sometimes when the data from your passport Bio Data Page loads automatically it misspells things like names when you have special characters in it

A hotel for a week or so is fine and you can use that address.

Make sure when you book it that you can cancel with a full refund in case the visa takes longer or you change your mind where you want to stay.

You will still get the hotel booking confirmation that you can include in your submission

yes paying attention and being organised with your cover letter and docs is key

That does not answer the initial question of why you do not need to file a return unless you consider that your "savings" are non assessable income or you are earning very little money.

So the question is where in the code are "savings" defined and considered non-assessable

@Pete ******

I have an am to dumb to find anything other than the Obligation to do so. Given that you know it it would be great if you could show me where it is

@Pete ******

I am very aware of this I have had previously pointed this out to you. However the point has not changed about your obligation to lodge a return if you are a tax resident.

I am sure that you are aware that the rules have changed last year as to what is considered "Savings" in the eye of the Revenue Department and how ANY funds remitted into Thailand are to be treated.

Please refer me to the legislation that states that you do not need to lodge a return even though you remit funds into TH

I am Australian myself and had multiple sessions with my Accountant here and their counterpart in BKK as its an International Firm so I am aware of the DTA AUS-TH

@Pete ******

very interesting. Would love to know what source your money comes from as even savings under the new rules are no longer tax Exempt

@Pete ******

and who determines what is and isn’t assessable income? Self declaration?

@Peter **********

if you don’t mind please point me in the right direction in the tax code or any other legislation where I could read this. Thanks
