You should actually ask to have this applied retroactively! In all fairness, as Thai tax residents are required to pay tax at a rate equal to Thai citizens, should we not also be eligible for the same benefits as a Thai citizen, or should we remain 2nd class residents with no added value for paying all taxes as required by the Thai RD? 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to complain to your govt representatives then if they are the one's responsible for your problems now. Too many diplomats could care less I guess for their expats in foreign countries.

But how do they match it up to any particular individual? Like I said, without a US social security number they would be hard-pressed to match me to anything.

Popular Post cardinalblue Posted June 6 Popular Post Share Posted June 6 (edited) Thai gov is so incompetent…because they can’t figure out how to get the economy rolling, they pick low hanging fruit like retired expats who are bringing in money to spend repeat spend not to horde… Why in the hell do you want to tax a group who in turn is putting the money into the economy? ir makes zero sense…it’s like the bar scene when having low volume of customers raise drink prices rather than offer discounts to attract more customers Mind boggling….

Like I said, without a US social security number they would be hard-pressed to match me to anything. well I don't know about anyone else, but when BOA decided that I couldn't bank with them as I had no US address about 5 years ago and also, immigration required me to have a self-only accountr, at BB, in getting the new account I had to provide my US social security number but fortunately, I have a US govt pension only and under the DTA Thailand cannot tax that. I guess though, I will have to provide some documentation supporting this to the RD...we'll see maybe when they get around to letting us know all the details of the final decisions on this program.

They can't touch my foreign income if I don't bring it into Thailand. That's were you go wrong, their idea is through information sharing, get their hands on your foreign income, even if it doesn't get to Thailand. Whether they will be able to enforce it, that's a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their official international language is English and Thai of course their nationa language and expats will probably have to either talk with the RD folks to complain at first or with tax agents about their own taxes...as usual much will be missed in translation someplace anyway.
