Give me the tax statement I made that you disagree with so I can understand your issue

@Jay ******
which claims exactly? I merely repeat what is in the Thai Revenue Code.

You must realise that the people you are speaking with at the Revenue are low paid unqualified data entry clerks and not professionally qualified tax advisers. They can enter some data into a computer but that’s about it. Not people to take tax advice from.

you must first be tax resident before Thailand can tax your income.

clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. What do you mean by “most of the income”? That is imprecise, either the income is subject to tax or it is not. What do you mean by “supposed” to be taxed? There is no “supposed” to be taxed under the Revenue Code. It’s either assessable or it is not....

not all income remitted whilst tax resident is taxed by Thailand. The income must first be “assessable” under section 40 of the Thai Revenue Code. Multiple exemptions apply to income under DTA arrangements.

Anonymous participant 184 once you become tax resident any foreign sourced assessable remitted income (ATM withdrawals) may be subject to a Thai tax liability. It depends on your personal financial circumstances.
