It's the rip off of the year, banana boat arrival ahoy! 5000 baht is the cost to an agent.

but the start period is Jan 2024 if it goes ahead. I think they will be many problems because if they expect us to pay taxes and still double charges for entries as falung to national parks and a whole host of other issues like importing things, it doesn't really stack up and they're going to have to start handing out some rights and rethink the retirement situation here and status of people. I foresee much back and forth an arguments on the matter and now having been in panic mode for a while, I'm relaxing and taking it with a pinch of salt

@Janelle ****

true

@Janelle ****

, you need to get up to speed and see the potential new law being discussed. People who spend more than 180 days here a year are considered tax residence and the taxes will be based on remission of funds to Thailand

South Africa has rural scenes with communal facilities in some places

@Stuart ********

, correcto, apologies. Is 10,000 Euros, approximately, the maximum suggested amount to send from Wise to Thailand? Thanks

@Stuart ********

, tax liability on that if a tax resident with more than 180 days here in 2024.....and it will be a large debt

Wise and careful if you are a tax resident in Thailand ....m

, prices vary a bit but that's pretty accurate for competent. Some slightly cheaper in Pattaya I see

quite possibly, no issues her. But the O visa and retirement extension will cost her in and around 40,000 baht.. ..15 months total......thereafter, 14 to 16,000 yearly for renewal. Jus' saying. .... Peace of mind for sure and seamless.
