And what do those people do who have been refused a TIN? 

 

Then you give them a reason for why you need one.

 

You have a bank account, earning interest, with tax withheld.  You will file a tax return to get the withheld tax refunded.

 

For that, you need a TIN.....or your pink ID card.

 

Activation of pink ID number was easy....at my particular rural TRD office.  Office lady called the provincial office, completed while we waited.

I have never cared about that in the least.

I also found this to be a bit off-putting.

Makes me wonder how some people actually survive here, day to day. Don't want to lie, don't want to pay an agent, have you considered writing to your MP!

Reality > Theoretical Understanding of Law

 

Multiple reports continue to come in of people being unable get a TIN in the real world.

 

Your view is:

 

-  People should lie to the TRD in order to obtain a TIN
- TRD officials are lying, as their actions don't agree with your theoretical understanding of the law
- Anyone not "smart enough" to get a TIN, shouldn't contemplate living in Thailand

 

 

The mind boggles.
 

You can continue baiting until the cow's come home, nobody pays any attention any more, we've all come to understand it's all you ve got and the best you can manage.

Following up with more condescension.

So tell us oh wise one, what are your realistic options? You won't lie, don't wanna pay, you going to try debating the issue with them!

Indeed. And Lister certainly was not qualified. Fortunately, he's gone -- but where? Sadly, his echo continues here.

I didn't read anywhere that lister was certified or tax qualified in Thailand, is anyone on AN, are you? But hey, this is not the first time you've bitched about lister, did you guys have a tiff and left you traumatized and scarred or something?

Actually, thinking more about this, if you're not smart enough to get yourself a TIN, you deserve what happens to you later and you probably shouldn't even contemplate living in Thailand.

That's the most retarded thing I read on this forum in years. It's actually the opposite, you have to be very stupid to get a TIN. It's already clear who is the boss at your house, the wife lol. Do you also jump of bridges when others do it?

I got one 15 years ago, because I have Thai income and a business here, It's difficult to pay tax without one, how retarded is that, bright boy!

Usually people lie, bribe or pay for a "service" to get something that benefits to them. Begging for a TIN in order to pay taxes is not what can be called a benefit, except maybe for masochists.
