Why is the transfer limit at K Bank for foreigners capped at 50,000 Baht?

Peter ****************

K-bank:

Click 3 dots 'More'

Choose 'Change transaction limits',

Choose ''My account' under Debit ATM Cards.

Now you can change e.g. spending limits etc.

Peter ****************

Two things have to be correct with K-bank: 1. Registered phone number name/passport number has to match the registered bank account. 2. You need to go to a branch for a face scan.

What is the process for translating and legalizing a driver's license in Thailand at the German embassy?

Peter ****************

@Jan *****************

Aha, okay. A bit off topic but I even read that someone only could get a 2 year drivers license because he only had 3 months left on his current year extension. Although he lived here for many many years on year extensions.

Should I use a safe entry service for my third entry into Thailand in three months?

Peter ****************

I also think y'r okay. I mean this is what a 'normal tourist' would/can do. On top of that you did not ask for a 30 day extension so far. Be sure you have the 3 proofs. (20k฿ or equivalent in cash, place to stay and onwards travel outside Thailand).

When can I apply for medical insurance with a Non O Visa in Thailand?

Peter ****************

For the non O it's not mandatory. But, of course it's always good to have one. First I would contact y'r home insurance if and how long you are covered abroad .

What should I know about the new form received during my Retirement visa extension renewal at Korat?

Peter ****************

I think correct. 4-5 years ago, I was told that it only was for Korat imm. So, seems that more imm. offices use this one.
