Well each to there own in what one believes and does but in my case paying approx 7000 THB each year to Thailand and getting back approximately 90000 THB each year from the Tax Authorities in Norway seems to me that I am a very bright bulb.

My UK Pensions are already included together with my Norwegian Pensions and subject to tax in Thailand

I pay tax in Norway and Thailand

No earned income in Thailand I only recieve pension from UK abd Norway

I provided them with copies of the Will, Death Certificates, and all documents showing transfer of the money from the COOP in the UK who handled the Will to Norway and then to Thailand via WISE. I also gave them a copy of the Thai Law Document stating that Inheritance money is tax free up to about 100 million cant remember the exact figure. Will payments from the COOP in the UK, Danske Bank Norway and WISE were shown as Inheritance. Evreything was shown as International Transfer on my Bangkok Bank Statements so I had to specially mark the three transfers that were Inheritance. Quote

Yes I pay approx 7000 each year and it will be more next year

No fortunately not I provided them with copies of the Will, Death Certificates, and all documents showing transfer of the money from the COOP in the UK who handled the Will to Norway and then to Thailand via WISE. I also gave them a copy of the Thai Law Document stating that Inheritance money is tax free up to about 100 million cant remember the exact figure. Evreything was shown as International Transfer on my Bank Statements so I had to specially mark the three transfers that were Inheritance.

Hello thats great new for you I still recommend if you have not already done so that you contact the Thai Tax authorities and get them to confirm whether you need to fill out a Thai Tax form or not just to be on the safe side. I get the Thai Tax Office to fill out my Tax Return every year and I also get a Certificate of Residence and Income Tax Paid Certificate from them (free of charge) and I use a Scandinavian Tax Law Office in Thailand to send these in to the Norwegian Tax Authirities and it functions great. Best wishes

No because of tax agreements berween Norway and Thailand I get all tax paid on my pensions in Norway back. My taxable income in Norway is reduced by my taxable income in. Thailand and all in accordancw with the rax agreements between Thailand and Norway.

Hello all Members I just want to inform that today I visited the Udonthani Tax Office with my tax papers for 2024 and everything went perfectly I declared my Pension Income also Inheritance money sent to Thailand last year. I receive pensions from the UK and Norway and normally I get back all the tax that I have paid on my Norwegian Pensions due to Tax Agreements, the UK Pensions are below the tax free threshold. To celebrate we just had a lovely meal in an MK Restaurant. Good luck to all members with your Tax Returns

I am a British Citizen retired and living in Thailand. Do any members know if there has been any more clarity from the Thai Revenue Department or other trustworthy sources related to tax on Inheritance remitted to Thailand in 2024. I received Inheritance money ftom the UK earlier this year and some of this money has been remitted to my Bank in Thailand as an overseas transaction. I pay tax in Thailand on my pensions and get all tax back paid in Norway due to a Double Taxation Agreement. Many thanks in advance for any help.

I pay tax to both Norway and Thailand and since October 2023 I have sent some monetary gifts to my wifes account from abroad very, very much under the 20 million THB limit per year. Had I known about this prior to October 2023 then I would have done this before. Before any GIFT TO WIFE amounts were sent we made a written signed and witnessed agreement about this basically confirming the Gifts could not be used in any way for benefit to me. My wife has used the money to buy GSB Lottery Ticketss in her name, buy gold and given money to her family. Good luck to all Members regarding Tax.

In case anyone receives UK Pension from the Legal & General they have just confirmed to me that these Pensions can be paid into a WISE account.

I have now opened a WISE Account using the Mobile App. the Website Wise version did not work for me as it was impossible to verify my Passport Photo Page, etc. I had to transfer 880 THB into the account which i did using my Bangkok Bank Credit Card without any problems.

Many thanks Chickenlegs I get my UK pensions fron the DWP and Legal & General do you have any experience with these UK Pensions being sent into a WISE Account. I guess the DWP is the same as a State Pension and if so fhen no problem? Left the UK in 1980 so have lost touch with most things.
