    The problems are the individual is still responsible for filing tax If the tax officer is wrong (which most do not understand about DTAs) it will still come back on the individual

    But how much smaller is the tax allowance in Thailand for a single man 210000baht? against £553000 in the UK so they will lose a lot of that advantage It is only for a person over 65 and married does the allowances equal out
  3. offset
    Did you quote what your figures to the tax officer
  4. offset
    I think that most people that pay tax in the in the UK will be liable to pay tax in Thailand The £12570 tax free allowance is equal to 553,080 bhat at 44 to the £ which is in access of most of the tax free allowance in Thailand Some may be able to offset this with their pre 2024 savings if that is allowed

    Is the Tax free allowance (basic amount £12570) in th UK classed as accessible tax in Thailand
  6. offset
    It can depend on if you can get a tax refund

    Yes but I was only quoting 1 person and I am waiting for him to answer

    Some people file for peace of mind and some will even get a tax rebate are you saying they are silly to file

    I think you have got your sums wrong your figures for Thai tax relief is only 500,000bhat People also need to know the tax relief in their own country is taxable in Thailand (in the UK it is £12570) In the UK it is possible to get some interest tax free that is also taxable in Thailand

    But if you buy an apartment how are you going to show 800000bhat in the bank to immigration You should be able to get 1.5% for 12 months
  11. offset
    Sorry should read 150,000 baht is not taxable
  12. offset
    Thank you for your help I think that they will have to carry on using an agent
  13. offset
    I think they have to accept using an agent for this extension but was hoping to get the financial side sorted so they can do there own extension in 2026 If they now put 65000naht in the bank could they piggy back next year

    It cost 50000 baht and they used an agent in Hua Hin
  15. offset
    They already live in Hua Hin and used an agent to get there first retirement extension but now they are trying to do it without an agent
  16. offset
    They are living She is already in Thailand on her own retirement extension but having problems getting 1600000bhat in the bank for both of them
  17. offset
    She is already in Thailand on her own retirement extension but having problems getting 1600000bhat in the bank for both of them

    Do both husband and wife have to have a separate retirement extension and each have 800000bhat in the bank
  19. offset
    Most Thai do not earn enough to pay tax their minimum allowance would be 60000 plus first 15000bhat is not taxable, not many Thais earn more than 17500bhat a month

    When I send money via K bank I get about 0.40baht less per pound than I get from WISE but my UK bank has a fixed charge of £20 pounds for any amount soi have to do the maths for the best way to send
  21. offset
    Are you including Kbank at Bluport I have always found them very helpful
  22. offset
    It is the Krungthai Bank (light blue)
  23. offset
    But i guess that was for a small amount
  24. offset
    You can get from the HMRC app the amount paid to each company, if you do it for the last 2 years you can show the tax paid for the Thai tax year, but the tax office was not sure they would accept that it is why I am trying to get it from the Uk
  25. offset
    I think that you will find that the withholding tax is 15% The figures you are showing does not list any 1.90% accounts I have just got from Krungsri 1.50% for 5 months I have also have a Mai tai dee account which pays 0.90% but can withdraw money with no interest lost but over 2 withdraws is charged at 50bhat
