In the overall scheme of things (bearing in mind individual circumstances) this is one of the most ridiculous statements I have seen on a tax thread - and this from someone with a highly elevated post count......(maybe try reading more....)

The original (as far as I know) 99 baht full breakfast many years ago before Simon moved and opened up Retox in Soi Lengkee....(Retox eventually folded during Covid although Lengkee closed before Soi Diana) How much is it now?

Probably the least of any worries I have and it isn't going to make a jot of difference to how I sleep...... No she isn't........

Not sure what you mean by "transfer" in this instance as AIS would not have anything to do with it. Line processes here - https://help.line.me/line/?contentId=20010395&lang=en https://guide.line.me/en/migration/ Thai bank apps you may have to go to branch to change the number you use. I don't know but would it not be easier to get a new SIM from AIS with the original number - presuming that you would also need to buy a new phone?

Well if I hadn't decided to look in General (which I only did as looking for a specific topic) I probably would not have known anything about it. It will be interesting to see if my partner is even aware of it..........

It's all part of the "CRS" process now.......where it is all laid out what the individual FI should try and get but it doesn't mandate you have to have one - yet.........

Any of these places open at 7am to serve an English breakfast? Also need to be able to park a car within 10 minutes walk or so.

Been a number of threads over the years. Obviously if they don't know that you live in Thailand (or another foreign country) then they aren't going to ask.........

I don't know the answer to your question especially as most discussions on AN have been about Thai tax residents gifting their significant others......and there have been many such instances including this one - however this - is way out of date. Gift tax law was amended in 2015/16. If you go here - https://www.rd.go.th/english/37749.html Under section 42 - So you could argue that if you were ever asked............

As long as you are not deliberately avoiding paying taxes that are due I believe the official fine is a whole 2000baht......it has been referenced on here in the past. To-date no-one has reported hearing anyone being fined - Thai or foreigner. Considering how many people have already said their tax office refused to give them a no. it seems like a pure scare tactic to try and drum up business. If you actually owe a reasonable amount then of course you should be filing......... So up to you what you should do.........

Yes my understanding it is only for newly issued policies hence my "ultimatum" mentioned in the OP.

He was lucky they didn't just charge him 5k baht like some other's have mentioned......

I second that - and I only used them for the first time last year after prevaricating for a long time and sending hard copies in the post........

Agreed. I bought a Redmi Note 8 nearly 5 years ago and after 3 months put a custom ROM on it with Android 10 as I was so hacked off with the telemetry. Persevered with various banking hacks (for a Thai bank) for a few years before conceding and buying a separate phone to use pretty much exclusively for that. I could upgrade it but why......... The "old" phone is still my daily driver. No Google or Meta and AF Wall+ stops most outgoing telemetry from the phone. Punching in the dark - probably, but makes me feel better......

Article here - https://www.bangkokpost.com/business/general/2975571/unpacking-the-new-co-pay-rule This may explain why I was suddenly told that a Thai Life Health policy I had been considering to take on to replace April Int policy would have a 30% co pay element unless I made up my mind literally within 2 days (it was a couple of weeks ago). Reading the details below the quote it is not 100% clear to me. Interesting if any other members have had this mentioned to them as have seen nothing else mentioned elsewhere. Edit - it may only be applicable to Life companies offering Health as an add on?
