I know most on here are older retirees...but for younger guys here still with parents back home... Would long-stay expats in Thailand be liable for inheritence tax from parents back home if living in Thailand over 180 dyas a year if no tax arose on the total assets received in their home country ? I mean in the UK for example - including property/cash and combined roll-over unused relief - with parent combined totals - its is £1 million tax-free to kids. £325k (Cash etc) /£175k (Property) x 2 parents = £1 million before tax comes in to the picture. It appears it is 5% IHT on total assets received for children who receive any inheritence in Thailand ? Is that correct ? If that is the case, it would be wise to clear out of Thailand under 179 days in a year with such inheritence events if you intend to stay long-term overseas ? It's a whole 2nd layer can of worms this Thai tax stuff now...getting ensnared in other taxes such as IHT.

Yes, it was called Children of Men (2006). Saw that one.

these kind of posts tad dangerous to those that don't know this forum...suicide advice etc. on a trollpost.

I think they have or are trying to bring some new rule that if you enter illegally barred from applying. So simple.

Did you try hypnotism or patches ?

I doubt the non-UK monitored vapes are as safe. Not as bad as ciggies but they have all these mystery chemicals in them that combine in the lungs. I'm so glad I stopped smoking aged 18..worst case of being out of breath after having to sprint sudenly and clothes and fingers stinking....setting money on fire for that ?

Part of Trump's reason - to control fentanyl import...it is so small vs other drugs...that it is hard to do that. Some USA university has created a fentanyl immunisation shot or some such.

crazy extortion rates by local salary numbers.

I went for the somtum.

Firsthand experience ?

Better to invest elsewhere than a UK govt. pension in the UK that it seems that they hope you just die by raising the start date ever so consistently over time and change the rules of withdrawal. There is no rationaility to raising it in the Philippines - but not in Thailand - as the cost of living in Thailand is higher over time than PI.

..and based on that...he thought her mum was needing private care as far as I read it...he was equating private care being the norm based on his dad...anyway, it's just a new guy in Thailand getting that familiar squeeze and he has had his advice to block her as its the usual B/S routine of guys with soft hearts getting worked by hookerz.

As they say, Flash in the pan...she has self-filtered as a numbskull....may be barred from benefits for life.

Which passport fiasco was that in 2014 ?

I think you should re-read it....it is implicit in what he is saying that his dad has to take out private medical insurance since he cannot access free Thai health care.

It probably started with genuine damage to a jetski and the foreigner got rattled and threw excess money at the problem with an impeding exit flight and no passport in-hand... Jetski guys realise they can get a month's income from a staged scenario...and then that scam rolled out.

Is he THAI ? Did not think so. Therefore your reply to that comment is irrelevent since it pertainted to free medical help for THAIS.

bizarre commentary as always.

famous last words....

What is the fine for being off your tits on a Pai Happy Pizza ?

Tell it to all the retiree expats in Pattata....

and ?

That would be a music stopper entrance in a gogo bar.

Was waiting for the words "cannabis" - since Thai govt. is so split personality at every turn.

Aren't most guys over 65 going to Pattaya hoping to die through excess sex ? So it does not really matter ?
