Using an overseas Debit Card to minimise paying tax for those of us staying over 180 days
Gift scenerio: Someone mentioned about gifting to exgirlfriends. I think there are more then people think who do this. So, you send her monetary gifts She has her own house, car etc. You receive nothing back from the gift. Except, you do go and visit her a few times a year and you stay in a hotel. She comes to your hotel and you have sex with her. Let's say 10 times a week. She does this over appreciation for the gifts you send. If you didn't send it she would not meet you. Isn't this receiving something back from your kind gift? How would this possibly be taxed?

If you think Thai girls make the best lovers then you have never been to South America!
They may be good lovers but mostly have big mouths, bad attitudes and get fat rather quickly. Not many small girls which is my preference.

Thailand to tax residents’ foreign income irrespective of remittance
Could be right. If one is so lucky to transfer 35,000 b a month from a UK frozen pension they will probably owe nothing.

Girlfriend approved for US tourist visa but worried about airport immigration
It is 50-50. They could scrutinize and ask questions as they think she may be coming to work as a prostitute or just meet some guy. Many Thai female overstayers in U.S. they deny about 90% of the tourist applications your lady is lucky she got one.

Philippines any good?
I have been several times and will not go back. Manila nice? I find the place a dump full of homeless and drug addicts. It seems to have turned into a filthy hole. Places like Pburgos rip off 3 to 5 times what it costs in Pattaya for not the same quality of fun. LA Cafe 40 year old large. Angeles CIty is run by Koreans a bunch of old ladies and Ladyboys roaming the streets at night. Yes, there is expensive western food there and a couple of malls. It seemed the pandemic changed most of it though. Many of the younger girls seem to have found jobs in call centers or other places. I guess getting out to some of the other provinces could be an option if a 3rd world life and many desperate poor people is what you want. Anyway, just search about Manila and some of the other places even Filipinos talk bad about them. But, I suggest you go and try it and judge for yourself.

Using an overseas Debit Card to minimise paying tax for those of us staying over 180 days
How does tax work with my Wise Account? If you have questions about your taxes or filing a return — speak to a qualified professional. Wise can’t give you advice on your personal tax situation, and this article is meant for information purposes only. We know tax can be complicated and stressful, but here’s a breakdown of how tax works with your Wise account. Wise is required to follow local tax laws in every country we operate in. That means in some countries we might be required to: withhold on currency transfers, give customers an invoice for their remittance, report customer data to the local tax authorities. We try to be as transparent as possible about any tax we're required to withhold, and any information of yours we're required to report, however we're not authorised to provide you with any tax advice. What information do you report to tax authorities? The answer to this changes based on which country you’re in. Certain Wise entities must comply with the global anti-tax evasion regimes, FATCA and CRS, due to the type of products they offer. For example, our newest product, Assets, causes a subsidiary of Wise, TINV Ltd., which provides the Assets product to fall within the scope of FATCA and CRS as a Custodial Institution. Customers that participate in Assets who are deemed to be reportable persons will be reported to HMRC in line with the Automatic Exchange of Information. Wise is working directly with the Electronic Money Association (EMA) and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation (OECD) to ensure our processes and products combat any tax evasion. As and when Wise is obligated to collect and report customer tax and financial information to tax authorities we will do so. In addition to tax requirements, other regulations may require Wise to collect certain data, like transactions over a certain threshold, and report it to regulatory bodies. Our Terms and Conditions of each entity provide more information about what we may need to report to different tax authorities. Who do I have to report my taxes to? Customers are required to disclose and pay any necessary taxes associated with transfers made through our systems, or on cash received into their Wise Account. The triggering of a tax liability and/or reporting obligation will depend on your tax residency, the nature of the income, and potentially the amount. We recommend you seek tax advice if you're unclear on the tax implications of a specific transaction. Does Wise charge any taxes? Wise may have to levy tax on its transfer fee according to local tax laws. For example Brazilian real (BRL) transactions where IOF (Imposto sobre Operações Financeiras — financial operations tax) may be imposed. Where transactional taxes apply, these will either be included in the fee payable or shown separately at the time of payment, and won’t impact the amount sent to the recipient. Wise will pay out the agreed amount to the recipient and, if required to withhold any taxes, will disclose any taxes that will apply. Depending on the nature of a transfer, you or the recipient may need to declare and pay tax. Wise can’t advise whether tax applies to your transfer and we recommend that you ask a financial advisor and/or the relevant tax authority How does having a Wise Account impact my taxes? The features and functionality of the Wise Account product vary across jurisdictions, which could impact the taxes you may need to pay. Please consult a tax advisor if you are unsure of your tax payment or filing obligations. If you earn any interest while holding money with Wise you may need to pay tax on the annual interest earned in accordance with the laws and regulations where you are a tax resident. Additionally, if you receive any taxable payments (salary or otherwise) into your Wise Account from a 3rd party, that will also be taxed in accordance with the laws and regulations where you are a resident for tax purposes. Wise is typically not a withholding agent in most jurisdictions, so if you believe you should be paying taxes on income you receive into your Wise Account, please consult a tax advisor. The exception to this is if you are a customer of Wise Europe and receive balance cashback on your account. Wise will withhold 30% of any cashback you earn. If you hold your money in Assets with Wise, you may earn taxable and/or reportable income, which you will be responsible for paying taxes on in accordance with the local laws and regulators in your tax jurisdiction(s). We recommend that you consult a tax advisor if you need assistance calculating any proceeds or gains on your investment. Wise provides our Assets customers with a comprehensive proceeds statement associated with their trading activity with Wise but we cannot provide further tax advice Thailand recently joined CRS and will have access to just about any financial account including Wise. Good luck to those who believe this or that account cannot be traced or exposed.

Genital Warts Treatment.
A Doctor can freeze them with liquid nitrogen. It will crust up and come off in 5 to 7 days. My buddy said he bought a to go pint of ice cream from Swensens and they put dry ice in the bag to keep it cold. He used a piece of the dry ice on his wart and he said it did the same thing as liquid nitrogen.

Thailand to tax residents’ foreign income irrespective of remittance
I think they don't care about retirees. Tourists spend probably 10 times in one day what retiree does. Retirees appear to be a nusiance to the government here. If everyone left they would probably be happy. Bring in the no Visa tourists.

Legal Strategies to Reduce Thai Tax
I believe India is taxing the use of India credit cards that are used to make purchases in foreign countries. But, there are reports Thailand wants to tax their use as income for residents? Sorry, it is not income, it is debt. Income is part of your net worth. Using a credit card for groceries, a hotel, going on a boat tour does not change your worth. I don't know of any country that taxes the use of a foreign or domestic credit card for their residents as income. I guess they can do what they want, just seems unreasonable and unlikely.

The scam that's out to get YOU! The Faarang!
If it is about KFC I dislike it here. I don't eat I often but It seems very greasy the pieces are not crispy fried, but oily in texture and taste. I had a Mcdonalds spicy 4 pack last week I was surprised it was fantastic. Crispy spicy and plenty of meat. I guess it is better because they make it after you order as opposed to KFC that has it sitting under the heater. Caveat there is waiting 20 minutes at Mcdonalds.
