Hi mate. Tick box "C", which says your Government (Australia) does not mandate disclosure of your TFN tax file number.

Also received. I am Australian, all Thai banks will be requesting this. Easy to fill out. If an Australian tax resident, even if retired and living in Thailand, with no Thai income no need to have TIN. Tick no for the US questions. As our Australian Information Commission says we don't have to provide our TFN (Australian tax file number) to overseas entities then you just tick "C" saying your country does not mandate disclosure of your home TIN / TFN.

100% correct. I went today to Room 4, took just 15 minutes. Didn't have to submit my yellow house book either, passport suffices.

Agreed. It's awful generic blah writing.

I hope we can now get all Star Alliance points on domestic flights with Thai. WE only gives for Lufthansa group.

I use Manager now, free, open source. I had MYOB for 20 years and they went to a stupid yearly subscription model too. I have five separate personal/ business accounts on it, very easy to use. https://www.manager.io/download

With a Thai partner, I love Khon Kaen. I think there's great European / Mexican food restaurants and a vibrant art scene. Plus we love plants so lots of great nurseries. Chiang Mai has too many busy tourists for me these days.

Just checking if there are any second hand book stores in Khon Kaen Province? We are in Namphong and I have a lot of read books I'd like to exchange / donate.

Do you have to do the transfer of visa/ re-entry permit, in old passport into new passport at the same IO you got the original visa from? Can you do it at Swampy airport upon return perhaps? Thx
