Of course they have to check deep or just on surface , but it is possible to do , IF following the rules with proof .... But i took the example that you would be living in Thailand , not traveling with those 400 K to home country , because that would be a hassle And in your home country you could have the same hassle PS : you should followed the custom officer when he went counting the money by machine !!

Not sure , as reports are that in case money already "some time" on account no questions asked , probably they know so it is your own money , and NOT from an agent account ... As also you could bring it cash in foreign money in to Thailand and report it to Suvharnaboum customs red channel , and of course you also reported it in home country Customs with a declaration form as proof .

I got my second KK account ( one KK i had already for my Non o 800K ) with a support letter i asked from desk 8 at jomtien 11 years ago (cost just a " fee 500 baht)

Not sure about that (?), as when using the 800K om Thai bank , you can take up to 400 k after 3 months after getting your ext. but theoretically you could kept those 400 K max. under your pillow head 😉.... safe for in case you " could " die to let to "darling wife/ girlfriend " 😁....until next extension filling them up to 800K For those on the monthly transfers they need proof it comes from abroad transfer

you are right for peanuts money , but just calculate if bringing / transferring 800k for ext. reason .....! and mostly the monthly transfer guy,s take it already as sharp as possible ....., so could face a surprise now with your example of 1250 you do not reach the 65000 baht any more in dollar or GBP or euro

more plunging for the euro..... 36,93 Thb say's google just now for 1 euro those on the monthly transfers for your visa extensions .... check if your exchange rate sum is still enough , as I.O. has no pity if a single baht short ...

37.07 Thb only for 1 euro ....say's Google just now .... Thb keep rising.... Those on monthly transfers for their extension be aware for the correct exchange adaption ,as I.O. have no mercy if you are some baht short

Thai immigration is the first / best placed in line who can report / confirm if we are 180 days a year residing in Thailand and so taxable or not ..... pure logic , as they are the best informed about or presence in Thailand , including partly also for our finances If we like it or not ....

No sad at all ,i just mentioned the controle ,not accusing you of anithing wrong doing

Keep anyway in mind that becomes (possible) reported to you'r home country by CRS reporting since 2022... 🤞

Then we all become tourist's again ......like the latest 2 month visa exempt with 30 day extension possible ......and a border run / visit for some day's weeks , month's Only good adaptable for the "free birds single men"

37,41 Thb for 1 Euro say's Google just now this night at 03-17 hour Thai time

Not specially concerning only Thailand , but because the more stringed CRS rules and fines , they don't like the trouble anymore to keep foreign based clients for all the hassle , i knew this was coming in 2022 , so i made my plan already in 2021 by leaving 1 Sept. 2022, as Thailand was strongly pushed to act as CRS member , they waited long time to apply in full , but needed to for fill finally ...

😉 A) That's one of the reasons i left 1 Sept. Th. after 14 years and went back to take official address in Belgium ,,,,,(pushing the reset button 🤭) and now coming only for the 6 month's to Thailand a year , giving me the privilege to get from my mutuality Solidaris (official gov. health insurance ) 3month's in a 12 month/ year period same hospitalization in Thai hospital benefits (not to pay) as in Belgium hospitalization , included repatriation dead or alive included by my annual pay for 119 euros . B Same moment i am no tax resident of Thailand , and not living here as under 180 days stay , as i need also to keep my official living address in Belgium to benefit that free hospitalization ... and under our Belgium law some may be absent for max. 1 year for touristic reason (or some other ) whiteout loosing your official address in Belgium under condition to report this to your communal administration before C) This might be a opportunity for you too as i assume you be Belgium too

if allowed ....(?) 👍

Nothing new for them , they did that before already , so it is just a return to a former flexible life

So max, 6 month's lease contracts shall become a standard need requirements for condo rent for a big group of expats instead of the 1 year contracts ....... "Real estate's " / landlords , adapt to that or loose

Beware for those special liquids to remove those stickers , as sometimes they take also the gloss from the plastics away as it did on my Samsung fridge ....., just test on a not much visible part first ...

37,28 Thai baht for 1 Euro say's Google just now a minute ago 😔 Not so long ago he was worth 39,53 on his highest point.....

Who go stamp or passport on entering ,as even no visa sticker anymore...?

many renters shall not pay the last month probably, to try to avoid that deposit scam ......or make conditions with the landlord upfront with them And as it can become a general problem it shall not be for 1 only individual so i guess some adjustments shall become on that matter , as it could inflict the selling and renting business in a whole , as the buying money could become EXTRA because that taxing .....

Anyway the realestate rental guys shall have to be happy with 6 month' contract's instead of 1 year rent contracts if more go only stay just UNDER the 6 moth's Thailand stay and hop over to neighboring countrys as example Cambodia to avoid taxing & tax doc. hassle Changing times once more in Thailand

1 Euro to Th. Baht 37,91 ....by Google just now 🙄

It happens also in western Europ that unelected becomes a pm installed by the winning party ....latest Politician winning "Wilders"party installed a high civill servant as Pm ( The Netherlands eg. "HOLLAND") Politicians are all alike ....Thailand is no exception 😁

That is why the teflon baht is rising and dollar and euro declining...
