Not entirely true.
Exchange side is operated from Philippines.

If you want to maximise it, probably US cards will work best. Just take the ones without foreign transaction fees. You may want to get an ITIN first to start.
Laos is back on the FACF greylist again. Expect tighter rules for account opening and banking coming soon.
how to get that ITIN any quick way to get that ? and does it has any tax complications where I live (EU)?daniels27 said:

Quickest is probably fiverr. Cheapest is to file a tax return yourself by mail. There are no tax consequences anywhere.mytoofood said:

This is why normie lounges have become insufferable lately. People to whom paying for business class is expensive are taking up space and making noise in the once peaceful lounges, because companies like Priority Pass are throwing lounge access at anyone. Thankfully some airports and airlines are investing in first class lounges, which are a little bit better at least.
For getting a foreign credit card ”” have a look at wealth management banking options in Mauritius, if you haven't already. They're often happy to issue EUR/USD credit cards with flexible limits and reasonable fees once you deposit around 10-100,000 EUR/USD. Pretty flexible. Loyalty schemes usually aren't as attractive as many of the cards mentioned here but there aren't a lot of realistic options for non-residents.
For that route, I'd just take a train (first class). Sure, it's around 2.5””3 hours but that's from city center to city center. No wasting time going to airport and going through airport security and so on.
