Confusion Over Thailand’s Taxation of Expats’ Overseas Income

Thailand has yet to finalize its policy on taxing expats’ overseas income, leaving many uncertain as the 2024 tax deadline nears. Concerns arise over whether international transfers and credit card use could be taxed, though interpretations vary. Legal expert Benjamin Hart warns against alarmist advice, emphasizing that no law has changed—only the Thai Revenue Department’s (TRD) interpretation. TRD’s new chief, Pinsai Suraswadi, links the policy to economic pressures. Inconsistencies among TRD offices further complicate matters, with some suggesting tax assessments based on retirement visa requirements. Many expats rely on double taxation treaties for protection, urging clearer government guidance.
