yes, taxed in your home country if you have been honest about it. If you have your pension paid directly into a Thai bank then the situation is different.
I can understand that because he had never paid tax on his rental income. My rental income is taxed in the UK so should not be taxed again in Thailand. Yes?
say you want a new car. 1.5 million baht or a condo for 3.5 million baht. Personally I would think twice before bringing in that money if it was taxed here. A second hand car and rental would do. Thailand loose out on a lot of money coming into the country. Or have I got it wrong?
