Norvabc Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Hi all a little advice needed. The Wife and I are thinking of moving to Thailand permanently in the next few months. My wife has been here since 2012 on a 10 year UK visa renewed every 2.5 years, the last one before she gets her Leave to remain but she has had enough of not seeing an English speaking person in the streets often and wants to live in a warmer climate under these Plandemic rules. Now the question is, will I pay tax on used house hold items I shipped, as I will initially enter on a Non O visa and later when the house is sold go for the retirement visa. Also having searched the net I cannot find any reference to leaving the UK permanently under Covid Flu Tier3 rules. Any advice on this appreciated Failing that it's a 30 ft. Sloop cheers all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I assume you wife is Thai. She can ship your household goods duty free. If shipped in your name you will have to pay duty on them. Info is here: http://www.customs.go.th/cont_strc_simple.php?ini_content=individual_F01_160426_01&ini_menu=menu_individual_submenu_02&lang=en&left_menu=menu_individual_submenu_02_160421_01 If your wife is Thai you can apply for a single entry non-o visa at the embassy to qualify for a certificate of entry that will allow you to enter the country. At this time boty you and your wife will have to go into the 14 day quarantine when you arrive.

brewsterbudgen Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Apologies if this is hijacking the thread, but what would the OP's wife's position (assuming she is Thai) should they decide to return to the UK after a few years of living in Thailand? Can she resume her path to LTR, or would she have to start the whole process again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norvabc Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hi yes if she is out of the country i think it is 3 months that's it start all over again. Something we would have to think seriously about. But she seems to have had enough. Seeing the hospitals empty nurses laid off and the news saying they are overwelmed with covid case she is scared of the lies she sees and want out.

simon43 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 [quote] ...she is scared of the lies she sees and want out. [/quote] ... and what about the lies in Thailand? My comment is relevant to this thread. The grass is not always greener.... By returning to Thailand and letting her LTR expire, she may be moving from the frying pan and into the fire.

Well she is Thai and knows the lies there rather than in a land that was supposed to be a World leader in Honesty. Seeing the British Police on knee to BLM then beating the S***t out of patriots is not what she expected. No to mention talking to here family every day eating out and socialising and her having to stay indoors due to the Fear that is not rampant in Thailand is her reason.
