AP shop in Canal Rd closing

I went there on Christmas Eve and was very surprised to see the owner packing away all the stock. He said business was down because of general price increases and he could not afford to stay open. I used him quite a lot and in particular his Chicken Pies - sad that he did not have more support, name...

Moving away from Hua Hin

HHTel wrote: Mon Dec 02, 2024 8:34 am Since moving from HH, it's quite different. Bars here stay open all night as long as they have customers. The police don't seem bothered.
I'm sure there's a lot of 'knee-jerk' reaction in HH.
So where have you moved to and why after many years here?

Re: Tax residency in Thailand and taxing overseas income

Tax is obviously a minefield so it’s easy to be wrong but my understanding (see extract below from HMRC) is that pensions earned through employment in the UK are considered taxable by the UK’s HMRC. Tax when you live abroad You may be taxed on your pension by the country where you’re resident and b...

Re: Tax residency in Thailand and taxing overseas income

I handed my FATCA duly completed with my UK HMRC UTR number to the Kasikorn main branch yesterday. I think they then sent onto the FATCACRS address mentioned in their covering email to me. So done !!

Re: Thai Driving License renewal 2019 to 2024

Of course some posters (and I don't mean you) see Thailand whilst wearing rose tinted glasses, which has to be discounted when reading a thread like this, and some poster's black cat will always be blacker than mine. This type of thread...
