Will my savings be taxed in Thailand if I retire there?

Jim ********

The blogger was advertising a "tax expert" who wants to spread fear so he can get customers. What clarification do you actually want? There seems to be a lot of people "waiting for an announcement", even though the changes made to the tax laws has already been announced.

Australian pensions are not taxable in Thailand. Why shift money around to different accounts? It achieves nothing

I get a regular payment from my super fund, part of which I transfer to Thailand to satisfy the 65k baht per month transfer for a retirement visa. This is a pension Whichever way you look at it. It is taxable ONLY in Australia

What can I do after my Thai girlfriend's UK tourist visa application was rejected?

Jim ********

@Duncanc *********

Absolutely. I don't know the secret. My lady has a corporate position in a Thai-Chinese company, good salary, has worked there 20+ years. I'm not a "part-time" lover, living overseas and visiting her for a few weeks every year. I live in Thailand. I've lived with this lady for seven years. Getting visas for her is a cake-walk

@Duncanc *********

I've been living with my lady for seven years in Thailand. No marriage, but more solid evidence of a relationship. I've taken her to Australia twice, UK twice and Schengen Area twice. Never had a problem

She's a "part-time" girlfriend if you only see her a short amount of time. The authorities want to see more evidence of a relationship. They probably think both you and her have other relationships going on

You read wrong (or most likely you read a bs post). Pensions, annuities etc are taxable ONLY in the country in which they're paid
