Could not give a to#× if people don't believe, up to them.
-
I have 3 pensions, UK government state pension, London Fire Brigade pension(local government via government) Tesco UK
-
What a ridiculous country this is, no one seems to know what is going on. I'm doing nothing as I've been told by the Revenue office that I cant be taxed due to the DTA that's good enough for me. I mentioned Immigration not the office, my extension is next October.
-
Yes I am but it's good to get a heads up.
-
Went to my tax office again, explained to them I get pensions from the UK, pay tax in the UK. Thay yet again said "due to the double taxation agreement you won't pay tax here" If Immigration should mention it I just show them proof of my tax payments.
-
Can you say what was needed as my tax office say I would need documents from the UK confirming funds coming into Thailand.
-
Strange question, they get the TIN for you.
-
I've been here 17 years and have only paid tax in the UK, I can not afford to pay twice, I could manage a small amount so I will use this Expat Thailand to get a TIN it costs 7,000bht which for me will be trouble free so dont mind the cost, all they want is a copy of your passport and visa. My local tax office wanted documents from the UK in order to get a TIN, they said it can be difficult.
-
Yea it's been a good 17 years so far.
-
I wasn't going to pay 7,000 bht, just asking.
-
Investigated or audited who do you think I am? I'm a nobody bringing in less than 1 mill per year, pay tax in the UK, this is a ridiculous.
-
I would get a TIN but it's very difficult to obtain, documents from your home country, translated into Thai by the Thai embassy in Bangkok, authentication by your countries embassy, ridiculous.
-
My tax office said no so who the fuffing hell is right.
-
I've received an email from Expat Thailand they get the TIN for you at a cost of 7,000bht. Is this good, all they need is your passport and vise page (copies).
-
Yea gave me a bit of paper written on it is, You do not pay tax in Thailand. Signed The head man.
-
They said you can get a tin if you want but you would need paperwork from the UK, I said no thanks they agreed.
-
Just back from my local Tax office, man spoke English, explained to him, straight away he mentioned the double taxation agreement with the UK, I showed him that I was paying tax in the UK. He confered with the head man, "you do not pay tax here" I'm finished with this thread, I'm a simple person with simple finances.
-
Incredible Thailand, government department pretending they have no idea because we are Farangs, you obviously know this from experience.
-
This all must be a big wind up but because I'm so worried I will again try to ask at my local tax office, last time all they said was " pay tax in your country don't pay tax here" This thread seems to be full of people spouting opinions, "opinions are like ar%#oles everyone has got one"
-
If you want to worry big time about tax just read all the comments.
-
Wouldent use that, I get no adds, lots and lots of channels, my favourite is sy fi Star trek Voyager, star trek new generation, deep space 9.
-
Don't know what live net is, I use an app which gives me 9000 channels, UK tv, sky, discovery etc no ads.
-
Depends on what app you are using or they are using.
-
If you are lucky enough to be in the position where you could re-locate that's great. Unfortunately I am here I can't afford to go anywhere else. Like you if I get an email or mail stating that I need to visit my tax office I will go, why should I pay double tax, no one said to me 17 years ago that I need to pay tax, I pay tax in the UK.
-
Is it now law that I must file a tax return? Is it law that I must obtain a TIN? I'm a little fish in a big sea, I bring in less than 1 million per year via 3 small pensions, I pay tax in the UK. Why would they be concerned with me?
