Under the DTA and confirmed with the Authorities in the UK and Thailand the UK State Pension is taxed in the UK if over the current p a of 12,750 pounds and no need to file these figures in these tax forms if and when they come out.

jonesthepost I know exactly what you are saying and yes either 500 or 560K allowance and in fact gone up to my local Revenue office in Kanchanaburi and been asked "Do you have employment here and yes my income is less than 560K and this includes a wife's 60K personal allowance. Yes, you do not need a Tin in that case and also told them have a pink ID card and they stated you could use it but not giving you one for the reason above and no employment. Also asking about any new forms and they do not know and some suggesting using old forms as mentioned in other posts but may go up again but a local Thai friend whose wife knows of someone in the Revenue has stated the same and unless one sends a form just do nothing. Yes, have also read that one has to submit a tax form but if one does not have tax to be paid one stiil has to?

I thought that was the case and not sure about it anymore and yes so many so-called tax experts and it seems no one know sure on anything,

I have been several times to the Revenuue and explained my situation and yes "Do you have employment in Thailand" No you will not get a Tin and also explained the Income Exemption is more than my income coming in. Did mention got a pink ID Card and yes no forms as yet and in any case could use if got employment then no you can not get a tin. Will await until next week and ask again but there is still time.

Who knows, as usual?

Who knows and so many so many so-called experts saying different things as usual

Who knows as with everything else and thousands upon thousand of post and not just this topic but tend to agree somewhat!!!

I am nor sure but seen 2K fine and very unlucky if caught but it depends on how large the amounts and for most of us can claim allowances of 500 or 560K and more than our income and have been stated several times that I do not need to file!!!

Hope he does not charge you high prices!!!

Expat tax forget it they not at all helpful and only want your money !!!

Agree 100% oldcpu and noticed this too and back to wait and see or yet another visit to my local revenue office but been up there so many times and no you do not need to file and in any case we won't grant a Tin as you have no employment here in Thailand I did say got a pink ID and possibly (not sure) can use this but lie low for the minute but might go up next week!!

Now some stating can use 2023 forms as at the top of it there is no date but again been told do not have to fill in a form under my circumstances my income is below the 500 or 560K threashold and also asked do I work here and can not get a tin without it nut got a pink id card

The point is and seeing other posts those who have been told you do not need to file but one can not do online unless one has an in line number and can not access it otherwise?

Still no forms??? And will there ever be???

500 or 560K in deductions wow you must have a lot of deductions allowable?

Ni forms and this Carl Turner suggest you try the Revenue Errr they have none available yet again!!!

What year and what sites???

Conversion not very accurate ah well we live in hope lol

Yes and never 100%!!!

OJAS thanks for your support and yes I like to think contribute a lot and yes got Carl Turner giving me grief and yes there are sites updated but unfortunately only in Thai ie www.rd.go.th/272.html www.rd.go.th/65971.html in Thai 2024 only www.rd.go.th/english/65308.html Sorry if misspelt on the sites ok in Thai only and on

With respect they have not!!!

Thank you Mutt and thought for a minute as it came out in English but can see the forms but no way convert to English as far as I can see!! Any ideas anyone apart from getting a Thai to convert Yes, looked at the general rd site and yes can see the Income Exemption Entitlement form but do not work here in Thailand but as salaries and pensions in top box ? Many people are going to lie low and in my personal circumstances my local Revenue office in Kanchanaburi have consistently stated to me that as I do not work here and my Income Exemption Entitlement is higher I do not need to file a form. Yes indeed they knew and I know about being here for 180 days but yes at first it appears we have to file but there is a clause and stating if your allowances are lower than income coming in to Thailand you do not file.

Agree but not easy if one has a Thai family and of course they make absolutely no allowance for this and when these tax experts are asked a simple question they do not but have you signed up and all about money, as usual.

Well anyone as everyone does not know ok
