a few days ago, i learned that some bev only support AC single-phase charging (like the atto 3?) and not AC three-phase! this makes me wonder why PEA offers AC charging with 25 kw or even 43 kw. does that make any sense when most bevs charge AC at only 7 kw, some at 11 kw, and only a few up to 22 kw? i've never heard of any bev AC charging above 22 kw ... sorry for all the strange questions, i'm just a beginner, but i like to learn ....

i chose the sealion 7 awd, and after watching the video and owning it for three weeks, i'm sure i made the right decision. volvo, xpeng and zeekr were before also on my list, but since the nearest dealer is a 7-hour round trip away, i decided to join the big byd family instead ...

the sim card (from singapore) in my sealion 7 seems useless ... i rarely get any signal! most of the time the byd app won’t connect to the car, even when i'm standing right next to it. spotify and navigation usually don’t work either... unless i use android auto or a hotspot. is there any way to improve the connection through settings? i think all seal owners have received a thai sim card by now... surprisingly, i haven't heard of any other sealion 7 owners having this issue. maybe my sim card is the problem ...

well done! great news, that just made my day ... thank you!

thaksin seems like the donald trump of thailand … arrogant and full of himself, making empty promises and lying daily … yet both are convicted criminal too ...

some good thoughts, thanks. but i can imagine that if someone deliberately or intentionally doesn't file a tax return, even though they know they have to, it could be considered attempted tax evasion. in a situation like that, a court would probably have to decide on such a case .... just my thoughts ...

you are already on their radar ... the big question is only will they come after you or not ... and will it be this year or in a few years or never in our life time ....

it's the other way around ... if they want you, you have to go to them ...

i really hope someone like you will be the first to try this "gift" option ... it will be entertaining. as always, it's up to you

this topic has already been discussed countless times in detail... there are many points that need to be considered (to avoid tax evasion). if it were that simple, everyone would do it.

I do agree with you ... with one exception, " welcome back EOW"!!! he was a t.... before he had his long break, and he is still the same annoying t..... to spam every ev topic! he should go back under his rock or spend more time with his family ... best, do not feed this t... again!

i don't think that's correct. if that were true, no one would file a tax form with their spouse (because of missing the 150k tax free benefit). do you have a reliable source for that?

some good points ... but if you like to play safe, you should know what to do ... listen to a friend or to a front office staff at TRD without getting any written confirmation, that's not playing safe ... but anyway, it's up to you ...

yes, that's correct. but if the TRD ask or audit you, you need a solid prove for it ...

maybe you are looking for this kind of info ...

simple answer: NO, because you are not the father, and she is not your adopted daughter ...

i'm not sure if this is an old one or something new... don't shoot the messenger! https://www.rd.go.th/english/index-eng.html

my wife always handled this all the years alone. i gave her these documents: my passport, id card, tax card, yellow house book, and bank statement for withholding tax. i can't tell you which documents were actually necessary ...

i filled out the tax return without uploading any documents. later, the TRD informed me which documents i needed to upload. for my wife's and child's online tax return, we didn't upload any documents at all because the data (bank, life-insurance etc) was already correct in the system. within a few days, they received the refund ...

normaly, the TRD will inform you after a thorough review if you need a bank statement for the money you brought into thailand. it's quite possible that the tax office won't require this proof at all ... i would give it a try without this bank statement ...

i completely understand your concerns. this year, we filed our tax return online for the first time. even with my wife helping me, it wasn't easy, especially the first time online. the refund for my wife's and our child's bank withholding tax was transferred within 10 days without any issues. my own tax return was a bit more complicated, and i had to submit additional documents later (36 doc's to upload). the final review by the tax office is still pending. our experience, as well as that of other forum members with the local TRD, has been very positive. they are friendly, helpful, and happy to assist with filling out the tax return. for years, my wife brought all the documents to the tax office, and they completed the forms for us. we've always had good experiences, even though we've only filed tax returns for the withholding tax so far ... this is just my/our personal experience ...

anyone who thinks they are not on the authorities' radar in some way other the other is mistaken. some of us are in the system earlier than others, but for all foreigners living in thailand year-round, there is no long-term escape ... only if you live here illegally and under a rock ...

thanks for your reply. sorry, my post was not meant to be disrespectful. we have been filing tax returns for over 10 years and have never received the tax forms by mail ... personally, for my peace of mind and because i prefer to follow the rules, i would do the following: go to the bank to get the receipt for the withheld tax, have a thai person help fill out the tax return, and enter the remitted money (around 380k) as income / pension, even though it's covered by the DTA! just ignore and don’t mention the DTA to the tax office ... since you're over 65, your total tax-free allowance is around 500k. no need to worry, you won’t have to pay anything, and you even will get some pocket money back from your withheld bank tax ... that’s what i would do in your place, but of course, it’s up to you. good luck, though i don’t think you’ll need it ...

where did the post come from? is it possible some one does a prank with you?

well done! i'm sure you will enjoy the sealion 7 and love it ...
