If you don't have a Thai TIN do you have to check yes to another country? What if you don't have a tax ID no for another country also? 

Would you now have to write your reason for not having a Thai TIN or another country's TIN? 🤔

If you haven't got a Thai TIN and don't write another country down then obviously that means you need to pay tax somewhere, but Kasikorn may do nothing about it, or pass that info on

I went to Kasikorn Pattaya Klang today, completed the required parts of the forms, first three boxes saying not US citizen. Then next form says tax resident Thailand? if not which country, i gave UK address and tax number. Can't see the point in giving NI number or fake number.

 

They aren't interested and don't ask about how long in Thailand and all that, irrelevant for this form filling

Why did you give a UK address when living here....is there some advantage in this ? and where can I find my UK tax number from...or do you mean your tax coding number.......

My reading of that is that you have just signed and dated a form stating that you are not a Tax Resident of Thailand.

 

Might be a bit of a problem if you have spent 180 days or over in Thailand in 2024.

if living here over 180 days then it sounds like additional tax is likely, if under 180 then not, i complete a UK tax return every year so my tax number is on there. You'll have one if get a UK pension

no problem, it's for the future years too where I'll be staying less than 180 days, this is just one bank

Went to Kbank Blupot Hua Hin all that was required was NI number, post code and passport

 

I took a timed photo of the lady that did me form all finish in about 10 minutes

Tax number applies to self employed or someone setting up a company....my only reference is my NI number????

Yes, just use the NI number if you don't have or know the other one. Others have used it and it worked.

Well I'm currently living in Cambodia for slightly over half a year which will technically make me a resident here.

 

They're not in the 'CRS club' down here and I don't have a tax id as I don't work here, own a company, etc, etc

 

Also they don't just hand them out on demand, not yet anyway. But you do need one if you get a job which I have no intention of doing.


So in the event my bank contacts me I will write resident in Cambodia, with no tax id. The second they see the word Cambodia they're going to know that the CRS system doesn't exist in Cambodia. Or if they don't know it (highly likely) then their computer will.

For the UK:

If you have ever been self-employed or completed a self-assessment tax return, you would have been issued a UTR. (Unique Tax Reference) number. This can be found on the HMRC app or Gov. Gateway website. This is the UK version of a TIN.

This is what I will be supplying when I send the form back on 19th December.

If this is about declaring you are a Thai tax resident or not, it sounds kind of daft as that can change year to year. 

 

No

 

This is about setting up the parameters for individuals relating to CRS.

 

Under CRS, Tax residency needs to be established.

 

Gone are the days of earning in 1 Country and pretending to be a resident of another Country to avoid paying tax.

I went to a branch today with the email and my passport (non-U.S.). The lady at the counter checked something on the computer and then printed out the first form. Without filling out anything, she asked me to sign my name. After that, she said, “All done.”

Seems like there was a lot of panic about nothing!

So as usual confusion reigns different kbank branches handling this differently.If you are tax resident in Thailand but have been denied a TIN until next year as some have surely you can't just say you are tax resident in your home country and start giving out N I numbers without lying?The whole form is badly worded I don't have any taxable income in Thailand because I don't have a job here which would be prohibited under my visa anyway.I can see another visit to a kbank branch looming as my certification may well be wrong even though I did exactly as directed..nothing is straightforward here anymore.
