    Vietnam taxes your capital gains as regular income, you would likely be much better off in Thailand even under the new directive.

    Not true for french citizens.

     

    All this depends on bilateral tax treaties.

     

    And if Thailand wants to tax everybody, they will have to renegotiate all tax treaties worldwide,  with an impact on thai citizens too.

    Correct.

    Thanks Dr Jack


    Not  the same subject but a little bit related : I did a 90 days report in April 2023. It was  my 1st report (after a new Non-O visa and extension) and couldn't do it online.

     

    I left Thailand at the end of April 2023 and will come back in November 2023.

     

    Will my 90 days report, 90 days later, considered as my 2nd report, which can be done online, or will it be considered as the 1st one  after my re-entry then to be done only in person at CW ?

    Thanks

    It's about continuity of your permission of stay

    That does not mean physical presence in Thailand.

    The reentry permit "protects" your permission of stay.

    I didn't know that. I left Bangkok last april, my TM30 was made in November 2022.

     

    In November 2023, I will go back to Bangkok with a re-entry permit and an extension of stay based on Non-O retirement and stay at the same place/condo.

     

    So, when I'll make a new extension at CW in February 2024, I will show the TM30 made in November 2022  ?

    Not quite true. It depends on the rates in your home country and the rates in Thailand. If you pay rates in your home country equal to or greater than what the rates are in Thailand then you won't be taxed. If you pay less tax then Thai tax dept will take the difference so it meets Thai taxation rates. Maybe there will be exemption for taxations on government pensions, I dont know.

    Not quite true. Depends upon each tax convention

    Thailand to tourists—please come.

    Thailand to expats—please leave.

    What about tourists transferring money to their bank account in Thailand ? They speak  about tax residents so people that are not tax residents (generally staying more than 180 days) are not targeted.

     

    As for tax residents themselves, Thailand would first have to renegotiate international tax convention signed with many countries.

  6. Hello,

     

    I just discovered this :

    Customs Procedure for arriving passengers at the Nothing to Declare or Green Channel :

    Quote

    Personal belongings in reasonable quantity, which are worth no more than 20,000 baht in total and are not prohibited or restricted goods or food

    20,000 baht is quite low. My luggage was never checked and my personal belongings are always much over this limit and most probably the same for all tourists


    This is very strange!

    OP .....    as mentioned by others,  it's no different from the owner/landlord having a key,  usually a master key that can open every room. 

    It's common practice .....    what if there's an electrical fault in your room and a fire breaks out and your not home,   he needs access,  or a water pipe bursts ...  he needs access.

     

    It's no big deal,  just hide valuables or lock them in a bag,  also put a camera on the door if your that concerned.

    For me, not a problem if the landlords has the code. A bigger problem  if he does not change the code when the tenant changes.
