It was the comment " 30 days and one use only" that confuses me. Does that mean I can get a Residency Certificate only once and that I must use that for all the things it is likely to be needed for in that 30 days? Cheers.
Hi Mark. So, if for example I needed to get a residency certificate for a driving licence let's say and I get one for that purpose and then 3 months later I want to buy a new motorcycle, can I get another residency certificate to enable that? Cheers.
At the very least, the weather is getting better there but that's small compensation for the rest of the stuff that's going off and yes the cost of living is a real killer. My sister in the UK states the same but foodstuff from NZ in the UK are better quality and cheaper than what they are in NZ and they are transported to the other side of the world....so what's all that about? Even EVs have got to pay RUCs now too. The government is driving people out of the country in droves, I wonder who is orchestrating it and why?
Yes, many Kiwis are leaving and I know of some very unhappy people remaining behind. I agree with every reason you have for being here in Pattaya. I get arthritis too but can buy medication here at my local pharmacy and don't have to wait 3-4 weeks before I can see a doctor like I do in NZ. I should have moved here years before I did!
I'm from NZ too and have a small apartment. NZ is incredibly expensive now and I can live happily for a month here on what I carefully spent a week over there. Pattaya is indeed paradise!
