Good day I entered Thailand with my old passport which is still valid until the 1 rest of February 2026. My old passport was not invalidated in Germany. But as I understand there won't be any issues at immigration. Thank you for your advice. Wbr Peter Jaeck

Good day Now I'm back into Thailand with two valid passports. I obtained a new one in my country Germany and my old one with the extension of stay based on retirement. I'm due for my new extension in August 25. Do i face problems with immigration upon my new extension? At the time on the 7 th August 25 my old passport will expire on the 1 rest February 2026 .

Gday Now update on my case : I went again to the revenue place in Pattaya to have my dues finally assessed. Hurray hurray I was assed 0 tax payment but was asked to pay THB 5000 for the clearance certificate alike also 4 of my friends. Only one escaped the payment for he is on s 20 years elite visa. Now my question: do have others here similar experience with this new fee ? Wbr Roobaa01

Gday Story from Pattaya Went on thuesday to the revenue office with my bank statements and books. I had thb 299000 transferred acc. to my statements and the 800000 in my second book for the annual extension. I transferred the THB 800 k in 2023. I asked the officer for a tax accessment. The officer came up with THB 5000 in income tax. I disputed the amount for I pointed out I'm pensioner 65 plus hence to be entitled to at least tax rebates THB 560k. That was denied for I was advised that also the 800 k are taxable? I left advising I would seek a second opinion. Wbr Roobaa01

Gday Today integrity legal on YouTube Title when should expats truly worry about Tax in Thailand. The CEO expressed explicitly again that 80% Of expat retirees in Thailand shouldn't worry about tax matters. Also that there is no intend by immigration to include tax matters into the visa etc.. process in the foreseeable future. That guy is the most credible source. Wbr Roobaa01

Gday Donald trump just took the us out of OECD dies it mean now tax matters are going back for us citizens in Thailand to the old AMI treaty? I figured out the following general threshold when married on pension older than 65 THB 190000 THB 120000 THB 150000 Total THB 460 k if I stay below that no tax hence why bother to file a return?

Good day Now the new prime ministeress has been installed and as it looks like the investors community is in favor with trust as the THB strengthened. Thereto the THB 10k digital wallet waste to be skipped I think also the income tax matter will be disappear in the drawer and all excitement was a waste . Wbr Roobaa01

Gday Just watching Thai daily expat show explaining the new visa rules . Thus 60 days visa exemption can be extended by 30 days. Hence I can do two entries per year by existing to Cambodia 2 times in a year . Thus given I can obtain accummulated 270 days in Thailand as Tourist. Thus I'm liable to pay income tax as tourist? Wbr Roobaa01 //Edit by Maestro: Off topic. Should be discussed in one of the ongoing topics about income tax.

Gday Today the new visa exemption rules comes into effect so anyone from the 93 countries entitled receives the 60 days stamp. 60 days plus 30 extension at the 1900 . So I can do that for 2 times more in one year reaching 270 days am I then a tax resident as being a tourist? Secondly a German pension receives age pension euro 1245 after deduction of health care he receives Euro 1104 net. The pensioner is still registered in Germany with a residential address thus makes him liable to file an income tax return and pay taxes. But euro 1104 is still within a threshold of euro 11680 so non taxable. However the pensioner stays more than 180 days in Thailand is he to file an income tax ? Wbr Roobaa01

Gday This is the crux for my pension is too low to be taxed in Germany. However in Thailand it's a different story. The DTA stipulates that the German government is the tax sovereign if you are registered with a fixed address in the country. Maybe I'm wrong but this appears like a conondrum to me. PS my net pension after deductions of health insurance in Germany is the 525k Wbr Roobaa01

Gday Another aspect pertaining the Thai tax horror the Global income taxation like mentioned in the Bangkok post article. There are foreigners who are still a resident of their home country i.e. Germany . German tax law stipulates as long as you maintain a legal address registration as first residence one is subject pay tax by law in Germany. So how would that play out if Thailand amending the law to global income . USA similar. Wbr Roobaa01
