Thanks Tod I've always just used a bank letter 400k banked nothing showing detail. Never been a problem. I always get a new kr2 but they always reject it taking the copy of the original. That's been like five years now. Guessing you can get a kr2 even if divorced and it will be stamped. No validation of a current marriage. It's just validation of past registered marriage. Therefore, they realize this and stop taking it. I provide both rather than try to outguess them. Already completed the TM7 so hope they don't make me rewrite it. So I pick the extension up in 21 days. You know the success of peoplepicking up the last day before expiration... how it used to be? They let me do it the old way last year because we already purchased tickets South. A week before the new year it's insanely inconvenient. Just curious and hopeful Thanks for your help and input

I worked, traveled in Indonesia for a few years eons ago. Mainly Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi. Spent good time in Raja Ampat. Bali is meh and has been since the bombing. It was full of drunken Aussies. The Balinese moved out now leasing to Muslims. The temples sadly are not worth visiting now imo. Ubud sucked even back 15 years ago as stated. Rural Indonesia is very cool, but it's rough. Little AC, no ice, always hot and pretty much only local food What do you want to know? When are you planning a trip? June July best

Just Monday I bought a few bottles of scotch at big C right before 2pm. I think the law applied to consumption on premises.

I'm super confused. I read in BKK Post that there was a 10k fine for day drinking. Now it's much ado over nothing? I'm asking because I enjoy day drinking and 9/10 out in day than night. So, this would especially apply to lower Sukhumvit I imagine as entertainment area???

Assuming this goes on into 2026. What's the recommendation for sending tax form to IRS? I recall reading many moons ago many preferred and thought best just regular mail. The above post pretty through and says regular mail going out of Thailand ok

Hi I just completed assembling my package and thought I'd ask if there's anything new to be concerned with ? Noticed over the years despite all the smaller little niggling stuff that nothing changes. I bank at BBL and the money sits untouched yoy. A simple no if that's the case is fine. OH! Is it a problem if my wife picks up my passport and renewal? I doubt it, but wanted to ask. She'll update the account and I'll give her a photocopy of my passport signed asking for her to manage the issue Thank you

The price to mint the coin is irrelevant as it stays in circulation for decades. Paper banknotes deteriorate rapidly, but I hate the polymer notes. Long live cash Edit: I think stores will price everything to round up in their favor eg .X6-.X9 so it looks less expensive. When it goes in your cart you're paying an extra 5%. Hopefully, they just round up or down the final total.

Would anyone know if this affects my payout from SS pension I won't begin to draw from until end of Q1 2026? I can see what I'm supposed to be paid out on the SS site. Thanks
