Your assets and income inside Thailand will be reported to the Thai tax office who will automatically share that info with ones home country.

If that is so then that could open up a different can of worms regarding those that fraudulently claim they reside in the UK when, in fact, they truly reside in Thailand.

I went to the revenue office and asked for a TIN. Many foreign banks want you to show a TIN in order to be exempt from the final withholding tax. I have no income in Thailand and have never filed a tax return.

Did you get it? You don't say. What did your Thai tax office want from you to issue the TIN.
