Re: €385 Deductible?

What a coincidence. That same video was recommended to me by YouTube today. That 385 Euro deductible is an annual deductible. However, there are insurance companies that offer an insurance with...

Re: Freezing Joint Bank Accounts on death of husband

The risk (?) is that somebody else informs the bank. You can control what you tell your bank. But you can't control what others will tell.

Re: Freezing Joint Bank Accounts on death of husband

Indeed, that is also what I have been told. There will be some delay, caused by the review and acceptance of the local will. However, that delay is much shorter than when an "overseas will" needs to...

Re: Stay in Malaysia for 6 months

1) Correct.
2) A tourist visa can indeed not be extended. There are no hard rules for when a visa run is accepted. I have heard people say that "if you stay out of Malaysia for at least one week...

Re: Jobs in The Netherlands for English speakers

Tiny correction: WO is the university level, VWO denotes the middle school level (12 ~ 18 yo) that gets you into WO.
WO = Wetenschappelijk Onderwijs
VWO = Voorbereidend Wetenschappelijk Onderwijs

Re: Transfer large sums to philippines?

Re: Is a TransferWise exchange a 'Remittance'?

A Wise account is a multi-currency account. Each currency you hold in that account is "parked" at a bank in the country of said currency. For example: if you hold USD and EUR and MYR in your Wise...

Re: Citizenship for children born to Malaysian mothers outside Malaysia

Ah, yes. I had forgotten about that. But it would be an easy way if they wanted to become Malaysian and rescind their current nationality. To be clear: I would not do so if I had the choice.

Re: Citizenship for children born to Malaysian mothers outside Malaysia
