"Foreighn Income" and your Thai Accountant.

[swissie]

Taxation of "foreighn-income" is all the rage here.

 

Why not hire a reputable Thai Accountant, specialising in taxes generally? If Problems arise, refer the Thai Tax Wizards to your Thai Accountant. Under the Motto: "If my Thai Accountant can't handle my Thai taxes, how could I"?

 

Example: I had my Visa-Stuff handled by a Thai Visa Agent. Once immigration discovered some "irregularity". I refered them to my Visa Agent. I never heard anything from immigration in this matter ever again.

 

I am absolutely sure, that such a constellation would also be applicable in connection with "foreighn income". Money well spent, especially if larger amounts are involved.

Instead of an agent how about getting a new spellchecker - foreign spelling is wrong in the title and twice in the message....doesn't inspire any confidence in the poster if you were unaware of the poster before.........

If you do it yourself perhaps you never have these irregularities...........I would not know..........

This is a very good idea. The challenge is to find an accountant who is (1) familiar with your home country and respective DTA, (2) understands foreign language (possibly not English) documents, and  (3) has a good relationship with your local TRD office, which may be difficult to find if you do not reside in Bangkok.

A "good relationship" can be bought here, and I don't mean for just 1 hour.
