Your UK Bank & HMRC share data with Thailand via CRS. E.g. Though my bank doesn't know I live in Thailand, HMRC does via my annual Tax Return so they share this data with Thailand & includes my name, date of birth, address & all income (outside of my ISAs). As an aside, my accountant wrote to me last week asking for an up to date proof of address as I normally just email them my new address when I move so they don't have anything formal for my current address. I don't know if this is a result of a push by HMRC or just them tightening up their processes. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
my personal opinion: many thais who should be paying taxes do not file tax returns, which is correct. however, a large portion of thais have little or nothing to declare. enforcing tax laws against this group would require a significant effort (manpower) from the TRD, which may is not justifiable. in contrast, enforcing the law on foreigners who are tax residents in thailand is much simpler and would generates more revenue per person for the TRD ... -

ENGLISH is the "official" international language here. No Thai documents were necessary for obtaining the LTR through the BOI. I think that there will be folks that can understand the numbers of those documents that I use from the US government anyway. Only need to recognize a very few words - besides the numbers which are universal. -

Thai doctor vows to create "Hitler Room" to gas hospital smokers
Picture courtesy: Thai Rath THAILAND - On September 8, 2024, it was reported that Major General Dr. Reienthong Nanna, Director of Mongkutwattana Hospital, posted on his Facebook page, stating: "I plan to repurpose the 'public phone booths' that were donated for COVID-19 screening during the 2020-2022 pandemic. These booths are no longer in use and would otherwise become waste. I will turn them into an innovation called 'Smoke Rooms' for those who break the no-smoking rule at Mongkutwattana Hospital. Smokers can smoke as much as they want inside these rooms, but the smoke will remain contained. It won’t disturb others or harm public health, only the smoker's health, reported Thai Rath. The cigarette smoke will continuously circulate inside the 'Smoke Room' until it's fully consumed. The door, controlled by an automatic smoke sensor, will unlock only after the smoke has cleared, allowing the smoker to exit. This ensures that smokers inhale 100% of their own cigarette smoke, maximizing the experience of each cigarette they smoke. Not a single bit of smoke will escape to disturb or harm anyone else. While this 'Smoke Room' innovation may seem harsh, it ensures no one smokes inside Mongkutwattana Hospital. If someone avoids our hospital because of this strict anti-smoking measure, I would be more than happy. Dr. Reienthong also mentioned he would name this 'Smoke Room' the 'Hitler Room.' He warned that anyone caught smoking selfishly in the hospital, harming others, will face public shaming by hospital volunteers and 'Black Hooded' individuals. He emphasized that this is not a joke and that they are serious. Major General Dr. Reienthong Nanna, Director of Mongkutwattana Hospital—a hospital committed to civility, safety, being smoke-free, and free from troublemakers —September 8, 2024, at 10:35 AM. Note: The 'Smoke Room' or 'Hitler Room' will be showcased to the public once it is ready, as a deterrent for non-smokers." -- 2024-09-09 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

Pickup Spins Out of Control After Being Honked at by Motorcycle, Crashes in Drainage Ditch
AI put words in place that are not correct. It was not submerged. The water was not that high. According to the article, he had just turned right onto the road (without looking first?) The motor bike was coming towards him and bibbed his horn to warn him. (I do it all the time when dingbats just pull out.) I would think that he accelerated to go round the bike as it sped towards him. -

Chulalongkorn Hospital
I spent a week in a private room on (I think) the 12th floor (it was 3-4 floors below the top of the building) about 6-7 years ago, for surgery. Food was good, none of the nurses spoke much English. However, my room was arranged through my then Thai gf, who was a nurse, and who had a close friend who was a senior nurse at the Hospital who "booked" the room for me. It is all about contacts!!! The head nurse on the ward told my then gf that they do not get many farangs in the ward. Maybe if you asked the doctor if you could get a private room, it may help. Good luck. -

Yeah, I am already waiting to hear the IO during my February extension process, ask me "So how are you funding your stay here, if you haven't sent money here in over a year?" If they do link visas and tax compliance, will they also give us crap about not sending money here, even if our bank account is above the Marriage 400,000/Retirement 800,000 requirements?
