Possibly, he may have been registered at that address at some point, so in checking for over-stayers, the last known address of him or even his Thai wife if the property is registered to her in any way would be the obvious starting point.

I tried to apply for combination method last year as I was a couple of 00 short one month out of 12 (but well over 1 million on average over 12 month period, but irrelevant), and the IO refused to accept the combination method. He said either minimum 65k a month (no exceptions) OR 800k. This was at Chiang Mai.

First class insurance on any motorcycle covers accidents, as does accident insurance. As does many travel insurance policies if someone has a valid licence. Equally, if the accident was the other driver's fault, then the should be paying out as should their insurance

What you are failing to take into account is that those of us who live here will be treated as tourists, so what benefit do we get? There is no indication that those on non immigrant visas etc will be excluded from this, so what's your response to that?

The pink card specifically says that it is for Non-Thai Nationals so that's not really a good test as the card proves that you aren't Thai Saying that, from personal experience, there have been a number of places where I have qualified for the 'Thai' entry price with a pink ID card (and where not even a Work Permit will suffice)

If you are living long term in Thailand, you really should get a yellow book (and pink card that follows) as there are a number of benefits, not all of which are about using at a national park or avoiding needing a certificate of residence etc. You are taken (a bit) more seriously as someone who is a long-term resident rather than just (for example) a long stay tourist. I used my pink card only this week to register for my booster, which saved having to get my passport out etc. and also many registrations require a 13 digit ID number which you get. I also registered my phone with my Thai ID number, which means I no longer need to update if I change my passport number. Lots of benefits for the (usually) small number of hoops you need to jump through to get one

I transferred over 1 m baht last year in total, but one month was below 65k, and Chiang Mai office wouldn't accept either the total or an average for the income method for retirement purposes.

Do online, and then can do from anywhere

HRV is a lot smaller and less comfortable if you're used to a CRV. The Everest is a climb-into vehicle as basically a booted version of the Ford Ranger. The CX5 is equivalent to the CRV but the brand isn't seen as good as Honda so there don't seem to be as many of them. Has the CX8 been released now? The new Toyota Cross looks interesting and worth a look (particularly if you don't mind the lack of AWD). The MG HS is competitively priced, but not used older technology and has more questionable build quality than Honda from some reports (Chinese built?) PS I have an 11 year old CRV and think that they are a great platform and very reliable. Am sure that the newer models are even better

Its not a Thai ID number. I had one already (Pink card and yellow book) and the ID number for the vaccination isn't the same as my Thai ID number. As a matter of note, numbers starting with 6 are for foreigners who have permanent residency.

Try sending a power of attorney specifically for the purpose that you are trying to achieve (in this case, in connection with your bank account number xxxx) along with a signed copy of your documentation (current passbook, passport, address details etc.) along with a covering letter addressed to the bank explaining that you are abroad at the moment (with proof) and that they can call to verify, which in theory should be sufficient

My local garage only recommends the front facing cameras as he has had a lot of issues with dual rear and front (although I would prefer both to be honest). I had two models of rear and front facing cameras (can't remember the brand, but not a cheap make) and both had to be repaired and ended up replacing them with front facing only

Quite a useful article (in English) from Malaysia www.carlist.my/news/ad-all-you-need-to-know-before-choosing-the-right-window-film-for-your-vehicle-63962/63962/

I would second that. I had a Thai friend help me get my car tinted when I first came here, and recommended the same level of tint that she had in her car. After a few weeks, I went back to the shop to get it removed and replaced with the lightest tint that they could do. I could barely see out at night (in my 50s, so not too decrepit, yet) and thought it was really dangerous, particularly along mountain roads at nights, without a lot of street lighting. It is not surprising that there are so many accidents with the level of tint that many Thais have in their cars. I had the windscreen replaced, although sometimes at night, I wind-down the windows when coming out of a junction, so not ideal (particularly when raining). Get the lightest tint you can have is my recommendation. Don't judge the tint on daytime driving, which encourages a far darker tint than is safe. For reference, Malaysia permits 70% front, 50% side and 30% for rear which seems sensible

You might be able to fly to U Tapao from CNX with Nok Air, from where, a taxi is only something like 1000 baht, although the cost of the flights is somewhat astronomical at the moment, so what you'll gain one way, you'll lose another and cost wise, it may end up the same as a private taxi from CM to BKK
