - Mail all the required documents to - นางสาวปาณิสรา โภคิณพาณิชย์ Legalization Division, Consular Department, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 123 Changwattana Road, Laksi, Bangkok 10210
  2. The notification of staying in the Kingdom over 90 days is not the visa extension. If a foreigner staying in the kingdom over 90 days without notifying residence to immigration officer or notifying later than the set period, must notify in person and a fine of 2,000.- THB will be collected. If a foreigner who did not make the notification of staying over 90 days is arrested, he/her will be fined 5,000.- THB with an additional fine not exceeding 200.- THB for each day which passes until the law is complied with. If the foreigner leaves Thailand anytime during the 90-day period, then the day count will restart from upon the arrival date of his/her re-entry into Thailand. (every case) If the foreigner leaves the country and re-enters, the day count starts at 1st date of the latest re-entry in every case. https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/90days-report/
  3. Yes, you can start a company with your Thai wife (if married) Pay yourself salary of THB 40k a month, pay tax on that salary, social security etc. That being said, its not easy to start a company but its doable if you really want to apply for Thai citizenship. You will have to pay company tax, WP fees, rents, salaries etc. However, when you apply, Special Police requests for PND 50 of the company (in case you are owner/shareholder)

  13. Correct. Only Thai baht accounts are protected, USD/EUR accounts not protected. Who is protected? Individual depositors are automatically protected upon opening a deposit account with a financial institution as prescribed in the Deposit Protection Agency Act B.E. 2551 (2008). Protection is based on a per depositor per institution basis, meaning that all of an individual’s deposit accounts across all branches of that financial institution will be aggregated into a single amount. Juristic depositors such as companies, funds, foundations, temples, associations, and cooperatives are also protected in the same manner as individual depositors. Foreigners with Thai baht deposit accounts at member financial institutions in Thailand are also protected under the Deposit Protection Agency Act. However, “Non-Resident Baht Accounts” as defined in the Exchange Control Act B.E. 2485 (1942) are not protected. If a member financial institution’s license is revoked, depositors of that institution will receive their deposits from the Deposit Protection Agency up to the coverage limit. The coverage is based on a per depositor per institution basis (not one account per institution), meaning that depositors with multiple accounts across all branches of that institution will have those deposits - both principal and interest - aggregated into a single amount. The current coverage limit is 1 million baht https://www.dpa.or.th/en/articles/view/protection-limit

  15. Hi, I have seen my friends pink card who is a non PR, it starts with 6XXX. It mentiones 'Khon Tang Dao Thua Pai' means General Alien whereas there is no mention of this on the card of PR holders.
  16. If you hold Krungsri (Yellow) account, they offer 'DEBIT ALL ATMs' debit card. This card offers unlimited free ATM use , any bank, nationwide. Fee = THB 480.- for 3 years https://www.krungsri.com/en/personal/card/krungsri-debit-card/all-atms
  17. Card less QR withdrawal is free for unlimited times, Nationwide.
  18. The 'Certificate of Legal Age' requirement has also been dispensed with.
  19. Can any PR holder please confirm this - The Pink Card that comes with the Yellow Book, upon request, offers zero benefits that I have experienced, except for ID. However, a Pink Card issued to Permanent Residents, who have specifically applied for PR with working rights and etc. has a tiny PR printed on it that the ordinary Pink Card does not. The PR Pink Card provides free 'Emergency Care' at 'any' hospital, even BNH. @LoudHailer mentioned this in an another topic.
