We took an extra 23 k case on Thailand air it was nearly 1000 pounds

No i think it tax on money coming into the country after January 2024

@Sharron ******

nothing clear yet but it has been approved,i just thought I would enlighten you as per the situation now good luck,and certainly if you where definite about coming it would be better bringing your money before January in case you had to pay as much as 30%

@Chizel ******

sorry no try typing in new tax laws thailand January 2024 thats where i found it on google

@Sharron ******

I would still advise keep your money in USA until you have lived 1 year in thailand ,have a look at new tax law starting in January 2024 ,20% tax on money you bring in up to one million baht 25% up to 2 million,and 30 % there after ,but in thailand it just mite not happen,but it has gone through parliament,sorry to sound alarmist but better to be informed off what is happening,having said that I’m also 76 lived hear 12 years full time to lived hear part time before,good luck to you

Some advice live hear 1 year before you sell your house in usa

@Sandie *******

ok LOL it’s such a small world

Start visa are you over 50 so you can get retirement visa ? You have to get pet passports for the dogs and cat ,(have you spent enough time in thailand to be shore you wont to live there ,you do realise your uk state pensions will be frozen living in thailand ,my advice would be if you have property in uk rent it out for extra income it will go up in value,better than in thailand ,if you bring money into thailand get the paperwork so you can get it out if you ever want to go back , and of course you will need private health care .good luck

Go on your gut feeling,
