Hello,

I would like to know if, with a DTV visa, I am required to pay taxes in Thailand on my income. Do I need to report anything? After all, I already pay taxes on my income in my home country.

Also, I do not have a bank account in Thailand.

Very premature here but …anyone have an idea of the long term implications of retirement in Thailand re the ever changing tax situation? It’ll be regarding over 50 retirement visa etc . Cheers

Does anybody have a contact for dual tax agreements between South Africa and Thailand? Expert

Hi does anyone know if the 180 days or less to avoid tax implications start from each calendar year Jan to Dec? Or is it rolling fron time of entry? For example you arrive in beginning of November get 60 days extend another 30 and your now at start of Feb. Does that mean you only have 90 days max left until November or 120/130 days from the new calendar year?

Concern's about new taxes imposed on imcoming proceeds from my country THAT I HAVE ALREADY PAID TAX ON &

worked hard all my life to earn.

Hi to all, Angela here , i am a brand new group member. I am a semi retired middle aged Australian trades-woman. I am not wealthy but what little means i have i worked very very hard for. Indeed no man ever gave me a razoo cent nor did i ever ask.

Having been to Thailand 3 times over the last 15 yrs i have often considered retiring there.

Now i am not so sure 🤔. I have recently learned that the Thai Gov have audaciously proclaimed they will tax the income &/ or in my case incoming disbursements of my own hard earned money into a Thai bank account.

I have already paid tax on my own money 🤷‍♀️in Australia. There is no way i am going to abide supporting such a Yak hyde of a policy. Ned Kelly wore a helmet when he rorted ya but they intend to so so with a straight face 😮.

I would really value some honest opinions on the new tax policy for retiree's before i consider Thailand as a retirement destination, 🤔🤔 Kind regards Angela

On the whole taxes deal starting in 2024...

theoretically...

What if someone kept the 800,000 in the bank from 2023 (before taxes) and lived just on ATM debit withdrawals mostly.

Wouldn't that really reduce the tax exposure? And also just had the absolute minimum needed for survival coming into the bank.

For me I want to keep putting in 65,000 a month - just so I can eventually get the 800,000 back after a year.

But I wondered if this was another option.
