Irrelevant. It's the law. He could be denied boarding

@Joe ******

A Thai embassy in Pattaya? I know Pattaya's a strange place but that takes the cake! 😆

@Joe ******

Embassies don't give extensions. Which embassy?

How did you get an extension from the Thai embassy? They only issue actual visas

@Phuket *****

Totally wrong. Re-read the DTA. There is a litmus test to determine which residency applies. The DTA doesn't differentiate between pensions

@Phuket *****

Totally wrong. You can be a dual tax resident and you then apply the test in the DTA to determine which one prevails. Retaining Australian Tax Residency means any pension is not taxable in Thailand. Further, any sums accumulated prior to 1st January 2024 are tax exempt

@Jeff ******

I am a resident. I also happen to be a world traveller. I'm laughing

@Jeff ******

I'm in and out of the country like a yo-yo. I haven't filed a 90-day report since covid such as are my movements. A free stamp every time I enter for 180 days for the next five years suits me down to the ground. Any money I bring into Thailand is tax exempt, so the tax-free component of the overpriced LTR is worthless to me. The DTV is the best thing ever happen in Thailand. It's a beauty!

@Jeff ******

I think you mean the LTR? Work it out. LTR 50,000 with insurance. DTV 10,000 no insurance. No brainer 🤣🤣🤣

@John *****

Not quite sure what you mean. If you're an Australian Tax Resident, pensions are not taxable in Thailand
