I got this from my mobile phone service providers. It looks like a reporting of the amount of money I paid to the Department of revenue? But it’s kind of not clear if I’m supposed to pay somebody this amount right now or if this is just for tax purposes later? Any help would be appreciated.

Earlier in the year foreign clients of Kasikorn Bank received communication about Commonn Reporting Standard (CRS) and FATCA (for US citizens). There was a need to complete and submit forms.

Now Bangkok Bank has started the communication and it is predicted all foreign account holders of accounts in all banks will have to complete the forms.

The main question for DTV holders on the form is "Country of Residence" and "TIN" or if no TIN specific reason. This is for Tax Reporting to country of residence which Thailand signed up to.

Please do not shoot the messenger :-) :-)

After reading the Tax Treaty between the US and Thailand, it specifically states that social security income and govt pensions can only be taxed by the US unless you become a resident AND a Thai national. A tax resident who lives in Thailand greater than 180 days is not a Thai National. See Article 20 and 21.
