@Tony ******

my witness had to physically come to the immigration office, they are asked some questions by the IO. How long they know you etc.

It’s the immigration officer processing your extension.

Try reading the group’s last two days of comments to catch up on the news regarding rule changes….

As a Thai tax resident any UK dividend income is paid out tax free. Find yourself a decent brokerage, I use low fee Degiro, and pick funds or shares based on your risk tolerance that have historically paid decent dividends. Aim to generate stable passive dividend income to supplement your pension. Avoid anything that has a platform or fund management fees.

not correct. UK dividends are not taxable by the UK if you are not a UK tax resident. Source: HMRC manual INTM0

@Michael *******

not a service provided by the British Embassy unfortunately.

There are no re-entry requirements with the DTV, you have a 5 year multiple entry tourist visa.

Resets on exit.

Yeah that’s not going to work…

German efficiency is an oxymoron.
