Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part I
I have done as Yumthai says for more than 15 years and got the deductions to which I am entitled. I think its important to remember that tax filing in Thailand follows Thailand's internal tax rules so by that if it's a foreign pension remitted to Thailand doesn't really matter. Felt

Phuket officials accused of extorting Thai women and their foreign husbands
Out of personal interest, I read a lot of history about Phuket in my first years here and to put it nicely where we come from, traditions, culture and genes do not disappear overnight even if the livelihood today is somewhat changed from our ancestors. Felt

Change in the tax law does target expats living in Thailand and extends reporting obligations
Failed was a very harsh word to use IMO. I'm no financial tax advisor and it wasn't a advice to anyone just the fact that a DTA between two countries can not automatically just be changed over the night to fit new ideas in one state. Anyway, I don't have any prerequisites to know the rules in Germany vs a tax agreement with Thailand, but it reminds me a bit of how it was at home until about 2008-9. i.e., to pay tax for individual people with, for example, a pension was a bit of a goodwill issue here in Thailand. When you mention tax on capital income, bank interest, and fund placement, I mean previously to have seen it mentioned in this thread that it was only in case of a possible transfer to Thailand, but I now see that it is a question of capital income regardless of whether it is transferred or not and then I myself will be affected, even if the interest I earn in a year is a pittance in the grand scheme of things.

Change in the tax law does target expats living in Thailand and extends reporting obligations
Nothing else than experience of following one DTA the last 15 years which stipulate that I shall pay tax on what's actually transferred to Thailand and what not is transferred are taxed in home country where I have to prov with English language Thai tax payment certificate and Thai certificate of residence annually. That DTA will not be changed 1. January 2024 so I will still pay tax on anything transferred to Thailand, either its pension income or savings. My bank home has my TIN and so have naturally home country's tax department. I prov my transfer to Thailand with an annually statement from my bank here and because the info they already have at my home country's tax department it's a "see through" for them if I have transferred anything to a second Thai Bank. I understand that many countries have different DTA`s so I absolutely understand many people's confusion and frustration and I think but can absolutely be wrong that many DTA`s need renegotiations or most likely an additional tax clause for they based in Thailand and that can be negotiated between the relevant country and Thailand quite quickly.

Change in the tax law does target expats living in Thailand and extends reporting obligations
If Thailand has a tax agreement with another country, they must follow the agreement and cannot for their own benefit change it until a possible new agreement is in place and it takes a long time to renegotiate tax agreements. Felt

Why should the Bank have your TIN😕I have paid tax here since day one and have never been asked the Banks (2) in Thailand for a TIN. However, the regulations under the FATF will most likely make your home country Bank demand it if your tax residents in another country than your home country. Felt

Two questions. 1.Regarding staying in another Provins than registered / 2.New online registration form used by apartments, hotels etc.
Well, I stand corrected after a visit to Immigration with TM 30 and all other necessary documentation from landlord for new address registration. Then Immigration told me you are already registered online with new address so what can we help you with? Bummer😯 but I'm old and old fashion and "hang" in the old system and don't really fully get along with online this and online that. Anyway, thanks to all inputs. Edited, immigration also told me then as online registered I can do the 90-day report here on my "away from family" address. Felt

That's how I thought it was, but what does the law say? In any case, I will "work" with the landlord to get them to draw up a lease for 5 months. Felt

Good to hear I'm not a prisoner😌🙂 Do you have any recommendation on when I should do the online report as the next 90 day report is 13 Jan 2024 and two weeks before that date is 31 Dec 2023 and the Thailand New Year holiday has started and all official offices are closed and at the same time as I checked Thai Immigration's website, an advertisement popped up on the Immigration website saying that December 29 is also a public holiday! 🤔 Felt
