Advise on declaring income tax on rental properties abroad?

[Fiskebolle]

Dear Fellow AN members,


I was wondering if anyone has experience or knowledge of expats declaring personal income tax here in Thailand (PND94 - midyear + PND90 year's end) on income derived from rental income from properties abroad?

Assuming you are tax-resident (by default of 180 + residing in Thailand) and have 'earned AND send this 'income' into Thailand), during the same tax year when being a  tax resident in the Kingdom of Thailand.

 

Seems there's no distinction made regardless of this is rental income derived form property within Thailand as opposed to property located abroad. 
Rental income under the revenue act 40(5) as defined rental income, requires as well additional filing of mid-year tax return (PND94) in addition to the standard (PND90/91).

Anyone's take on this is much appreciated.

 

Cheers,

if you are a tax resident in thailand and bring taxable money into the country above the threshold, you have to pay taxes on it. the tax office doesn’t care how you earned the money abroad ... it is income money!

 

except in a few cases (proof required):

- it is savings from before 01.01.2024

- it is inherited money

- it is a gift

- you have already paid taxes on it in your home country

- it is exempt from taxes under a double tax agreement (DTA)

OP your understanding is correct. Makes no difference where the property is located, any income derived from the rental that is remitted into Thailand is assessable in Thailand (assuming you are resident here 180 days or more)

 

However if you also paid tax in it in another country you can claim a tax credit for that (or vice versa) assuming the country in question has a Dual Taxation Agreement with Thailand.

How do you clam a tax credit on tax payed in a foreign country.

Is there a box to enter this amount in on any of the Thai tax forms ?

I can't find one, maybe I missed it .
