but that is not what I stated. Read my post, come in after July and you have until end of December to remit your 5 years of living expenses tax free. The concept is very simple I’m wondering why you are struggling with it.

not true, any foreign sourced income earned whilst not tax resident even if remitted in future years is not taxable. The cut off date of

/24 refers to foreign sourced income earned whilst tax resident.

nonsense, you transfer the whole 5 year living expenses whilst you are not tax resident. Why is the concept so difficult to understand?

ok you’re just making yourself look more and stupid by demonstrating your ignorance of Thai tax law. Suggest you do some basic research on tax residency requirements and actually read the Revenue Code that is available on the Revenue website. You see again you have confirmed my point. Let me point out the blindingly obvious to you. Read the infographic, where it says foreign sourced income is subject to tax IF the income was earned by a foreigner who STAYS IN THAILAND FOR 180 DAYS OR MORE IN A TAX YEAR. Thus anyone staying less than 180 days in a tax year PAYS NO TAX!

Thank you again for confirming my point and perhaps it’s time for you to return to your village, it’s missing you.

do you understand that infographic? It states foreign remittances whilst not tax resident are not taxable which is exactly my point. Maybe reading and comprehension are not your strong points….

the rule change you are referring to has no effect on tax residency requirements, which remain unchanged. If you are not tax resident then any foreign remittances you make do not qualify as assessable income under the Revenue Code. This is basic tax law for dummies.

Accepted by some, rejected by others. You’ll have to trawl through the comments for details.
