My concern is bringing USD into Thailand from my USA savings account because of the new taxing of foreign money coming into a Thai bank account regulation that started January, 2024, i.e., paying taxes in 2025 for money transferred into Thailand during 2024. I am a Thai tax resident, and as I work in Thailand, I do file a Thai tax return every year. The money in my USA savings account was already previously taxed in the USA because it was money I earned in the USA over a period of years.
But as no one seems to know -- including myself -- what this new regulation (or new interpretation of an old regulation) from the Thai RD really means, again, I'm leery of transferring any USD into Thailand. But, perhaps, I'm missing the boat somewhere.
