Paying Tax

[pokerman]

Does anyone know what the tax rates are for teachers?

[TerryLH]

The same as for everyone else.

It depends on how much you make and how much you have in deductions.

The accountant at the school should be able to help you figure out how much you'll owe.

Google 'Thai Tax Form 91' It should get you a tax form. Somewhere on the gov site there is an English version. With it you can pencil in your specific info and figure out how much to pay.

An important point which is sometimes overlooked by new foreign teachers:

You file your income tax return, and pay any amount owing, on a calendar year basis. The deadline is March 31, for the previous calendar year.

If your contract is on an academic year basis, that is irrelevant.
