The original Thai article that the Thai Examiner's article and subsequently that ASEAN Now thread were based upon doesn't even mention foreigners or remitted income at all. All the big boss said was to remind "Thai" tax payers, particularly young entrepreneurs to file their returns by 31st of March. The Thai Examiner twisted the RD's Boss's words around the suit their own purposes. Scaremongering basically...

How would the Bangkok Post (or any other local news source) know who has and who hasn't filed a tax return? Does the RD stamp your forehead once once your return is complete?

I think it's sad that people are jumping ship because of this. Especially when you bear in mind that the Thai revenue department aren't even enforcing this "new tax law". The only people that are, are the English speaking media and unscrupulous foreigners trying to sell you a service that you don't need.

Yes because the COVID 19 vaccine is to blame for the death or every single person that has died globally since the pandemic...

He may have had travel insurance but presumably didn't feel the need to pay extra and buy a policy that would cover riding motorcycles.

Thanks. for the record, it would be the Chiang Mai office.

Can anyone confirm that you need a certificate of residence in order to obtain a Thai TIN, if you don't own a yellow book or Thai ID card? Thanks in advance 🙏

And there is no mention of remmited overseas funds either...

Genius insights? Have I missed something?

Wise's fee may cost slightly more but using them you will get a much, much better exchange rate than any receiving Thai bank will offer you with a direct transfer using Swift. I'm afraid, at the end of the day it's no contest.

So cheese that has matured for 24 months goes bad after 25 months? I will let you into a secret, aged cheddars can last 6 months to a year after opening if refrigerated.

Interesting. Perhaps they have finally realized that the new tax laws are potentially going to scare away wealthy foreigners.

It doesn't alter the fact that it's highly irregular for banks to ask for someone's personal information via emails. In fact they they go out of their way to tell us they will never do that!

All I can see is an email address and nothing else.

Maybe the Romans stole the idea from the Gauls who hadn't quite figured out how to write cookbooks?
