Thai Tax

Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend a Tax Accountant in Pattaya who speaks good English who can help me with the Thai tax reporting that I will need to do at the end of this year. I will have received income here this year in my Thai bank account from UK and French pensions and also UK savings held in my Nationwide UK bank a/c at 31/12/23. I am a  sick 83 y.o. so would prefer that any discussions that are needed are not conduced online or outside Pattaya. A guide as to what I might expect to pay would also be appreciated.

Please dont worry about this tax nonsense......Its been one year and no effort has been made to clarify anything....

Exactly. 

From the time of beginning (in May), headlines were made by the empty barks of the tax chief; his own delusion/wishful thinking alone.

 

As of now, absolutely no guidelines of any sorts released from any sources.

 

Thai Embassy still announces on their website:

Foreign Retirees Pay  No Income Tax ( as they are

not allowed to work/run business in Thailand).

 

Do retirees pay income tax? | ThaiEmbassy.com

 

And look at its date:9/27.2024.

It means their advice is Still Current.

 

If you are retirees who can't work here,

don't ever be fooled by those accounting firms(very eager to take advantage of the expats' anxiety: Charging hefty fee for their pointless/useless consultation).

They don't know what is really  going on either.

Pensions are classed as a benefit, not an income.

The UK has a double taxation treaty with Thailand.

 

Relax, don't worry about anything.

You think it can get any clearer that the Thai revenue code and the relevant DTA?

I don't think thaiembassy.com is a real Thai Embassy website 

 

If you look down at the very bottom of the page that a link was posted to it states in small letters:

 

"This website is managed by Siam Legal International – a law firm in Thailand"

 

"This is NOT the official website of the Thai Embassy"
