Can someone please confirm that my US gov't social security payments will be tax exempt as per DTA if remitted to Thailand? I want to be sure before I start my remittances this year. Otherwise, I will need to remit only monies that are tax exempt (as per BOI & TRD) for LTR visa holders. Thanks...

I find that presenting a questioning TRD officer with their own version of the DTA in both Thai and English to be helpful. Here is are jpg converted from from a Word document via Acrobat of Article 20 covering Social Security.

You might find the next article (21) which covers non-government pensions, including company pensions and retirement accounts helpful in arranging your finances. Article 1 Paragraph 3 exempts your SSA benefit from the savings clause.
