Hello, somebody could explain me the procedure for applying for the 5-year Privilege Card? Is the payment made after submitting the documentation on the Thai eVisa website, or at the time of submission?” Thanks in advance for your réponses.

Looking for a reliable, affordable health insurance provider in Thailand for relocation (3 children ages 1–3 + one adult, 34).

Hey some changes coming to WISE

- you can now link your Thai bank account to wise

- you can now order a wise card sent to you in thailand

- they are now fixing / adding Scan pay - Prompt Pay to wise

However in may you can NOT use wise card to withdraw cash from ATM anymore inside thailand

Regulatory changes made by Bank of Thailand

I suggest reading the link to become familiar with the changes

From my understanding this is for accounts registered in thailand accounts registered else where may not be affected this will be interesting to see either way

Hi everyone! 😊 Has anyone here ever applied for a Thai Police Clearance Certificate while living overseas? I’ve relocated from Thailand and I’m now applying for my iQTS, and I need to get this document. I read that you can either do it yourself or have an authorized representative help you with the process. I saw that using an authorized representative would cost at least 16,000 THB . Does anyone know of a cheaper service or another way to do it? And if I do choose to do it myself, will it be successful?

Any tips, experiences, or recommended services would be *so* appreciated! Thank you!

I'm looking for a company that can handle my whole DTV application and the whole process. I'm planning on moving to Thailand in May or June. Please message me if you can help... Yes, I have reached out to a few in the past and never got any response.
