When using monthly deposits, must the money be sent directly to the Thai bank from the source (example: Social Security or rental income) to prove that it's income, or could I simply send monthly amounts from my US bank account?

Hello everyone.

I am an American. I am planning my retirement and will marry a Thai national soon. My question is, is it possible to have my retirement income deposited into a Thai bank account? Also when I'm eligable, the same for Social security? Is it easy to open a bank account in Thailand, Hua Hin? Any advise or exerience is welcome.

Hi folks, I am a UK Citizen and have lived in Bangkok for over a year. I am having a lot of trouble getting my 'DWP Proof of Life certificate' signed.

So far I have tried the police station, my bank, my pharmacist and even the Tax Office where I pay my taxes, but no one wants to sign it for me.

It doesn't help that it is written in English and the people I have asked are unable to read it.

I have translated it to Thai via Google App Translator, but that does not seem to have helped any.

They have all told me that they are afraid to sign it in case they get into trouble.

It would really be helpful if we could just take it to the British Embassy, but I have heard that they would not sign it for me.

Any assistance or advice anyone could give me would truly be appreciated

I am am American collecting Social Security. I bring in 3,100$ a month. Can I get approved for the DTV on Social Security?

Have you heard anything about the fact that if you are an employee, the company you work for remotely from Thailand should pay social security contributions to Thailand?

I’m trying to figure out the best way to retire and live in Thailand 6 months and US 6 months. If I get a retirement visa, can I avoid the deposit 800,000 baht deposit without depositing my SSA check directly in a Thai bank? Suggestions?

Okay. I'm a US citizen ready to become an expat in Thailand

What are my responsibilities to America. I am on medicare and medicaid but probably have to get part b. I am also on ssI with direct deposit. Will any of these benefits be compromised as an expat, and curious about tax liabilities. I know it's alot but I also know alot of you have gone through this. My visa would be non o with Thai Family.

Interesting DWP you tube video for pensioners or claimants living in thailand,.

My employer based in Germany wants to know if there are any requirements for him if I work for him permanently in Thailand with the DTV.

He is aware that tax and social security matters need to be clarified. But are there any other requirements that need to be taken into account?

He is worried that he will have to deal with the Thai authorities.
