Destination Thailand Visa Extension requirements posted on Immigration website
I already Have DTV (stamped until 3rd of March). As someone mentioned it'll probably be easier to avoid all this mess and just spend a weekend in KL or P-P or Singapore. I have bank statement and dental appointment for 8th of March, just in case to show at the airport. -

Should income for visa 800K (retired) or 400K (married) not be taxable?
@Phulublub Excellent, now we are both looking at the legislation. My reading is that income mentioned in Section 40, Par. 1 that you have highlighted is clearly a company pension (exempting civil service pensions) and not a state pension which is exempted in Section 42. The answer to this question is NOT found in the DTA but in the Thai tax legislation, I think we can agree. -

The wording is very clear. Why would the Thai Tax code need to explain it is the Thai social security system that it is taling about? In any event, the UK State Pesnion is not a social security benefit so would not qualify under this section even if it applied to foreign systems. PH -

Concur with above replies. Need to be minimum of silver card Eva/Star Alliance or holding a Royal Laurel class ticket to gain lounge access. Pity, because the BKK Eva Lounge is excellent. -

Ok so you plan to obtain a DTV. The report is regarding a friend. "Dental" will be soft power category. Extension process may be different. Out of interest what proof did will you need to supply re dental work. -

Your reading is flawed. Pensions are specifically coverd in Section 40: Section 40 Assessable income is income of the following categories including any amount of tax paid by the payer of income or by any other person on behalf of a taxpayer. (1) Income derived from employment, whether in the form of salary, wage, per diem, bonus, bounty, gratuity, pension, house rent allowance, monetary value of rent-free residence provided by an employer, payment of debt liability of an employee made by an employer, or any money, property or benefit derived from employment. (Thai) social security benefit is different. The UK State Pension is a Pension and, while is now claased a a beneifit, is not a social security benefit. Section 19 of the UK/Thailand DTA (like the Aus version) specifies which types of Pension are exempt from assessment here. The State Pension is not included. There is a comprehensive list of HMRC website (cannot cuyrently find the link) of which pensions are exempt.. Heresay evidence of what individual people have been told by individual front office tax officers is not particularly helpful as they are unlikley to be fully up to speed on the nuances of foreign pensions especially as SOME (eg US) ARE exempt, PH
