Go from west to east to get there and reverse to come back, don’t go over the Arabic countries or nearby if you can avoid it.

Hire a reputable female interpreter to go with you to the immigration office in your area and get a certificate of residency, then your phone/ mobile internet provider as well as confirm what they need for your review. Then go and gather or organise that with the interpreter and head off.

where else would it come from and it doesn't matter at all as far as I am aware and I don't think you have had that many discussions to be honest. I found that out by looking on the Thai revenue dept web site. πŸ€”

not if it comes from OS account through a currency conversion and I don't believe in any case it matters, it apparently is that amount so wealthy Thais can pass on to there children etc without taxes. Anyway, 10m baht or 20 it's plenty for a year without any building going on. And every year is 20m baht max every year every year not once now πŸ€”

it's based on how much you bring into the country in a calendar year and tax paid or not. Not how much you have in your account.

As I understand it you will pay tax if none has been paid already and most pensions have tax already paid when set up if they are SFPension and many Gov pensions are paid tax exempt. If the tax is less than you would pay here you will pay the difference even under dual tax provisions.
