Is it worth getting a motorcycle license in Thailand as an expat?

Nigel ********

Depends how long you’re stopping for.

If you don’t have a full UK motorcycle license then you will have to sit the Thai exams.

So it depends if the time and cost are worth it for you.

What are the requirements and steps to obtain a UK visa for my girlfriend while staying in Hua Hin?

Nigel ********

U.K. visas are handled by VFS global

Check their website, it will tell you what you need to submit.

I think you can pay for them to check documents etc.

No point using an agent, as they can only do the same.

What are the requirements for applying for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) for Thailand?

Nigel ********

You were told to get a visa 10 days ago.

If you don’t want to fulfil the requirements then I suggest you find a different country to spend your time in.

Will my UK pension be affected if I register as a tax resident in Thailand?

Nigel ********

Just because you have a Thai tax ID doesn’t mean you are liable for any payment.

And yes HMRC will know you are not living in the U.K. because it will be on the system that you have left and not returned.
