  1. And of course bring along your bank book and passport,,,
  2. Go to you bank with a note showing your account number and Thai address in English (type it is better) and ask them for a 1 page statement, Charge maybe 100 baht. The statement will show the date, your address, bank address and signed by bank official. I have used this method and it is accepted by Wise.
  3. Can a Covid test kit detect a variant?

  6. Try many times. Not work, Go to bank, Cannot do it at bank either. Bank IT dept investigating.
  7. Recently noticed a number of items on Facebook with the usage of clips from well-known Thai Government officials speaking in English extolling the virtues of investment. .Also there is attached an article from a well-known Thai newspaper praising the virtue of investment. The ad not the politicians nor the newspaper are citing enormous too good to be true profits .Ludicrous amounts for doing nothing. The reader is then led to a web site asking to deposit minimum around minimum 150 equiv US $, The company or whoever behind this ad is unregulated here in Thailand and based in an obscure country. After some research I conclude: A scam! 'Let the buyer beware'
  8. Just interested to know : do most building/home insurance policies in Thailand cover damage by earthquake? Or is it excluded?
  9. Thank u Sheryl: What you say more or less corresponds with the advice given to me by doctors in Thailand.
  10. Many thanks to scuascuba3. I watched the video by Dr John Dougall (searched and found it on Google) and it is certainly thought-provoking.
  11. Sheryl: I think u being a bit harsh on me. I thought I was posting a link when posting the reference. It is clear reading the article that it contains an opinion from a letter to the Guardian and IS NOT the view of the paper. I agree the content is possibly dated. I have regular PSA testing as recommended by my doctors. All I am saying is that the article is interesting. I would further be interested to know if anyone agrees that they should think twice before having a PSA test and if so why.
  12. Men concerned about prostate cancer should think before asking for a PSA test | Prostate cancer | The Guardian
  13. Wingnut : Thank you for sharing your experience. As others have confirmed and what I was told by a Thai tax specialist: No need to get a TIn or file a return if income is NOT assessable.
  14. I started this thread and I appreciate all the helpful replies. Especially from Pattaya57. In one reply he writes: "4) you will be given an official form saying you must come back at 90 days to show 800k still in bank. I only needed copy of passport bio page, valid to stay stamp page and last 3 months passbook pages with this form so pretty easy (you don't need to queue or get ticket, just go straight to desk 8 and show form, took one minute)' -Well I did my renewal on Friday 24 Jan picked up my passport today, Tuesday, and did my re-entry . The good news is that i was not asked to come back at 90 days nor given any official form. So have they discontinued this practice or what? Later if appropriate I will post my views re applying to BKK or Pattaya is better for retirement renewal etc
  15. i will soon need to apply to Pattaya immigration for yearly retirement renewal Previously renewals done at CW (Bangkok). Note I already have TM30 completed form with my Pattaya address. Some questions: 1 . Apart from completed TM 7, passport, bank letter and bank book, (800k) lease and passport copies, TM 30, 90 day report, any other document copies needed or forms to be filled in?? 2 Does the bank letter need to be dated the same day as i apply to immigration? 3. In Pattaya will I get my passport with new Visa renewal stamp back the same day I apply? 4. Will I need to report back at a later date re the 800k? 5 Anything else I should know re procedures at Pattaya immigration? Many thx in advance!
