The rest of us don't put up with anything,we go with the flow.If you are gunna worry about a 90 day report that you can post or do online,then i suggest you don't come here long term.As to ypur question,maybe.

You could set your landlord up as a 3rd party payee.Always handy to be in the same bank.

Thank you.

Since I didn't know the Thai language well I was pretty much tricked into signing the paper of "confession". And when I presented them the photos of the several abuse my ex inflicted on me, they told me they were just over one year old and won't be sufficient to open a case with. My ex even contacted my native country's embassy in Thailand making sure I had left a country. During that phone call they also informed my mother that I would have trouble re-entering the country. Is it really true? Pretty much the whole time I've been a victim of the abused system.

 

Could you elaborate a little more on how to check if I'm blacklisted pls?

I don't think your embassy would have given any details about you to a random caller.Sounds like bs to me.In my experience Thais don't make good liars,their storys are usually full of holes.And when call them on their bs,another story is presented,then you know it's bs.

Edit by me.

When divorcing in Thailand.. How many farang have got the half of the price of the house-sell?

I heard few stories about the wife put 10 M. price on the house, but it is worth 2 M. baht.

That way she makes sure the house will never be sold.. she can live in the house forever.

If the farang  no wants to move out himself... she has ways to get him out by force..

I have already told my long term gf this.She rekons she is too lazy to train another farang,so stuck with me.

So any usufruct written during a marriage in the land deed is rendered void through a divorce?

 

That is more than a bit of a bummer.

 

There are any number of guys who have "secured" land in this way. 

This is one of the resons i am not married,i live in sin.The woman i am with trusts me.

Well, not really.

 

If the Usufruct was written with you future wife prior to the marriage then this would indeed be considered the wife's property before marriage. However, a Divorce only cancels contracts made between husband and wife. Since the Usufruct was written prior to this time, then this Usufruct would also still be valid.  

 

A Usufruct cannot be cancelled unilaterally and like you mentioned. But the property can change hands during the terms of this agreement. For example in the invent of your wife's death, if she holds the Land Title. But since this agreement was written prior to her death, then it still holds true and is still valid. In Contract Law, the consideration they take into account is the conditions on the date this Contract was written and signed, and not what happens 10 years after. Unless of course both partied wish to void the Contract.

 

If the Op has an agreement to sell this property and split the proceeds with his x-wife, then he should get this on legal paper. This saves on the possibility of one person not being fully understanding the agreement, or someone changing there mind later.  To make this valid then a time line will also have to be given. Say one year from the date of signing this agreement that the property must be sold by them and proceeds split, otherwise the person in best position may not want to sell the said property. Just say he tried and then keep the property for himself.

The usufruct was signed after marriage,so useless.

yes, the usufruct was granted after we got married. 

 

Is it easy for her to do, and can be done quickly, or is it up to each individual land department?

You wasted your time getting the  usufract.She can not sign away her rights on divorce.This is for single people,mainly  men.

I understand that you "hate" the TE program but your arguments get weaker by the day, imho. So what do you mean "who can afford to lose it"? The 500k are an investment in a more comfortable way of spending extended periods of time in TH. Of course there are those (esp. under the age of 50) who prefer to go on 6 visa runs every year hoping that the SETV regime won´t change. And of course the same goes for those who do not have the money to invest the 500k or see no value in it compared to spending 30, 40 or 60k a year for their visa runs. Each to their own. However, it is an investment in, what someone recently called a "lifestyle", and as with many investments the money partially or fully disappears. Whoever bought a car knows that the moment you drive off the dealer´s car park you´ve lost thousands and thousands of your initial investment/payment. But does the buyer care, worry (or like you moan) about it? 

 

Anyway, ´nuff said.....

At least you get some money back from your investment in a car,quite a lot in Thailand.You get nothing back from TE visa,you can't sell it and if you pull out you get nothing.Fair enough for the rich under 50's,but anybody else would be a mug.

Would this Non O-A visa be doable for someone legally working and living in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam but wishing to visit Thailand for, say, a weekend every month or two?  I am over 50 years old and have over 800,000 baht in my bank account in Thailand as well as in my account in Vietnam.  Thanks very much.

No problems mate,just have to be retired in Thailand.Probably have to get OA in home country.

A flag was flown on TVF a while back and govt officers are still wading through the feedback.

All right for some but i don't think comrad Sandy is ready for the one to one yet.He has to toughen up a bit.

There are 2 sets of prices.. this is common around the world and in different situations... if you are a foreigner of retirement age here, it works in your favor - - most look at it as a Sr. discount... UNTIL - it works against you and then foreigners cry racism and all sorts of other horrible things when it is just something else that might work against them, or in favor of someone else, OR mostly, it is just not the way things are done in their home countries and they object to not having absolutely everything like it is at home... people seem to not realize that part of living in a different culture is that things are looked at differently sometimes than in their culture...

 

I get such easy access here whereas a Thai person has to pay even for an application to visit my country and would have to jump through hoops to get in for a 30 day visit... and I can come in here easy, get 30 days for free, no questions asked... 

 

but people do not see this... they only seem to see apparent slights... not where they are favored - that means nothing... 

Last year i travel India,mostly by train.Seniors discount every time.

This one truth will set you free. Be prepared. The same goes for the same agency you dealt with last time. However, there is one thing that is always the same if you are a farang but I will not go into that here. You have all probably felt it.

Anybody any idea about continuing across Lao & into Vietnam on a Thai registered m/c... and how long can you use it there?

 

TIA..

Forget Vietnam.We are all waiting for that to change.

Unless you are gunna cruz around Laos it is not worth the effort.Leave your bike at a Nong Khai gh and do it all by public transport.

Not sure if your in this position but are you able to go online (if have internet banking & increase your limit )

Also bear in mind that (pending ) they may need paper work or reason for a transaction over $10,000 That's what they do in a country like Auss so i keep all mine under

Funny about that.I just change my limit at an Ozzy bank,today.Had to phone them and just tell them my name and birth date.They send me a coded number and i tell them over the phone.Reason was optional,i put beer money
