Thanks! I have been in touch with them a LOT, but these are the questions that they aren't super specific about.

BOI is super hard to set up. I'm sure they're tired of me. LOL

Yes. For experts, but Not the same work permit. BOI offers unlimited foreigners with no Thai requirement for the first 4 years. It can also be 100% foreign owned.

So, t's not a standard work permit. It will be the digital variety from what I understand.

There is no "easy" way to do any kind of business in Thailand. LOL.

My husband and I managed to open an account ourselves when we still spoke no Thai. It was hard. Keep going to different branches until you can find one that will.

Awesome! Our 9 kitties are too, but we had to install an aircon unit in our main room. <3

Unless your cat is strictly indoors in Thailand, they will be in danger. Street dogs are everywhere, as well as snakes and other predators. In the past 3 years, we've had 6 cobras in our garden.

If he is strictly indoors, you will need to find a house with aircon in the living area, because you won't be able to open windows/doors.

We have 9 cats here and have been through the learning curve.

Best of luck!

I'm a cat person and heard what I swore was a kitten! I tracked the sound through a swamp (in flip flops), and found it was a medium sized monitor lizard. Lol. Scared me to death.

Apparently, they sound exactly like kittens!! Mating call perhaps?

My husband and I have been asked on several occasions. (pre covid)

Best of luck!! I have not used it, but my daughter has. I hope it works for you!

Yes. It is serious. Burning season is 3 months out of the year, and most of our expat friends leave for those three months. Aside from that, the rest of the year isn't that great either.

Really cool place, but the air isn't.
