  1. Also, Thailand, by royal decree of his majesty the King, offers tax exemption to all long term visa holders. Something you don’t see anywhere else in the world. So for any foreigner who makes a decent income on their investments - there is no income tax.
  2. This new tax is on all tax residents of Thailand. This hurts the rich Thais with trillions of baht offshore that have been tax free, much more than you.
  3. All you people do is complain. You lot must be fun to drink with. Like a bunch of women. What they are implementing is becoming a global standard and as a big economic player in the world Thailand needs to adapt and implement. Give Thailand a break. Stop whining and be thankful that you can live here.
  4. Those questions can never be answered. You said it right in the beginning. Taking her anywhere private where there were only the two of them was idiotic and just asking for the kind of trouble he is now in.
  5. Only at the cheap gyms. The one I visit in Pattaya and the one I visit in Phuket are both staffed with high quality and legal foreigner trainers. Not all foreigners in Thailand are broke and/or cheap.
  6. Uninformed people acting like they know what they are talking about. What a waste. foreigners can own land. Be informed and you will find many hotels - land and buildings - are foreign owned Thailand Board of Investment launched its promotion policy and 7 years road map during 2015-2021 granting the privilege and incentives on Hotel Business for the investors which is in compliance with the regulation and conditions set forth by BOI. The juristic person will be entitled to Corporate Income Tax Exemption for 3 years, exemption on import duties on machinery and raw material, as well as non-tax incentives. The preliminary conditions to be complied in order to be granted the aforesaid incentives (A4) are: 1) The investor shall contribute the investment amount not less than 500 million baht 2) The hotel should have at least 100 rooms. 3) The project of hotel should be located in 20 targeted provinces in Thailand. In the event that the project was not located in targeted provinces, the incentives shall be falling in group B2 which grant the investor for exemption on import duties on raw materials and non-tax incentives. However, BOI also prescribed the conditions for Thai SMEs granting other incentives under A4: 1) The Hotel should have at least 20 rooms 2) The investment amount should not less than 2 million Baht per room 3) The project of business should be located in 20 targeted provinces in Thailand.
  7. Remember. Thai Airways was and is banned by the FAA. The old BKK to LAX is gone because the FAA will not let Thai into American airspace.
  8. We will be like Samui soon. Wall to wall houses on hillsides (Thais call them mountains)
  9. Remember that many Thais are rich. More than enough to fill many casinos. You might be thinking farmers but at the last auto show all the RR and Bentley were sold almost first day. The Thai farmer and the farang on a pension are the only poor people in Thailand
  10. In Vancouver we have a lot of unreported home invasions of Chinese nationals by Chinese nationals. Usually unreported so other Chinese don’t find out about a potential target.
  11. DIY shops should be closed
  12. Not will become but already is. ICUs have sleeping facilities for the entire family.
  13. Don’t forget seatbelts for those seated and handcuffed to the railings for the people standing
  14. In Choeng Thale, where I live in Phuket, luxury is considered 100 million up. Many villas are now renting for up to 1 million per month (12 million per year).
  15. I think that people from countries where corruption is rampant are scared of police. Just as Thais are scared of their police. China’s President Xi has been cleaning house of top tier corruption, but corruption at its lower levels is still prevalent.
  16. Agree 100%. Let’s give them visas on arrival in the US, Canada and every other country where Thais have difficulty getting a visa
  17. The writers here have a need to use adjectives to create extremely extraordinary tales from drab humdrum stories
  18. Hard to go any lower than what is now being produced In Vancouver we had doctors who were close to shops who would write prescriptions for medicinal cannabis. Simple way to operate under medicinal cannabis government regulations
  19. if you were dealing with criminals Anybody foolish enough to jump into the cannabis business should have expected a turnaround by the next government.
  20. Anybody bored and able to do the math? in 2019 (pre-covid) the number of international arrivals in the YEAR was 39 million. 48.95 for 6-months would equate to 97.9 million in the year. That is more than 20%, using my mental calculator. Thailand is now #1 Top 10 Most Visited Countries in the World (All Time) France. France tops the list with 89.4 million arrivals. ... Spain. Spain rose to second place with 83.7 million arrivals. ... United States. ... China. ... Italy. ... Turkey. ... Mexico. ... Thailand.
  21. listening to ill informed people can cause you tremendous pain Hi Mark Here is a link to an article we wrote about the new changes starting from 1 Jan 2024. https://www.hlbthai.com/new-rule-for-taxation-of-foreign-income/ When you file your first Thai tax return in April next year, you are allowed to deduct income taxes paid in Canada on income that is taxable in Thailand, pursuant to the provisions of the Double Tax Agreement between Thailand and Canada.

  22. I think you people hate Thaksin because he is a billionaire, not because he built AIS, which you all probably use, ran a successful anti-drug campaign during his time as PM, torn down many, but not all, monopolies, and yes of course probably did a few things that weren’t great. You all sound like you actually understand the Thai political landscape. But I think you all have uneducated opinions of Thaksin and the other things you spout about. You should be focusing more on the only thing important right now, and that is your 2024 Thai tax return, due in March 2025. Thailand joins the USA and Eritrea as the only 3 countries in the world to tax you on your global income. And by the way, if you do not disclose everything, and sign the return, that is perjury. Jail time. Lucky for me my Canadian taxes are higher than Thailand’s rates, so I don’t pay Thailand anything from what is left after Canada takes 56% of my income. But you better get ready because this is real and it effects a lot of you.
