Thai retirement funds cannot be touched under any circumstances.
That's assuming you spend 65000 per month. I dont. If you spend less than that then it will accumulate over time in your Thai account just the same.

“Golden Boy” and Ancient Statue Set to Return to Thailand

Blues harmonica lessons in Bangkok?
Thanks. I know Hoo blues. A great band. The only risk is that good players don't necessarily make good teachers so I prefer a harp teacher if possible although I didn't specify that

Bank transfer after 1st Jan or now?
It seems the easiest and least complicated for the tax dept. The onus then rests on the banks to ask questions and the recipient to answer honestly, just as with any tax return, as to the origin of the expat transfers using a simple questionaire, along with visa status, home country etc. I was recently asked such questions for no apparent reason by my Thai bank. The answers to the questions can then be automatically sent to the tax dept.
