I wonder if TAGTHAI is catching on? I’ve mentioned it to some visitors and they never heard of it. Seems like a good option

Kevin ******

Yes though I am referencing POS terminals where I believe it says home currency or Thai Baht (always pick Thai Baht). On ATMs it says with or without conversion, as you say. Same principle.

Kevin ******

You can use a foreign-issued credit card, but check whether it has foreign transaction fees. Also, if the terminal asks whether to pay in your home currency or in Thai Baht, always choose Thai Baht, otherwise, you’ll likely get a worse exchange rate.

Speaking from my experience in Thailand (and other countries), the notary must see the original document to confirm authenticity.

What type of visa do I need to explore and potentially retire in Chiang Mai, Thailand?

Kevin ******

If you are coming to check out Chiang Mai, you can enter Thailand for up to 60 days without applying for a visa beforehand. It’s a longer answer if you decide you want to live and retire here as more variables come into play.
