Hi suzanna its a great place to retire. Many of clients are retired here. You will find plenty of things to get involved with as an expat. Join Internations and then you can go to a variety of things and build your social circle.

As for it being safe you'll have no problem at all. Ok I've only lived in pattaya and 4 years now in Bangkok but Bangkok is honestly such a safe city to walk around. Of course you wouldn't go wandering around the shanti set ups but you'll not be anywhere near them and to be honest and you can only speak as you find but the thais are such genuine and nice you'll love it.

No as has been said you are not able to deal with thai companies full stop. Where you bill them from is irrelevant. Its illegal to work here on a dtv that's the important part the billing has no relevance whatsoever unfortunately

These days who knows. Seems to be getting stricter and im guessing depends on the outcome of the PMs ordered review on the visa exempt.

So no one knows but I would suggest an onward flight will make it more likely you'll be ok. Use will cost you $16 and is valid for 48 hours as an actual ticket

Hi Sean. Depending on what model of iPhone you have you should be able to get an esim here in Thailand so effectively you can keep both then.

Hi Dan. It depends on where the assets are and also your marital situation. Its a lot more complicated than these albeit well meant comments are. I'm a 26 year qualified financial adviser who lives and works here so I do actually know what im talking about. Happy to have a chat offline to point you in the right direction

Hi yvette firstly international health insurance is definitely the best option. It is more expensive thats for sure but there are a few major differences etc.

Happy to chat with you if you want to dm me as it does depend on the clients also. But dont fall for the ones on here who are only ties to thai insurers .

Hi Tony. You go to belle grand shoppe on the 1st floor to vfs global they're the ones who deal with it.

It took 22 days from mine leaving my hand to picking up my new one. Of course you have no chance of a few days it's goes off to the UK.

They'll take yoir payment it's roughly 24 hours after you've done it.

Definitely make an appointment to get it done there
