I’m 45 from the UK and will be taking early retirement next month and moving from the UK to Thailand permanently. I’ll still be receiving dividends from my UK company and using my UK bank card while living there (more than 180 days per year). Can anyone advise how I should handle my tax situation? I understand that funds remitted into Thailand in the same year is subject to Thai tax?

In 2015 I bought a house (main residence) in the UK for £525K with an interest only mortgage and a £200K deposit. The property is now valued at around £600K. So, if I use the original £200K deposit to buy something in Bangkok, presumably it’s tax except?

Hello everyone, I’m currently staying in Thailand on a DTV visa.

I make my living through stock investments and have earned an average of $100,000–$200,000 annually over the past five years.

In my home country, there is no tax on capital gains from stock trading.

However, I’d like to ask:

If I stay in Thailand for more than 180 days, am I required to report my foreign stock investment income to the Thai tax authority?

Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Quick question - if I am applying for DTV and say I remain in Thailand +180 days and therefore deemed a 'Thai tax resident' do I need to file my global income locally? Or only need to file for global income which is remitted to Thailand?

Situation:

Visa: DTV1 Workcation (remote worker)

Home country Germany with double taxation agreement

Centre of life Thailand (significantly more than 180 days per year)

According to the double taxation agreement, Thailand is entitled to income tax. However, in practice, the employer in my home country pays income tax as if I were staying in my home country, right? If I file my tax return in Thailand, I only pay the tax difference, right?

What about social security contributions? In my opinion, there is no longer an obligation to pay social security contributions (statement valid for Germany), so no such contributions are paid. At the same time, of course, I take out health insurance and pension policies myself on a private basis.

Everything correct or any objections?

Hi all, looking for recommendations for a good tax accountant in Phuket (chalong) area if possible.

Will be changing my residency from Australian to Thailand for taxes and also have a company in Hong Kong where i currently get paid.

Ideal accountant would be across these expat situations, up to date with latest changes vs latest rumours and good english would be great as I'll have a lot of questions. Doesn't need to be the cheapest accountant, just a good one.
