While another poster in a different thread about tax tells us that the TRD e-filing system appears to have been updated with an option for foreign income.....anyone shed any light on this?

 

 


 

this one is interesting

The following is not PIT related but instead describes changes to corporate tax as a result of GMT Pillar II implementation. It's interesting because it looks at the bigger tax picture but also discusses development to BOI incentives from a corporate perspective.

I never said or believed there was!

Some people mix up corp and individual taxes and believe there is a trend towards minimum PIT taxation. Off topic anyway...

No idea if there is any substance to the article, do not shoot the messenger.

Yes this article says that ALL foreign tax residents in Thailand are REQUIRED to file the tax forms for 2024 income exceeding 120K baht.  Who knows what this means until the cabinet does work out the details.

And you really think they will do this and let alone the forms!! No one knows as per usual and too many experts on here and on web sites.

Actually, I get the impression from the way the articl is written that they do intend to do the citizenship bit and taxation bit, the taxation bit has already been written for the most part , they just need to make sure that all the adult expats are filing...probably just a specific sentence within the Dept of revenue instructions on the forms.  This is not the worldwide income taxation, only the remitted foreign funds for 2024.

Yes, saw that about Citizenship bit and thought it certainly does not refer to most of us but can still see it after the 560k allowances and most do not get this or 500K

The Thai Examiner article also seems to refer to those applying for citizenship. But as many have commented, too many assumptions based on no facts or details. As for all residents having to file tax forms, there do not yet appear to be new tax filing forms in circulation, AFAIK.

Article was posted on September 8th and has been referred to before. Reading both articles the author has stated points that may or may not come to pass - bit like many of the opinions in these tax threads........

Not shooting the messenger..

 

This is a junk article "mash up" of 3 separate news stories.

 

Wouldn't take a single thing from it.

If you're saying it's nothing, that clinches it for me, it must be fact.
