Seems Guy Richie is stuck in this gangster genre.
-
Still think Appaloosa with Ed Harris from 2008 is one one of the best westerns, but virtually unknown.
-
Is this a reality show? Or there's one from 2024 that has this caption: "A woman devoid of love encounters her first love. Will she stay faithful or yield to desire?" I'd avoid that like the plague.
-
I never said I'd even been to the Revenue department, let alone got a tax certificate. -
Why would you need an agent to do a tax return?
-
As I have explained already, he believed he needed to get some kind of tax clearance or certificate that could be shown to Immigration if asked. I believe the 5000 baht was for that certificate, as others posting here have already been charged.
-
Like a lot of falangs he believed he was doing the "right thing" and also covering his butt if Immigration asks for it when he next applies to renew his visa. Time will tell if he made the right move.
-
Cancel.
-
Hence his negotiation from 11000 to 5000 baht.
-
I thought this new law just came into effect for the last tax year, or are they going to start taxing people from their first arrival in Thailand? In my case 15 years of back taxes.
-
He went to get a clearance certificate that could be presented to Immigration if that becomes a requirement.
-
Hang on, I'll check if they have CCTV at the Revenue Office.
-
What I understand is that he had no need to transfer any money for the last calendar year, and he had no income from local earnings, so what were they trying to tax him on? And how was he able to negotiate the amount down from 11000 baht to 5000 baht?
-
No, I believe 100% what he said is true. I thought the tax year was from Jan 1 2024 to Jan 1 2025?
-
What proof would you like, video evidence of the encounter?
-
Just spoke to next door neighbor, who is French, he went to revenue office yesterday and even though he has not transferred any money from France in the last 12 months he was still charged 5000 baht. The Revenue officer started at 11,000 baht and my neighbor negotiated his way down to 5000 baht. It seems pretty obvious to me that this whole procedure is open to corruption.
-
I believe the cutoff (according to neighbor is April) so maybe it will only affect those going to renew after then? I know the neighbor said he did have to pay some tax on money that he'd transferred from the UK, 50,000 Baht I believe.
-
I'm 83, maybe I'm a bit slow, but do I need to something or nothing to satisfy the tax department or immigration?
-
No, I believe he thought it was compulsory to get a receipt from the Revenue Office to present to Immigration when he renews his retirement visa.
-
Because unless I present all my bank statements to Revenue I won't get a receipt to present to Immigration at my next visa (retirement) renewal. The neighbor said he had to pay 5% of all money he's transferred from the UK in the last 12 months. Why isn't this more widely publicized?

TCIO ended with option for a series 2.

I thought it was pretty funny.
-
There's a steak knife there to give some perspective.
-
Already said much bigger than lime as you can see in the photos.

That looks like it. Don't think the Thais use them much.
