I need a temporary address by Teton
Can someone give me advise on getting a temporary address in Bangkok. I have a non-O visa and need to open a bank account. Without an address I can’t do it. Problem is I plan to live outside of Bangkok, probably Surat Thani, but I ...
There is no way to get a “temporary address”. You will have to sign a lease for the Bangkok area. Basically you will have to pay. Now if you are going to live outside of Bangkok my guess is you will have to pay for 2 places. ... Read More
Managing mailboxes or PO boxes in Thailand by Cheryl
Hello everyone, Something as simple as receiving mail can become a whole new experience when you settle in Thailand as an expat. Mailing management can indeed be different from what you are used to. In order to help other expats and soon-to-be ...
I use US Global mail from the States. I log in and it shows me my mail. I can have them open and scan it then I can read it or download it. Any other mail that I don’t want I have them delete it. It’s that simple for me. They can ship to ... Read More

@mpmilestogo I hadn’t talked to you in a while and happy to know you’re ok. I’ve been in Thailand for 16 months now. Sold my house and got my divorce finalized 13 days after I got here on June 7 2024. Read More

Access to my Social Security while in Cambodia by TheDudeAbides
Hello everyone, I'm Kris from Stateside and am in the early stages of planning a Cambodian retirement, probably in Siem Reap.My first question is how would you recommend I best access my Social Security while in Cambodia?Thank you for your time.
@cbalto22 Wrong! That’s only if you’re drawing social security as a dependent. The US does pay SS to different countries except for some. As a dependent and you’re out of the country for more than 30 days, yes then it will stop ... Read More

Xbox One video game consoles by Viamund
GreetingsGuys/GalsI am moving to Phnom Penh and I want to know if I can use my Xbox One and my old original Xbox? I was told that perhaps with a power adapter but that also, they should be used temporarily. I see Xbox One does not list Cambodia as a ...
Honestly I wouldn’t even bring it. You won’t be able to play anyone online. I’m giving mine away before I leave and buying a PlayStation 5 once I get there. PlayStation is highly supported in SE Asia. Read More
Watching US sports in Cambodia by PaulR1205
Hey guys, besides having to get a VPN which I already use, how do you guys watch the NFL or any US sports within Cambodia?
@JoeKhmer Thanks Joe. So basically be prepared to get some sleep if I’m going to get up and drink beer at 11 at night to get prepared for a 12 or 1am game. That will be brand new for me, as well as a little exciting. Read More

Watching US sports in Cambodia by PaulR1205
Hey guys, besides having to get a VPN which I already use, how do you guys watch the NFL or any US sports within Cambodia?
I didn't want to start a new topic as this is as close of a topic to what I need to ask. When NFL is shown in the US, how is that sport broadcasted in Cambodia? Like, if it's shown at 1pm Eastern time, I'm sure it won't be shown at 12am Cambodia ... Read More
