Thailand J

my solar powered Citizen.

I have just ordered a Casio on Lazada. I hope it's not fake.

Dental bridge may be?

Anything new today? I hope my LTR visa tax exemption status will survive this madness.

The more thai tax news i read, the more I am confused.

Think of Non-US citizens with US investments such as Schwab accounts.

Thank you for the link. The article does not mention possible exemption of income earned prior to Jan 2024 as previous articles did. I am more confused.

First the flip flop. Now it seems the new policy still depends on when the money was earned (after 2027). If TRD wants to encourage foreign investments, why not make all foreign transfers tax free, clear and simple.

For those considering surgery, Prostate Artery Embolization is now available at Siriraj Radiology Center, 72 yr Building 2nd floor. 02-419-8731.

sure?

Not making oversea remittance tax free disregard of when it was earned shows that they haven't learn the lesson.

To impose 3.5% ( or is it 5%) tax on foreign remittance on poor immigrants is just heartless. US citizens may be exempted.

Hydrogen Peroxide is all you need.

This is good news for those of us who have Roth IRA in US.

If i sell US stocks and transfer the proceeds to Thailand, the entire amount will be tax free, if i read the OP correctly. The cost basic was money from prior to 2024, and the capital gain is recent income.

Since your address is outside of US, no US court will have jurisdiction to probate the account. Have you ask Schwab does a surviving joint account holder still need a transfer certificate from the IRS ?

International account registered to non-US person is subject to US estate tax because the investment is in US. The exemption is only $60K. Please see IRS form 706NA and the instruction. For US citizens, the exemption is about $14M.

I just had lower spine MRI on 3.0T machine at Bangkok Pattaya Hospital at the promo rate of 8000B whithout contrast, great value.

The elephant in the room is the IRS transfer certificate, Form 5173. I believe IRS rule is that this certificate only applies to decedents who are non citizen and non resident. But it appears that Schwab reqiures this form from the IRS in order to transfer your account to your heir after you've kick the bucket outside of US, even if you are a US citizen. What about other brokerage firms such as Vanguard, Fidelity or Interactive Brokers? May be I'll sell all my stocks, transfer my money into a Thai bank and make a Thai will.

Psyllium husk. Lazada or Shopee.

1/8 of my money is in BRK/B. up 18% ytd, 34% in a yr.

Which financial management companies would you suggest, in Hong Kong and/or Singapore? I need to move my portfolio out of US to avoid IRS Transfer Certificate Form 5173.
