That clapping and cheering you hear is when you are leaving the place.

Indistinguishable

Due to the USA/Thailand double tax agreement, US Social Security is classified as non-assessable income - meaning it can only be taxed by the United States.

If you order a cafe latte, you should get one shot of espresso.....but the remainder of the cup should be filled with the steamed milk, light foam. It appears they made a cappuccino instead of a latte - which is still only one shot of espresso but much more foamed milk than a latte. That's pretty standard anywhere unless you order a double shot.

Oh look, a guy with six whole posts using his "burner account" to troll the forum.

I guess OP never saw failed Prime Minister Prayuth's solution to air pollution in Chiang Mai:

Not everyone must file to be in compliance with Thai tax law. Jail time, lol.

Thumbs up on the referential verbiage, lol.

From Eurobank's FAQs regarding CRS reporting: "The minimum information that financial institutions are obliged to report to the tax authorities regarding holders of a reportable account are: Full name Address Tax identification number (TIN) Tax residency Account number Balance or value of the account at the end of the relevant calendar year or other corresponding period Any interest or other payments deposited into the account" https://www.eurobank.gr/en/faqs-common-reporting-standard-crs#:~:text=Information included in the CRS&text=Tax identification number (TIN),year or other corresponding period

limousine.in.th Offers fast track (and car service at a cheaper price than AOT.) I've used them often. Golf cart service from the gate is also available.

It's been posted before but CRS reports year end account balances (along with name, account number.) That's it. It doesn't (in general) report individual transactions unless specifically requested or somehow otherwise flagged.

Contrary to what some would have you believe, the actual Thai tax code does not say everyone must get a TIN. It says one should apply for a TIN within 60 days of deriving assessable income. Ergo, no assessable income means you don't need a TIN. Here's the actual Thai tax code, not some stupid YouTube idiot: https://www.rd.go.th/english/21987.html

Stay right there.....one of the fantasy scenario fiction writers will be along to explain how the "note from Mom" system is going to work. "Oh, it's all so simple", until employees working at TRD actually have to perform more work for no reason whatsoever. That will go over well, I'm certain.

Undoubtedly banged the producer to get the part. Maybe she wore a mask in the movie or one of those cowboy kerchiefs over her nose and mouth.

I will preface this by saying I know zip, zilch, nada about German pensions and DTAs. That said, the major disconnect (based solely upon what's written in your post) appears to be article 18-2, where it states "... pensions and other payments for past employment as well as annuities paid out of funds created by a Contracting State (Germany) ... shall be exempt from Tax in the other Contracting State (Thailand)." Earlier in the post you mentioned you have a small German "state pension"....is that an old age pension that is available to everyone, by chance? If so, perhaps article 18-2 is to be taken literally in that pensions and other payments for past employment is germane. In other words, if your state pension isn't directly connected to employment then article 18-2 doesn't apply. If that's the case, then it appears the DTA and the letter you received would be in agreement. If not, then pursue another avenue, I suppose. Good luck.

I can't believe you didn't ask "how is Thailand going to stop tax evasion using CRS"? Or "how will you know that a remittance is non-assessable unless you subject every single man, woman, and child who has a remittance to a polygraph test"? Nice report. Thank you for taking the initiative.

Enjoy your hysteria, JT.

While I seriously doubt the US is going to be invading either locale, when one is bluffing one doesn't reveal one's hand in advance. Military, economic, diplomatic. Why throw two chips away and only play with one? I think that's why it's phrased as "refused to rule out" instead of "plans to".

"As the 2028 election approaches, the Republican Party finds itself facing significant challenges, while Democrats appear well-positioned to solidify their dominance not only in 2028 but also in 2032."

While I admire your patience and persistence, I don't know why you even bother. I stopped reading/responding to the low IQ, low information posters and the trolls. The former group is either illiterate or intellectually incapable of logic/reason and the latter group is just here for the attention. Many times, the two groups intersect.

"Tax evasion is illegal" - thanks for that news flash. Not filing when you have zero assessable income, however, is not illegal - it's prescribed in the tax code.

The disclaimer is hilarious. A self-professed tax advisor advising people not to regard his video as professional tax advice; instead one should seek advice from a qualified tax advisor, presumably not him.

The paranoia runs deep here. Best exchange in CM is probably Mr. Pierre. https://mrpierre-exchange.com/

Never in my wildest imagination did I think watching someone with intellectual disabilities taking a beating could be so much fun.
