Thailand May Ease Overseas Income Tax Rules Amid Global Changes
jwest10 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Been told countless of times via the local Revenue I do not need to file a return as my allowances above any income but will keep manual / written calculations on paper -
Ok OAE over 65 years old 190K Personal Allowance 60K PA wife if joint 60K 1st income tax 150K Pension allowance 100K TOTAL 560k Also, yet again and have been up to my local Revenue office several times directly and indirectly and they have asked " Do I work in Thailand ?" No I do not so you do not need to file a return. I also raised that my income is less than than my personal allowances and have pink ID card and again makes no difference there is no need to file. Also you will be aware of thousands upon thousands of differing opinions by so many tax experts and yes the Revenue Offices and Officials/ Also there are only the 190k and 100k listed on out of date forms.

Yes and agree and others stating as you are a British Citizen surely your own Government should be dealing with it and yes trying to explain so many differing views but have been told several times that my personal allowances exceed my income and you do not need to file. Also they have asked the question "Do you work here"? No so reason to file and yes aware of the 220K and also got a pink Id card and again there is no need.

Yes and do not forget the personal allowances of 500 or 560K as well, Some may get more and there are other allowances but the 2, I originally and belief the majority would get these!! I have been told my income is less than my personal allowance and no need to file a tax form and asked so you work here and no and therefore the Revenue stated no need and several tines too!!!

Late to renew retirement visa
jwest10 replied to john smith's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
There are ways around this as has been mentioned many posts but why leave it so late? -
Yet again my local Revenue office have stated as my income is less than the allowed Personal Allowances that I do not need to file a tax form, Yes, people stating about about 220K but also been asked by the Revenue several times "Do you work here?" No I do not and you do not need to file. Also mentioned got a pink ID and again you still do not need to file and did have paper calculation on say my frozen State UK pension and my P60's to 5th April but did not need them but will keep them in my records The P60s also show the income tax figures of course.

Yes, have hand written ones and when my Thai book updated it will show my state pension income from the UK but have a manual record if it and any pensions taxed by means of a P60 In any case have been told by my local Revenue office as my personal allowances outweigh any income and again asked many times "Do you work in Thailand " and no and why do you need to want to file and no need. Yes mentioned again got a pink Id card and again not need to file.

https://youtu.be/2_vGytBre2o?si=b1i40wyMtw0xj0Gy Yes this is the link of 5Feb regarding the tax and forms. Yes and think got it confirmed and also by my local tax revenue several times and was asked "Do you work in Thailand" No and why would you want to file a tax form but there is no need to file and yes it does state in earlier podcasts about the 60k or 60kx 2. On the first option it clearly states that if your personal allowances are higher than you income coming in then you do not or required to file a tax form and yes got this several times from going up to my local revenue office and yes there have been differing opinions on this. Keeping manual records of any incoming monies but need to get my Thai bank updated to show my UK frozen state pension/ I would suggest that most UK ex-pats income is less than either the 500 or 560K Thai Baht allowances and it is at least crystal clear but who knows. I have also mentioned got a pink id card and stated it makes no difference and Tin in required but did suggest possibly could use it but they states Why? You simply do not but wonder and might go up nearer March but do not want them going after funds which are taxed in the UK If you have manual bank statements and the P60s and the like keep these records but do not worry
