I never said they actually can as of today, the OP describes the advancement of a proposal to do just that, tax all funds even when not remitted to Thailand.
no, not yet, I have a plan B. This year I only brought in money which I proof I had prior to 1st jan. Next year I will sell a house with a massive capital gain, I am not even risking things so I will deliberately be non-resident and I will get the LTR probably. I do not post to scare people, just to get them to research their position and do risk assessment. The issues are how will they enforce these laws and for high networth individuals, what is the risk of being detected.
Agreed on financial advisers changing spots. The RD does not have to do anything to "implanted" the 2024 changes. All tax residents need to file tax returns. I have lost count of how many times I have posted this flyer from the RD. How much clearer do people need it.
