Planning on moving to Thailand with the family from the Philippines. We will ship most of our kitchen appliances etc. I would like to ship my record album collection ~3500 albums, based on what I have been reading, I would be paying hefty taxes and duty fees??? Does anybody have any information on shipping bulk items such as this? (these are personal use, not for resale)
I've noticed that more and more people are getting rejected for soft powers in vietnam while my facebook page is getting flooded of sponsored pages that for 40-90k they offer a dtv all inclusive. All they claimed you need to do is to go to vietnam and take a pics of your entry stamp. I'm not talking about a single page, but dozens of sponsored pages offering the same. Are those scams?
is there anyone get face scan in scb bank?When we go to bank they ask current visa or not?I am asking because i dont want to update anything.But in the future i can change my phone so i need face scan.Anyone knows they want NON O visa or not for update.Btw i opened my account 13 years ago with my ED visa.But now have tourist visa.
I have the DTV visa. I'm trying to open a TrueMoney account on my phone.
It seems that TrueMoney is blocking foreigner registrations. When you click "scan passport" it fails. But when you click "scan local Thai ID card" it works without issue.
I just had my DTV revoked . originally it was paid for by my employer but I stopped working for them and they wrote to embassy to inform them I’m no longer contracted to them & had my DTV revoked
Hi, one issue which I think no one faced yet. I went to bkk immigration for the 90 day report, I went on 91 or 92 day, as I heard we can go till 1 week after. Also, at this time I was going home on 96th or 97th day, and had my flight booked, so was staying in bkk in hotels for 1 day at a time as left my condo, I got tm 30 from the hotel I was staying at, and they give me the tm30 for 1 day, the immigration supervisor said they cannot do that( i understood they wanted atleast 8-9 days stay more), and asked me no problem you go back since your going home within 7 days after 90 days. Wasted my whole day, but i couldn't do anything after that and came back home. So question is what should I do now, and when I re enter or apply for driving next time can there be a problem, if yes what's the solution
