Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II

[campbell]

Can anyone confirm if VFS will accept a rental agreement (lease) on my residence along with my most recent receipt of notification (90days) and TM 30 as proof of address when renewing my British passport.

Thanks in advance

Use your driving licence.  Or use your phone bill statement.    You can download a statement from your phone company app.

I don't have a driving licence and the phone bill is in my landlady's name. And my mobile phone is prepaid! 

Would a statement from my Thai bank with my full address be acceptable?

This is from the UK Government website for renewing a passport while overseas.

okay thanks, guess I will need to apply for a residence certificate from immigration - last time they gave me a letter but apparently they can longer do that. My fault, thought the TM30 was sufficient proof of residence. 

The problem is that when I retired,  had my media visa cancelled and then applied for an extension of stay for retirement, immigration merely gave me a year's stamp.

My internet bill did the job for me, about a year ago.

....which will be a pain as you'll need to get it translated.  I'd try with a bank statement.

Would monthly bills from True Visions and True Online (for internet) do?? Sorry to be a nuisance, if not will go to immigration office

[campbell]

thanks to you all. fortunately I have given myself plenty of time before I need to renew my passport so will probably go with the residence certificate complete with translation option just to be safe.
