@Harry ********

and, of course, you have forgotten all about covid and the effect that had. The UK has recovered better from being out of the EU than it would have done still a member. And of course what I said earlier is absolutely true and relevant. Brexit was the best thing that happened to the UK. Subsequent , self serving, lying, hypocritical and anti British governments have been the worst.

@Harry ********

so how do you explain how other European countries have a weaker economy than the UK?

@Harry ********

back then there were 70+ baht to the pound. I suppose you blame Brexit for that too?

@Brian *******

don't forget the British government who have done little to capitalise on the benefits Brexit has to offer. They hate the people for voting to leave and now we are paying for it.

@Von *****

if you are to obtain an extension of stay based on marriage or retirement then 12 monthly transfers of 40k or 65k baht are required to qualify. It must be clear to immigration thatThese transfers came from overseas and not from Thailand. Some transfers are moved to a partner bank who then transfers them to your bank. These show as interbank transfer and are thus not acceptable.

@Von *****

did you use the same reason for transfer?

if you are in Thailand for more than 180 days you are liable for tax in Thailand regardless if you pay tax in your home country.

I pay tax in the UK on pensions and rental property. However, I spend more than 180 days in Thailand and beleive that I sm then committed to pay tax there . I also beleive thatv ny tax paid in UK is offset against tax owed in Thailand. It will be a complicated exercise. Furthermore any assets held before the end of last year are not taxable in Thailand. What I am worried about is the sale if my primary residececand rental property in the UK. Obviously I will pay cgt on the rental since I moved out but the rest is not taxable in the UK. This has the potential of raising a huge tax liability in Thailand if their proposal to tax world wide income goes ahead. If it does I will spend less than 180 days in Thailand in the year I sell. Could save thousands of pounds. This is the situation I beleive is the case after reading a lot of articles written by do called experts. One said that 150k baht a month is below the thai tax threshold anyway.

Assets held before the end of last year are not taxable when brought into Thailand so get the appropriate documents together to prove it.
