Men dominating 'Women's Sports @ Paris Olympics'
alanrchase replied to KhunLA's topic in Political Soapbox
She was born with a vagina which is what some anti trans people say is the definition of a woman. They will have to come up with a new definition. She competed in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, don't remember seeing you all complaining back then. -
Except you are talking about a completely different speech. The topic is about what he said on Fox and you are explaining what he said at Turning Point.

Guess what? Tax is due for all those years." I don't see the words "may be due".

I agree the tax situation as written in law has always been the same, however they stopped applying it to foreigners some time ago. The government has announced that as of 01 Jan 24 they will start applying it again. They have also mentioned changing the law to tax worldwide income. Where did I get the information from? Reports about what the government is proposing. This is a thread about those reports. Where have you got your information reporting that they will impose back tax?

Where have you got the information that you will be taxed for the previous decade from? As far as I understand the government officially stopped requiring foreigners to declare remitted money quite some time ago (late 80s?). They are reintroducing it this year so why would you have to worry about previous years? Nothing in any reports I have read make any mention of back tax. This is a thread about legal ways to avoid tax, your suggestion of not submitting a tax return if you have taxable money remitted to Thailand is tax evasion.

I can live for years on my savings as well. I suspect there will be a need to prove the money is savings, I also suspect that your income in the year will need to be shown as well. I suspect they will consider money remitted to Thailand to be from income first until it is all used up. It will all be moot if they decide to tax worldwide income anyway. Not really worth getting into various ways to lower your tax bill until they have decided exactly what they are going to do and made it law.

I don't think trying to remit pre 2024 money will work. Tax authorities are not daft. I suspect all tax authorities consider that the tax years income is spent first before you dip into savings. If you have income of $20,000 in a year they will not consider any money to be savings till you have used up that $20,000.

Second Chinese-Language Billboard Ad Emerges In Thailand
alanrchase replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
While the billboards may be a recent development there are plenty of shops that have been around for years that only have Chinese signage on them. Plenty of Chinese temples that have been around for years as well. Not to mention the Chinese new year celebrations. -
Reprocessed house
alanrchase replied to stupidfarang's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
She got tired of them not working and her having to pay their bills. She gave them a week to take their stuff so their fault if anything they wanted was damaged. She planned to renovate the house so the roof doors and windows were coming off anyway. My roof has not been touched. -
Reprocessed house
alanrchase replied to stupidfarang's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
My wife recently evicted a nephew out of a house on her property. Got the village head and a policeman round to explain everything to him. She put a sign on the door giving the nephew and his wife a week to take their belongings out of the house. When the week was up she had the roofing sheets, doors and windows removed so the rain could get into anything left in the house. A week later she started giving away anything the neighbours might want and bagging the rest for the trash collection. She is now having the house renovated. -
There is a legal requirement in Thailand to carry your passport with you when you are out and about. This is rarely enforced but is why you cannot renew online. Many other countries do not require you to carry your passport when you are out and about, you can leave it at your residence or at an hotel. Nothing to do with paranoia, I never carry my passport in Thailand unless I need it during my travel, eg. visiting the bank.
-
What are you on about? OP asked if it can be done online from Thailand. Another poster remarked that online renewal can be done in the UK. I replied to that post by mentioning that online renewal can also be done abroad but gave a reason why it is not allowed in Thailand. Then for some reason you stepped in and inferred I was wrong and should reference your post.
-
It can be done online from abroad as well. My sister did hers online from the US a few years ago. My understanding is one reason for not being able to do it online from Thailand is the (unenforced) requirement to carry your passport. Online renewal leaves you without a passport until the new one is delivered.

Galvanized steel has no oil on it. Still best to give it a clean before paint but a lot easier than cleaning mild steel.
