What legal protections should I consider when funding a home renovation in Isaan for a partner?

It’s hardly a castle Klaus but it is comfortable. You’re welcome to visit anytime. The southern dungeon is normally free this time of year. Whilst the view is not great the host is lovely and the Grey Goose flows freely. 😃

foreigner that believes a thai woman asking money for whatever reason. If you have no financial issues than this lost could be a good lesson for you, if that money means a lot to you then buddy, listen to the advice of the all the folks who wrote under your post

@George’s *********************

We have our doubts, so we'll be investigating

@Andy ***********

There’s a Facebook page for the Westerners whose choice of residence is in Isaan. All of them would differ your opinion.

I’m from Thailand, upon relocating back I’ve search all part of the country for my retirement home and Isaan was my choice. Not because I was born there, my retirement home is not the city I’m from and non of my friends or relatives are there.

@Sasi ***********

Of course. Everyone's viewpoint is different. I think you'll find more westerners living in places like Bangkok, Samui, Phuket, Chiang Mai than you will in Isaan. Most of those living in Isaan have gone there specifically for a woman, usually much younger with little education and little career prospects. They build big homes to cater for the family of their young wives. There's very small expat community in Isaan other than the larger cities, and even those are sparse. Let's be honest, the airlines, hotel organisations, travel agents etc are selling places like Phuket, Samui, Phi Phi, Chiang Mai, Bangkok etc. You don't find many glossy brochures on Sisaket and Ubon Ratchathani. Yes if people want "quiet and relaxing" watching the sunset over the rice fields, and watching the buffalos come home, it's the place to be. But do people really want this every day for rest of their lives?

very likely but very rare.

@Patrick *******

F**k. Just because your relationship failed does not mean OP's will

@Phil *****

Common Sense 101. If a girl is requiring 1,000,000 Baht, it's not a very good relationship. May be a business transaction, and not a good one. Common Sense 101.

@Phil *****

I am in Bangkok next week can we meet?

@Aaron ******

but she didn't ask. He's an adult and if he wants to do then so be it. My post is encouragement. Yep many many farming's have come a cropper

@Phil *****

He asked for advice and I gave it to him. If he didn't want realistic advice, don't post on SM.

@Aaron ******

yep Many of my friends have suffered this fate.

I haven't and gave my advice too

@Jo *********

silly person. For what it is worth I am sorry that you are sad and lonely. I am sure you will find someone to love you too, but you should really stop cultivating all of this hate. It's not a good look and it stays inside you making poison that people can detect in your pheromones.

@Ian ********

Your mother, sisters and yourself are not attractive, yes I am. By the way, I went to 7 countries in South East Asia, I found out the majority of thise women Passeport bros are simping for are NOT attractive. I swear. I even saw a few men who are a little attractive to very unattractive women. You are too blind emotionally to see if I am attractive. I have miror in my house and all my life, if there is obe thing people never told me is that I am not attractive. They always say thst I am beautiful, and attractive, and I know that also. I was able to see your picture, you are very unattractive man. I realized that tge most ugly people are always the ones calling otgrr unattractive 🤣. I am blessed at this level. Now, tell me about your intelligence. I know physically, you are ugly, but I believe you are also ugly inside🤣

@Wallace *****

Of course. I know what else they offer HIV

@Jo *********

you’re sick. Get help.

@Wallace *****

Go test yourself. You will surely find out you have at least 4 stds

@George’s *********************

come on man! Sister in law is great! She comes with a bunch of kids so you don't need to do any work! She might be a little lazy, but at least she can't cook!

@To**

- a little bit more complex than that but if no tax return then no tax for now at least …

The govt are not set up for this at all ….

@Andy **********

it’s not really more complex than that. And enforcement will be retroactive.

But yes, the govt is not at all set up for this yet

@To**

—- it is more complicated than just - “all monies remitted into Thailand after 1st Jan “ being subject to tax … is that what you meant ?? That is not the case

@Andy **********

it never is that simple. But the fact remains that all monies remitted into Thailand after that date are taxable under Thai law to Thai tax residents.

If and when those taxes will be payable depends more on individual circumstances

@George’s *********************

your UK state pension is likely taxed at home. The tax treaty prevents dual taxation, so your tax in UK would count as credit here
