When you get the DTV - is it simple to rent an apartment - I heard they require bunch of stuff that some are hard to obtain like a bank account.

Anyone have experience with this would be greatly appreciated

I will be eligible for my mention in May next year to considering where I want to live for rest of my retirement. Looking at 2 options-Australia as I've travelled there a lot or Thailand which I've heard a lot about.

I am NZ citizen born in NZ. How difficult to get a Visa-what kind of Visa would I need to be able to live there & how much would it cost & where would I apply?

I can see that I could probably rent an apartment for 10,000 THB per month roughly but what about all the other expenses-what does it cost you to live there per month-power/internet/insurance/I would have a motorcycle to get around so fuel/eating out (as apartments generally have no cooking facilities). Do you need medical insurance? Doctor?

If you want to meet someone around your age to get married how sincere are they-loyal, or are they jsut after your money? Where do you start?

Basically I would just want to be able to afford to live comfortably with tidy apartment maybe Hua Hin, meet someone nice & do some touring around the country & occasionally go on an overseas trip-provided it's affordable. It sounds like maybe some people make it happen but are they relying on extra savings or investments to survive or can they manage on their pension as obviously you can't work on your visa over there ,whereas in Australia I would probably keep working doing what I'm doing in NZ.

Hello,

Will Jomtien Immigration allow a renter to do an in person TM30 and if so would it require a proxy? I am NOT asking who is supposed to do the registration. I just want to know if it is allowed.

Hello,

If i open a Bangkok Bank account is there a annual fee for the account?

tm30 Bangkok question

My rental agent filled tm30 around 1 year ago. For that time I mostly stayed in Bangkok. Now I am on holiday and using a few different hotels in other provinces, so probably some tm30 could be filled for me.

My question is, if my rental condo is in Bangkok and I had tm30 there, and now travelled to a different province (and tm30 was filled in a different province), should I ask my rental agent again to file tm30 for me after I will be back in Bangkok?

My husband and I are both 60, we want to sell our house in uk and buy a villa in Thailand, is this possible, I read conflicting comments.
