My UK Pensions are already included together with my Norwegian Pensions and subject to tax in Thailand

You are drifting away from the qestion that was originally asked about paying tax in Thailand.

You said you were, probably because you have not paid in the UK.

Chances are that most who have already paid in the UK are not liable again.

It is all about circumstances and income from  2 different countries can hardly be seen as the norm.

I should think that what concerns most is do they need to file or not, looks like the jury is still out on that.

Hello all Members I just want to inform that today I visited the Udonthani Tax Office with my tax papers for 2024 and everything went perfectly I declared my Pension Income also Inheritance money sent to Thailand last year.

 

I receive pensions from the UK and Norway and normally I get back all the tax that I have paid on my Norwegian Pensions due to Tax Agreements, the UK Pensions are below the tax free threshold.

 

To celebrate we just had a lovely meal in an MK Restaurant.

 

Good luck to all members with your Tax Returns

 

So your telling us your not the brightest bulb by making the terrible mistake of unwisely going to the tax office.....Well I have to agree 100%.....

I have a friend who had to pay -- income from employment abroad that was not taxed in home country and   was remitted to Thailand. Clear cut situation. 

 

Most of the posts fom people who ended up owing no tax are from Pensioners aged over 65. 

I think you could well be right and hence again and again my local Revenue Office not only stating again you do not need to file a tax form as your personal allowances exceed your assessable  income and even had figures and P60s and not interested.

Well each to there own in what one believes and does but in my case paying approx 7000 THB each year to Thailand and getting back approximately 90000 THB each year from the Tax Authorities in Norway seems to me that I am a very bright bulb.
