A new Pope gets elected quicker.

Can you imagine what would happen if all the POTY candidates were put in a locked room together till the vote is done.

We look forward for some exciting posts and I am sure Naam's dogs and staff did not vote.

Seriously a good and well deserved win,

Indeed and as it happens I'm leaving for the hospital shortly, coincidently you're leaving for my ignore list now.

Suanprung?

If you refue them they will be sent back eventually and the sender then can recover the charges for handling storage and sending them back from you.

$55 does not seem unreasonable duty and handling and sales tax.  Delaying adds storage at a high rate too.

Importing goods does have customs charges (probably about 50% for that kind of good and you are liable for GST on the total of the Shipping and goods.

Can you transfer a condo to a Thai person without them actually buying it?  What I mean is, would it not have to be shown as a sale....on paper at least?

Efectively that is what it is.  Transfers of property.....cars..land are treated as sales even to family members though usually at the government assessed rate...and the tax has deductions based on the time of ownership.

this is only one case which has happened

I am personally aware of one cased where the immigration officer insisted on the person withrawing the cash to show him.  Fortunately he had access to two credit cards, he had to use his foreign credit card to withdraw a cash advance as his thai bank had a limit of 10000baht a day through ATM machines.  The balance slip was nt accepted.

what is your reference to prove your derogatory accusation.

they could ALWAYS refuse (discretion of IO) but i cannot believe a visitor arriving in bkk with return ticket within 30 days will be refused entry even if it were his 3rd exempt entry.

If you do make sure you have 20000baht cash on you....no cards, to match the financial requirement too.

interesting...

I am sorry I was wrong at the moment this is land borders.  I would not try to rely on visa exempts by air though.  They can still refuse.

If you are coming to get one do not come.  If you come and accidently get ones good luck.

The op does not need a degree to open a tutor centre. All he requires is 4 Thai staff and 2 million baht in capital. Why is this so difficult to understand. He does not require any teaching credentials for this or teachers' license of any kind. Just a legal business with the right amount of Thai staff and capital.

Not completely true.

His wife can open a business without any requirement for Thai Staff.  THere is a requirement to have thai staff to get a work permit for a foreigner but it is less than the normal one.  A tutoring centre may come under special rules as their definition of a school may cover these.

First thing the OP must get into his head is it is not his school it is his wife's.  This may  be the hardest change to keep refering to it as her school when talking to anyoe but is the most important to his chances of survival

Remember in the new year you can get no more than 2 visa exempts entries.

I am happy to see that VF is pulling away from the field

So he is leaving his house is he.....off to celebrate his potential win :)

A pity Warp Speed never made it this year, then we could have had a real contest.

Just because they are on the list they do not have to sign it.  You may have to shop around but I am sure you will find someone.  If you have trouble I think a phone call to the embassy would put you on the right track.

To ask a definitive answer you really should check your embassy.

This could prove a very complex situation.

The child is allowed to remain in thailand with limited rights as a Stateless person born in Thailand.  The child is being issued with Swedish citizenship.  Hence no longer a stateless person.  Will the child have to leave Thailand or be considered on overstay. (I realise there is no penalty for overstay for children).
