This means that every citizen in Thailand who resides more than 180 days is entitled to a tax deduction of 190,000 + 60,000 THB if he is legally married yet another deduction of 60,000 THB and so on if he has other minor children dependent on each 60,000 THB.

Who knows why the lawyer didn't mention it knowing that he speaks to the majority of retired Swiss on Thailand ?

Elite visas are not exempt from taxes Thai. The lawyer Thai said that if you pay taxes in your country of origin you do not pay taxes in Thailand if tax exemption agreements exist between the two countries. So you won't have to pay taxes in my opinion.

Yes but this Swiss is an arrogant idiot who thinks he is special with his money donated like many rich people who believe they are superior, for this people politeness is having a weakness.

Your observation is right and also what I thought but since you are dealing with a lawyer you can be sure that he will never tell you exactly how things are and their way of thinking and acting. The lawyer achieved his aim of answering without specifying, thus leaving his interlocutors uncertain, only that of encouraging them to pay their taxes. For the ambassador, as you observed at the end of the video, encouraging everyone to get their ID soon and therefore pay their taxes. Swiss big finance interests far outnumber the 10,000 Swiss residents in Thailand.

The Thai representative said that 190,000 + 60,000 = 250,000 THB are exempt so I can understand that if you are below this figure you do not have to make an income declaration as for all Thais. But he also said that the application for extension must be complete with the tax declaration. So the aim is also to scare expats into paying taxes.

Sorry you have right, i have lost same number on my typo, 180 is correctly

Sorry but, I think you need to listen to the video better, because it was clear, if you live in Thailand you pay taxes but if you pay taxes in Switzerland you don't pay them in Thailand, and since if you live in Thailand more than 90 days you pay taxes on your pension, Swiss regulation is clear, you pay where you live, i.e. in Thailand.

The bicycle is also in good condition and does not appear to have been hit by a car, all of which pic are false apart from the dead Swiss man.

Thailand has worsened in many respects in recent years but I note that my country of origin and generally all the countries in Europe are also worsening, giving me a null result. So I don't see anything positive as Thailand will be in the future. There are comments in the West that the future is in Asia certainly not in Thailand.

Wahoo, terror fills me reading all your BS. Evidently reading my answer is impossible for you to understand

You know that when the banks say you don't need to worry, that's when we need to start worrying.

The population has doubled therefore more need for food and carbon dioxide makes plants and therefore food products grow more. I haven't noticed in recent years that the heat has increased in Thailand and if it increased I would move further north. Your fear is unjustified and absurd, human beings have always suffered atmospheric changes caused by our friend and enemy the sun, and our human activities have a very limited impact compared to the masses of energy at play on planet earth.

Maybe why don't you ask Google why these ships survive in the North Atlantic seas without sinking?

I agree with your BS. Russia sends millions of cubic meters of gas to Europe via Ukraine, but weren't they at war? Why should China wage war on the US or Europe which are the countries where it imports the most hard currency and drives its economy. Why should the US wage war on China which provides it with all the goods it needs at a good price. All the military companies in the West are now doing a roaring trade with profits in the billions. Of course someone will have to pay for all this and therefore you good citizens will pay more taxes because we want to protect you. With a financial system almost collapsing naturally more taxes will be asked and even perhaps raiding your bank accounts but all for good, to save you from your fear of the atomic bomb that could come your way if you don't pay your new taxes. But if I were to be wrong and a nuclear missile was launched by mistake since they are about to use AI and cause atomic war, at least here we could survive by eating only the fruit of the trees like today's monkeys..😁 😁

You don't notice it if your garden looks more like a jungle LOL

I think you didn't think carefully otherwise you would have thought that it was his kratom suppliers who he helped by investing in land and providing him with the product to process in his company.

It seems to me that it is based on the various Thai Embassies in the world, for Switzerland nothing has always changed 80 Frs for several years. https://www.thaiembassy.ch/Content/Embassy/59.html

In Chumphong beach there are some with burqas and you pay before you see.....

Thanks. Two hours flight with the cheap cost, why not go and see and form an opinion directly.

""The corvette class vessel sank on the night of December 18, 2022, in heavy seas."" The US corvette class sunk with 3 meter waves with no Houthis in sight, a mystery that the Americans want to understand 😁

Mike I really don't understand your concept that we farang are well treated in Thailand,and we have no right to ask for anything, nothing is free for us in Thailand. This concept is very clear, but now the Thai government asks us to pay taxes, making our lives more complicated without giving us anything in counterpart as in other countries where you can easily obtain residency, and obtain all the social benefits, which are much higher than those of Thailand, which are excluded from us and this makes Thailand much less attractive for expatriates. It's up to everyone to draw their own conclusions when we finally know what awaits us.

If you talk to me then I will answer you. 1) Double prices, it's not important for me, paying 100 THB more doesn't make me poorer. 2) I have private insurance so I don't burden the healthcare system as you say, but many pay in cash when they need it, paying the double price applied in public hospitals. 3) The 90 days as we all know is ridiculous and made by the government to keep the cops busy behind the desks. But since I am a guest in this country I adapt without problems. 4) Alcohol aside from the fact that I only rarely drink personally but I see that it's just another one of the stupid senseless Thai rules, just to make you feel like the government controls you. So all your grievances against foreigners living in this country fall on deaf ears as your abyss of grievances against foreigners living in this country. Who are you really?

Have you ever done financial accounting? Even small numbers is matter
