Hi all, a question on behalf of my dad who's living in Thailand on a UK state pension.

He has come back to the UK after 6 years in Thailand and plans to stay here for around 6 to 8 months. He has let his residents visa expire in Thailand before coming back home to England.

If and when he returns to Thailand, will he permanently keep his pension increase that he will have received for over 6 months here?

Hi. I’m trying to get my marriage visa

Extension. But how can I prove my

Uk state pension and my other

Pension to them. To show I have

More than 40.000 baht each month.

Now the uk embassy in Bangkok has

Stopped issuing a confirmation

Letter. Has anyone got any idea.

Quick question for any UK expat who are receiving state pension in Thailand, is it correct if you ask the UK state pension department to send your pension direct to a Thai bank account, you will lose any uplifts to the UK state pensions in the future.

Immigration says it’s better to get letter from British embassy to prove I’m getting state pension, I phoned British embassy and asked could they give me a letter, The Woman on the phone said they have nothing to do with pensions.

Any ideas what to do now

Please could another Brit who claims state pension, explain how the system works, when long in Thailand.
