Does the new tax residency rule in Thailand affect expats' decision to stay long term?

Nick ************

Yes. Say I'm thinking of buying a condo for 3 million baht and a new car for 1.75 million baht. If I have to pay tax on that money when I bring it in to Thailand its nit going to happen. That's 4.75 million baht that will never come to Thailand. I will continue to rent and make do with my 5 year old car.

because you may have paid tax on the money somewhere else already. Obviously income generated in Thailand is taxed in Thailand.

What are the alternatives to Wise for sending money from the U.S. to Thailand after TTB stopped accepting remittances?

Nick ************

it is more likely to show as ftt if you send to 1 of 3 banks one of which is Bangkok Bank. If this is what you need then get Wise to tag your account. I have had successful transfers marked as international monthly for the last 15 months to BB.

Are immigration offices closed on public holidays for TM30 and 90-day reports?

Nick ************

It's easy enough to set up 90 day reporting and tm30 on line and do both yourself as long as you can get the documents required from your landlord. Have done it twice and it saves having to bother my landlady every time I stay away for a night or two.
