What about immigration law with Thailand marriage equality?

A case of an art film about first loves but in a queer context that should be something all humans can be able to relate it. (If not, they should check their pulse.) Northern Europeans seem to be especially good at this kind of theme. Though very well reviewed, the coming out reactions part of the film has been criticized for being extremely idealized and it really is, but that rather fantastical aspect doesn't really take away from the overall emotional impact.

Subjective truth. That's hilarious!

I've been there. The dogs were indeed very menacing.

Stop lying. The vast majority did NOT vote for Trump.

How are those egg prices going?

Video touches on the connection to Trump.

Neither.

Yes of course. I have already well covered that you need to be a Thailand tax resident in the year of import for there to be a tax lssue with transfers.

I'll never forgive Silver Fox Cooper for throwing Kathy Griffin under the bus.

Agreed but why skate on thin ice if you have a choice not to.

It will be soon be the law in Thailand. Do we still debate whether opposite sex marriage should be legal in Thailand? I thought not. It's just marriage.

They might allow some days after with a per day overstay fine but there are no guarantees and trying that is strongly not advised.

30 days before. Possibly longer with proof of travel. No allowance for after. Any day after is overstay.

Great question! But on the other hand I doubt expats will welcome global taxation on income and assets either!

Savings in the bank before December 31, 2023 only Any money after that including asset sale profits needs to be indentified as far as source if importing. It's not so much about criminal activities but more like people claiming an import is exempt and the tax man if auditing saying prove it and if you can't you're screwed. My understanding is the penalty is the due tax doubled.

Good question. Again it's not only income. Capital gains on any assets are taxed as income if imported. Pensions including retirement account withdrawals if not specifically exempted by your DTA also taxable if imported. Happily for Americans social security is fully exempt because of the dta. I'm pretty sure inheritances are exempt as well.

Btw if you are audited as any other country the burden of proof about the source of money is fully on you and bull<deleted> stories won't cut it. Only clear documentation will.

I own a foreign freehold condo which I paid a premium for that status. I'm concerned that Thailand's changed tax policies which might even eventually spread to global income and assets is going to soften the demand by foreigners as if I ever sell would be the target market.

Yes usually quite easy.

Not exactly. The amount of the profit thst you import is taxable in Thailand as well. A DTA doesn't stop.that. For example if the profit was taxed at 15 percent at the source and 25 percent in Thailand you would get a credit for taxed paid already.

It really depends on the exact source of that money which will be different case to case. Not only income is tax accessible. For example if you sold a house abroad and made a 10 million baht profit if you imported 5 million to buy a Thai condo while a Thailand tax resident the 5 million would be taxable in Thailand even if you bought the house 20 years ago. A house isn't savings. It's an asset. Depending on country double taxation relief might apply. If that house sale profit had been in the bank before December 31 2023 then it would be tax exempt though.

You're wrong. Only money in the bank that was there December 31, 2023. You can bring in those savings any time tax exempt. So what juvenile flame have got now?

Wrong. Only money in the bank that you can prove was there December 31, 2023 is exempt savings.

That rule was changed. What year is irrelevant now. You need to be able to prove the source of all imported money if audited. One exception still in effect is thar money in the bank that you can prove was there December 31 2023 can be brought in anytime as tax exempt money. Only money in the bank. Not other assets. Not retirement accounts..
