Waste of space. But he makes me laugh when he knocks Elite and LTR because he can't make any money from them. 

 

Also he is too reminiscent of another obnoxious American from Wichita I worked with at UNHCR.

I am very disappointed in this thread.....Only 7 pages long.......

 

In the old days like 9 months ago we could rack up 30 pages in short order....

 

Must be a lot of cynical ,curmudgeon people out there who thrown in the towel and who have filed this subject in the bin.....

Are you really still paying tax in your previous living country? TBO, i also checked out from paying tax from where I receive my pension. Therefore the DTA might not be valid for me. Maybe I am naive, but I believe a. pensioners in Thailand are tax accountable, but b. the tax amount for pensioners in Thailand remains 0%. Until there are any further valid information from the Thai Tax Dept I will not do anything. Don’t trust all the surrounding information that come from third hand!

 

Maybe you missed it: I talked about DTA between Thailand and Germany !

I guess the Thai officers will be very happy about the German-Thai DTA.

 

In Germany many people need a tax accountant to do the very complicated job with a lot of specifique jurustic terms, the normal people cannot understand.

 

Both tax laws, Thai and German,  have special terms and exemptions. How to compare and work with them?

 

Only 1 example of many:

the personal exemptions are never the same. In Germany more than 11.000 Euros (in THB more than 396.000 THB) are an elemmentary exemption, and if you are married the double amount!. In Thailand much lower. How to compare and work with them?  The list goes on and on!

 

The Thai ofiice would only tax the money you transfer to Thailand to make it not so difficult -  if no DTA.
