Getting free interest without even moving your finger, isnt it good? Singaporean, British banks are far more stable than Thai banks

100 % correct

2019 batch still waiting? Almost 4.5 yrs for MOI interview?

The OP has pink card and house book in his possession already

Yes, since you have the 13 digit Pink ID card for foreigners, the same 13 digits on the card will be your new TIN. They will copy your address from your Yellow House Book

The 10 digit TIN is no longer valid. They now have a 13 digit TIN issued to all foreigners, Thais use their Thai ID card. You will have to apply for a fresh 13 digit TIN at your nearest Revenue Office Passport + address certificate from Immigration will be required

@saakura Any good news ?

Fixed Deposit

He is on a Non B extension + work permit, coming on VE will invalidate his work permit

Rogue amphur Marriage to a Thai is not required

The owner of the house where you live will have to attend the district office ( Amphur ) in person with you. 2 Thai witness 8 photos 1X1 inch Your Passport copy certified by your Embassy, translated into Thai and then certified by Thai M.F.A, chaengwattana Some offices require Birth certificates as well Pop in to your Local office and inquire about the requirements, take some one to speak Thai

Each bank has its own rules, be specific of the bank I bank with Kasikorn and can speak for them, here are the rules - Account maintenance - Savings: Baht 50 per month for an account inactive for more than one year, with outstanding balance of less than Baht 2,000 https://www.kasikornbank.com/en/rate/fee/ChargesDoc/Servicingfeesfordeposits-andotherservicecharges-en.pdf

Joking

You farang, you no refund

Hope for the best

When was it great the last time?

Many functions are not available for foreigners- 1. Opening a new savings/current/FCD account - not available 2. Not allowed to open Fixed Deposits via the app 3. Mutual Fund / Share trading account - not possible via the app 4. Cannot request for a Balance confirmation certificate 5. Cannot request/apply for a credit card

You have agreed that in case of any fraud and you loose money from your account, the bank will not be held responsible.

Hope it turns out false, if not , its bad news for the current candidates

I was informed by my contact in MOI that the current government is not interested in processing citizenship applications. He has no idea when the next MOI interview will be conducted

Thanks for the update

@onthemoon any update for your MOI interview?

@Dan O Police Regulations , TM30 in the case where a foreigner returns to the same address were published in the Royal Gazette in June 2020, effective 30 June 2020 Summary here - http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2563/E/141/T_0001.PDF What this means is that having once filed a TM30, if the foreigner temporarily stays elsewhere, but returns to his registered place of residence within the validity of his current permission of stay, or a valid multiple entry visa or a re entry permit and returns to his already registered place of permanent residence, then there is no requirement to file a further TM30. See attached files This is published in the Respected Royal Gazette of Thailand, no Immigration office in the country is above the Royal Gazette. Peace.
