Hi there

was wondering if anyone could assist me or advise me on the best way to sell uk shares from here in thailand.any help would be grateful

Do you mean as a business? Doubt that anyone will help you there - too many rules can get broken.

Or is it just some shares you happen to own? They can probably be transferred in a private deal without hassle.

Why is this in the Pattaya forum, when it should be in the business forum?

Through the same channels as you bought them perhaps??.

Moved to business forum.

Your post was very vague, if you wish to off load shares you have paper certificates for try looking at the the on-line dealers, you will probably have to open an account with them and post of your paper certificates to them, also may depend on you UK status.

Set up an online account with a stockbroker or fund supermarket. They are very easy to use. I use Hargreaves Lansdown. Just google them.

If you don't like that idea, just set up a telephone account again with a stockbroker or fund supermarket. Their commissions will be more expensive than the automated online dealing but still affordable as long as you're selling a reasonable amount of shares e.g. £500 worth or more.

While in Thailand (or anywhere for that matter) I buy and sell shares using selftrade.co.uk

Safe, easy and pretty cheap - £12.50 per trade

You hold the certificate? Send it to your bank or open a broker account in the UK and mail it to them. It costs extra fees, but is not a problem. Good luck!
