What are you babbling about.

There are literally thousands of posts in various "tax" threads over the last 18 months since they made a rule change - no new laws.

 

There is also no evidence that Immigration will request some kind of tax payment receipt - it may happen but currently not.

 

Thai tax rates are tiered, like the UK, and their are various allowances so blanket statements like 5% are rubbish.

If you are not aware start reading the into here -

 

I'm 83, maybe I'm a bit slow, but do I need to something or nothing to satisfy the tax department or immigration?

No, I believe he thought it was compulsory to get a receipt from the Revenue Office to present to Immigration when he renews his retirement visa.

 

Plenty of people have speculated about this becoming the case without any foundation.  However, if it was going to happen anywhere Jomtien would be the place.

I believe the cutoff (according to neighbor is April) so maybe it will only affect those going to renew after then? I know the neighbor said he did have to pay some tax on money that he'd transferred from the UK, 50,000 Baht I believe.

If he declared remittances to the TRD then they will have calculated tax. There have been some mixed reports as some Revenue offices don't seem to understand the impact of various DTAs and other offices simply say if you are receiving a pension then it is not taxable (sometimes correct but more often not) so go away.

 

This is why you need to read that introduction to at least understand the basics and make your own decision. However I repeat that currently there is no confirmed  direct link between Thai RD and Immigration.
