John *********

thanks Rok. I was a bit unsure about the word ‘remittance’

My money is paid after tax into my UK bank account. It wont be transferred into a thai bank account. As I am working in Thailand i will have to get the DTV VISA. And that means I dont open a thai bank account.

I just draw money from an ATM.
