We all know that Thai government representative have sometimes big dreams that will not amount to much in the end. Unless it is gazetted it is just talk.

when faced with options “A”, or “B” - Thailand usually opts for “C” … there is a lot of noise but little substance at this point … similar to the tourism tax that was eventually axed.

“studying” “may” “proposed”… if you know anything about Thailand you know what that means.

well, we know what happened to the announced tax for tourists which was scrapped after major opposition. And aside from the announcement of one government official who talked about taxing global income a few months ago it has been suspiciously quiet. The only thing that we know now is that 2023 income - not savings - will be taxable. Beyond this point it is all speculation and as it is always the way in Thailand things can change from one moment to another. And I doubt that Thailand is willing to kill its tax base. I understand your concern, though but I would not panic.
