yes remit money from overseas but it needs to go into an account. That's what the lawyers told me when I purchased a condo.

Why was my certificate of residence denied despite having a NON-O visa?

Ryan ************

Just use an agent, 3500thb.

I waited 3 weeks for my certificate to be sent to me and it only lasts 30 days. The agent will get you the certificate on the same day giving you 30 days to use it

What is the easiest process for an expat to open a company in Thailand and use it to buy a house while complying with the law?

Ryan ************

There is no safe, legal way around this unless you have a Thai wife that can be on the title deeds. I think there has been a big crackdown on this on Phuket in recent months and the rest of Thailand could be next. Really wouldnt risk it unless you can afford to lose the house
