Happy happy

Hello TantrikLvr, I would like to thank you very much for taking the time to tell me your view and experiences. Particularly the expression 'too good to be true' company and "suspiciously inexpensive" are apt and explaining your own personal dealing are very revealing. Its assisted me greatly about whether I want to pursue anything with this company. take care.\Thx again, 🙂

A broker recently contacted me saying they offer a good deal for yearly medical insurance, I did some checking on internet= many complaints... .... Anyone here know or have experience of this company?

I am currently looking to rent a different place to live in Thailand under a 1-year lease., Some Landlords (or their agents) are asking me for a deposit of 2 months and one month rent in advance. I thought I read somewhere that in some cases they can only ask for 1 month deposit. Would someone kindly clarify the correct position for me? Thanks in advance.

Yes, another one...but what is wrong with some of these people? It's just going to make it worse for we other foreigners living here in Thailand.

Does anyone know his current Visa status? What Visa would he be given on arrival?

So in Bangkok the water throwing starts on 12 April but concludes on 16 April...right?

Use the 800k in bank to qualify for the 1 year so called retirement visa extension. This amount is kept in a separate account in a Bangkok Bank branch in BKK. Currently I live in BKK but may decide to move to Pattaya. If I do move can I leave the money in the Bangkok bank but get a Bangkok Bank branch in Pattaya to i) update my bank book and ii) give me the annual letter for immigration? However if I do move and decide to withdraw the 800k from the Bangkok branch and put it in a bank in Pattaya will that affect the rule about leaving 400k in the account all the time? Thanks for any input.

Can you imagine if in Thailand every day a load of boat people arrive on Thailand shores. They are accommodated in hotels and get paid money to do nothing and later get free education, health care, and housing. But it would never happen in Thailand only in places who give preference to losers over their our citizens! PS For boat people read= illegal immigrants etc.

Yes and others are also being told the same by the RD i.e. no need to file anything. Though there are some persons on these forums who for some inexplicable reason(I will not ask why) are determined to try to suggest we all need to file tax returns here in Thailand even though for many of us that is not the case and never was the case.

Yes the Thai authorities and no one else( including any unofficial guide) are the only ones who can clarify.

A pride of lions are walking down a path in the jungle when one lion licks the butt-hole of the lion in front of him. The lion in front says. "Hey....what's the deal with licking my butt-hole?" And the second lion says: "I just ate a lawyer and I'm trying to get the taste out of my mouth."

Dear oh dear: Proving your paranoia.

So quick question: If my bank statement shows that the income I have brought into Thailand is less than 60,000 baht in 2024 I do not have to file a tax return right? (remember have the 800k on deposit that can be used)

Question: if someone is on a retirement visa and who is considered a tax resident how much income can that person bring in annually to Thailand before being liable to Thai tax?

Yes hope u are correct. Though if your application is refused you will be out of time. And if they start to consider your app after 21 days does that mean its already out of time??
