Anyone has experience with Hainan Airlines from Bangkok to Europe via Beijing? Thanks Felt

Will it also include foreigners with tax resident status to deduct 15,000, - on taxable income or...? Felt

Excuse me but do I hear that if a foreigner has money in a regular savings account in Bangkok Bank, the money is locked🤯. I myself have a significant amount in a regular savings account but have never used any of it to extend a marriage / retirement visa. But after following this tread for a while its looks like Bangkok Bank is the not bank to use anymore just out of principle and I have thought and will move my savings to Krungsri where I have two accounts but not really been in a hurry and hopefully it's not as Bkk bank freeze any foreign account because it could possibly be a visa extension account? Thanks Felt

The border dispute between Thailand and Cambodia has been a long-standing conflict. When France colonized Cambodia in 1863, they drew a border for the country. This has been constantly disputed by Thailand. The conflict flares up from time to time. This time the conflict has escalated after a Cambodian soldier was killed on May 28 at the border. Thailand has accused Cambodia of laying new mines that injured Thai soldiers. Internal political conditions in Thailand and Cambodia are often the reason for the flare-ups and the border dispute is being used to mobilize nationalist feelings in both countries. In this case, it is particularly political circumstances on the Thai side that may explain the escalation. Background The border is particularly contentious because of the Preah Vihear Temple, which is located in the area. This is an ancient temple located on a mountain ledge near the border between Thailand and Cambodia. The Preah Vihear Temple, which Thais call Phra Viharn, has significance both as a cultural symbol and a religious place of worship for people on both sides of the border. The temple was built in the 12th century during the Khmer Empire, the ancestors of today's Cambodians. However, the area has been under both Cambodian and Thai control throughout history. – Back then, there were no nation-states, but dynamic borders. It was the Europeans who were concerned with the map, and what is mine and what is yours, who brought the border with them during the colonial era. In 1962, the International Court of Justice in The Hague ruled that the temple belongs to Cambodia, but the conflict flared up again in 2008 when Cambodia applied to have Preah Vihear registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Do I understand correctly then that in practice the surviving parent can with the law in hand distribute the inheritance to who and the way they want to full-blood brothers / sisters to the deceased? Thanks again Felt

Thank you for replying but this is not about me but the legal age for a teenager to drive🙂 Felt

What is the current legal age for a Thai teenager to get a driver's license and ride a motorbike? The law says 15 years old but then the engine must be under 90cc. However most motorbikes are 100, 110, 125cc!😕 Thanks Felt

Ok, thanks Felt

No because this in Thailand and regarding Thai`s inherit Thais so thought maybe they have their own law / way with inheritance Felt

Does anyone know the order of inheritance in Thailand? Is the surviving parent first in line when an adult child passes away? If so, but the surviving parent has no interest in the inheritance and understandably not want any inheritance from their own child. How is the inheritance then divided between the siblings of the deceased? Thanks Felt

Yes

hear hear

Not to hijack the thread, but for pension visa extension, it is then correct to think that only STM2 and STM9 are applicable? Thanks Felt

Thanks for replying and yes but is that wrong? Btw, I already pay taxes here on around 8-900K annually and that is actually enough. However, I don't think about giving away the money 2-4 months before applying for a visa extension but already this year. In my home country there is no inheritance tax or gift tax on what is given to a spouse and from what I understand there is no tax on gifts under 10 or is it 20 million to a spouse in Thailand so the better half should not be taxed on the amount so if she gives me the money 5-6 months later then why should I as a spouse be taxed here. Or to put it differently I know that the better half before any transfer from me already has about Thb 4-500,000, - (we keep the finances separate) in savings as of today so, she could actually give me the money today and the rest I have on savings here already. Is a Thai taxed for giving his/her spouse a gift of money under a taxable certain amount as mentioned above? Thanks Felt

If I understand the above correctly and if using 800k deposited for retirement extension that money could with other words be transferred from my wife to me 2 months before application for extension (now 4 months following the rule change at Bangkok Bank) Is that correct? Thanks Felt
