Changing New Passport Number At Bank
Take your OLD and NEW PP to the bank, should take around 5 minutes, give or take. Correct PP number prevents future problems with the bank. If joint account, the other person might need to go also. -

Changing New Passport Number At Bank
With Krungsri you can update your passport number easily enough, however I later discovered that, just like you I couldn't activate my phone App when I replaced it. Long story short, it turned out that changing your passport number on the bank's main database does not alter the database used by the mobile apps. I had to sign a request at bank authorizing them to re-download my mobile app data from the main database. It took about 3 hours in total to get my app working again. New passport coming up in 3 years, but at least I know what to do now. -

Thailand Parliament rejects pornography and sex toy legalisation
You guys are so naive. Illegal yet in demand industries are prime money spinning ventures for police and friends. Legalizing gambling, sex related industries, undocumented workers, to name a few, will deprive them of high earnings via brown envelopes. That’s why they’ll fight tooth and nail to keep them this way. -

And what pray are these 'limited circumstances' ? Anyone wanabee Walter Mitty who tried that on me would find themselves in Court. Not that they would ever have any cause to try it. -

Australian Aged Pension - Income Taxes in Thailand
Yes mate - my spreadsheet is a little complicated. But the basics are that you add all your and your wife's incomes together (100K + 0 = 100K) Then you add all your combined TEDAs together (including the first 150K each). I only included the basic TEDA items - there are more available but I did not bother because our total TEDA is above our total income. I did not count withdrawals from my Super as that is retirement savings built up over many decades - it is not income. Note that I only counted the Age Pension payments for the exercise - I believe the Age Pension is not taxable income in Thailand. But it is good to know that even if it was, I dont have to pay any income taxes. And I have received advice from a tax accountant/law firm that under the current TRD lodgement rules, because I dont have to pay any income taxes, then I dont have to lodge a tax return (30+ million Thais also do not lodge tax returns). I was 'talking' to a bloke the other day and he reckoned that if TRD tries to enforce the lodgement of income taxes by all non-working Expats they will be in breach of many legal and human rights rules (that would not stop them of course). But there would be an outcry if they dont also force all Thais to also lodge a tax return too - but that would mean their immediate crash in the polls and a total destruction at the next election. Like myself, he reckons the best thing to do is not go out on the water with a small boat - avoid having anything to do with the TRD 'shark' for a few years at least. If you dont have to lodge a tax return by your own calculations, including DTA interpretations, then IMO dont. The TRD system is a self assessment system - they dont proactively calculate people's taxes like those in the West do. They may ask one day 'why you no lodge return' so always keep your records and calculations. -

Digital wallet as social engineering
Interesting link here shows limits by country - no idea how up to date it is. https://www.europe-consommateurs.eu/en/shopping-internet/cash-payment-limitations.html Looks like France, Greece, Italy and Belgium and others on that low list you mention which surprised me. However from "scanning that I don't agree with "most countries" when buying a used car. Just to be clear I am not in favour of CBDC's and very much in favour of maintaining cash as an option. Although I value my personal privacy however, I would still choose to use a bank transfer or credit card for larger amounts. -

Brutal assault on Canadian raises serious questions about tourist safety in Pattaya
Every Bouncer in the UK has to show a pass on there clothes no pass no door work. They have to attend a course payed by themselves to obtain a pass. So I disagree with your statement regarding thai security. Like it or not Malcolm bouncers / Door security Staff in Thailand Commit assaults and are immune from arrests. How many have been out forward in front of a camera charged with beating Tourist's ? -
