Western Food - when only this will do !
The longer I live here (nearly 20 years) the more western food I eat. Most weeks I'll cook a roast dinner, pasta dish, fish or steak, and a curry. There are loads of choices for eating out too - pizzas, burgers, steaks, fish n chips, Sunday roast and the good old English breakfast. -

Banks are diligent about monitoring and reporting large, unusual, or suspicious transactions to help prevent money laundering. This is under 2 million baht so they are under no obligation to give this information to the RD. -

Thai tax tangle: Expats warned of new rules on overseas income
Thanks, but hang on, I'm confused with what you've described, I hope you don't mind if I ask you to clarify, if this is too long to reply to, feel free to PM? What do you mean by this? Do you mean you sold all of your stocks prior to 31/12/2023 and held it in cash? Remembering, investments are comprised of capital + gains anyway. Every cent of your balance, regardless of what that balance was comprised of, as at 31/12/2023, consisted of income prior to 31/12/23. Sorry, can I clarify your example please? : 31/12/2023- you have a brokerage account with $1m USD worth of stocks in it Sometime in 2024 - you sold all of these stocks ( what did you sell them for? $1M, $1.2M, 900K???) So, you don't need to pay any tax on remittance of funds up to $1M.......? ( in fact, your $1M of stocks may have been purchased for $600K 5 years ago and grown via capital gains to $1M as of 31/12/2023) Remittance of original capital of an asset is definitely not taxable. The idea of 'savings' doesn't actually exist. The only lack of clarity is what constitutes the figure of the 'original capital' , and how the value of that capital on the 31/12/2023 is seen by the TRD. I don't hold with the view that it needs to be in cash, it doesn't pass a logic test, many stocks and funds are almost equally liquid. OK, so what you did confirm is that cash as of 31/12/2023 would be exempt, if it is held in a bank or a brokerage account, in cash.
