Although we stayed in Korat-Hua Hin-Chang Mai and Khon Kaen, most of our stays were in Bangkok (7 or 8 different hotels)

In about 30 years we (me and my wife) must have booked hotels in Thailand over a hundred times.

Most of the time, my wife did the booking (only 4 or 5 star).

Never ,ever any problems.Not even the slightest "misunderstanding"

Korat -Pak Chong about 90 km

On the road from Korat to Pakchong you take the direction to Kao Yai.(left)

After about 15 minutes the row will bend to the left.Just before that bend you can follow the small road on your right to Mission Hills.There is a sign and you can't miss.

Axel.

The move was about 2 years ago and your first advice about 3 years ago.

I used both names on the documents

I also used a well known shipping company on a door to door base.

Cost a little bit but NO trouble

As retiree you are allowed to ship items to your new homecountry.

No problems with customs if you follow the rules.

I had a full 40 ft container

Must be shipped within a half year after your arrival.

My salt is in a small stainless steel pot.

The lid is covered with an extra soft plastic cover.

(It was sold in Germany this way together with a simular pot for pepper).

I used in for more than 5 years in Indonesia and about two years in Thailand.

I have absolutely NO problems.

Korat Immigration office:

Association Building no. 19

Assumption College, Nakhonratchasima 30000

Tel. 044-247923, 247922

I was there a couple of days ago and they do ALL immigration activities

Must be already about 8 months that I cannot enter (anymore).

To-day I went to the Korat immigration office to find out about the status.

Doiing the tourist visa extension

Replacing stamps from old passport into new passport

They do NOT require health certificate!!

Congratulations.

Nice to know that I just can stay at home (in Korat) for my renewance on December next

2 questions:

Non imm.O-A (A stands for pre aproved) will only be issued outside Thailand in your home of residence.

I suppose it is a "O" ??

The last days it was the talk that for retirement you will NOT need a medical certificate anymore??

I was already waiting for you L

Did the immigration officer told you that last week??

Information from KF forum is that to-morrow one of its members is collecting his one year extension.

So let us wait another 1-2 days and we will know .

Dusit BKK near Lumpini Park.

Breakfast

Open - inspected or whatever.....

Taking parcels from a stranger was already a big NO 25 years ago.

Still hope you're successful

A lot depends on the tax treaty.

At the moment I got paid gross/nett in Holland,provided I proof my tax paying in my country of residency.

There is dicussion going on at the moment if they have to right to request that.

On the other hand I have an email correspondence with a fellow countryman who got an tax bill of 12.000 euro from the tax office in Holland(as he could not proof the tax paying elsewhere)

Yes,everything is allright.

She is in the house now,sniffing around and finding her way.

It was not easy for Monkey000 ( who came to Korat)to leave her behind,I can tell you.

I am very happy with her (and so is my gf)

I got an attack about 4 years ago(left foot) and I agree with writers about the pain !!!!!

I am a non drinker and non smoker with medium sport activity.

My doctor (in Indonesia)advised me to take 1/2 tablet of Zyloric 300 (as prevention)

In Thailand this was replaced by Allopurinol 300 at the cost of 5 baht per tablet (6 sept 2006)

I have my uric acid checked twice a year (lab costs 200 baht)

Normal range of measurements should be between 3,4 and 7.

If it becomes higher,you can sign in for an attack !

I am glad too

To-morrow shopping for some items.

Chicken wire to be installed so she cannot slip through the gates!!

Gf is asking every hour when she is coming

Monkey,

I pm'ed you a few minutes ago.

I also informed about my phonenumber.

Was there 2 weeks ago (also for the 90 days)

Will be next year ??!! May be ??

But every time I am there it is improving as far as interior concerns ( now they do have separation panels)

Very friendly service indeed

Renault dauphine ,bought in 1964 and it was 9th hand (at least)

could follow BBC world and CNBC on Agila Ku satelite

Up till now on UBC NO: CNN-BBC-TV5-CNBC-CCTV-Bloomberg-

Since about 10 minutes no broadcast anymore .

I think you will find it starts the day its entered into your passport, I don't have a retirement visa, I have a B, and thats how that works.

Sol

Sol:

If you have a B and are an expert in the B questions,than don't answer questions about O-A.

Your answer was wrong.

Look at Lopburi3's reply.That is 100% correct and the OP can work with that.
