Obviously they learn Thai, coz they're terrible in English.

Good for them

Absolutely correct @GarryP

You have to do, otherwise ur breaking the law.It amounts to using your former nationality

'The News' says - The new processing deadline for applications is 90 days or 120 days for applications filed from abroad.

RG publication requires signature of His Excellency R10

You said ' Japanese housewives' but someone who is working as a company MD obviously wont go to grade 1 and start learning Thai.

Now you will get Thai ID card in 90 days according to new rules.

I read that. It also mentions that citizenship applications will be processed in 90 days. What a joke ????

He may be poor, that's why fined.

What's the source of this info? @Arkady please confirm

@qualtrough and @sinthavee Please share your experience of updating Thai nationality in your bank accounts. Thanks!

Good to know abt your detailed experience. Good Luck

It takes 18-24 months to get to the MOI interview

@ubonjoe Joe, your expert guidance is required.

Thanks for the detailed answer. 300 -400 baht is deducted from my A/c as tax per year. Its not worth my time to visit RD and claim it back, I let it go. Wisdom A/c is a Wealth A/c for High Net Worth individuals who have AUM (Assets Under Management) of 10M baht. With this A/c you get lot of perks. So, I guessed you may be wealth client. ????

If you're a human , you can get a Thai Tax Id number ???? Visit any Revenue Office with a Thai speaker who can translate for you. Docs- Copy of PP photo page For address - Lease agreement/D.L/Pink ID card+Yellow Book/Letter from your Embassy or Immigration Any one of the above. If I get a tax number, do I have to fill in a tax return every year? = NO

Yes I had the same fear, so I went with Krungsri Mee Tae Dai A/c. It gives 1% but with passbook. The IO is happy to see the passbook, no headache for me.

I don't have an EZ account but my normal savings account in K Bank, KrungThai, BB all decuct 15 % tax. I have provided the Tax ID still it is being deducted. Maybe you're a wisdom customer with AUM more than 10 Mill THB, so you get special treatment.

Krungsri pays 1 % in Mee Tae Daai but their ATM card is fantastic. The card allows unlimited ATM withdrawals nationwide from any ATM (No conditions) which is fantastic. Fee is THB 480/- for 3 yrs, I think one of the best in the industry. SMS alerts @ of THB 19 pm have to be subscribed which is mandatory.

Non sense about the embassy letter & Interest thing. 15 % tax is deducted whether you have tax id or not. You can get it all back from the R.D. Any human can apply for a Thai Tax ID very easily. @CANSIAM They probably cant speak English well then, thang chart (foreigner) cannot open account = BS

You have to buy an E-coupon from Shoppee online, then register on Bkk Hospital website and then they will call for confirmation. Here's the link - https://shopee.co.th/-E-Coupon-Bangkok-Hospital-วัคซีนทางเลือกโมเดอร์นา-(Moderna)-ล็อต-2-i.250344218.12007267023 All the best!

@HampiK Krungsri also offers to foreigners. In Krungsri u get pass book as well but interest is 1% upto 5 Mill Baht It pays monthly interest

Yes, it was possible few yrs before. Now they capture fingerprints at entry & exit. How will the overstayer change his/her fingerprints? Any suggestions on changing fingerprints are welcome.

Moderna booster is available at Bkk Hospital HQ, anyone welcome (My friend recently got it) Not free, need to pay THB 1650/- online
