Why not? It's possible to reside in two countries

@Wylie ******

You too. Try not to get too upset because you couldn't get your Tax ID.

@Wylie ******

You keep pushing the work permit line. Work permit has nothing to do with taxation. I never said that. I was amused that you went totally unprepared to the tax office to make enquiries and when they showed you the door, you went into meltdown

@Craig ********

Saying anything in Thailand is taxable is INCREDIBLY STUPID, but so many idiots think one size fits all. Everybody's situation is different and every DTA is different.

@Elías *******

Credit Card usage in Thailand is most certainly a remittance. But you are free to kid yourself otherwise. Show me the law that says credit card purchases are not considered remittances!

@Wylie ******

When I went to the tax office, I'd already read the tax code and the DTA, something which you obviously didn't do. Sometimes we have to take a little responsibility for our own destiny. As the tax office were familiarised with my situation, they were able to give me the correct answers, and were prepared to put this in writing. You went the complete wrong way about it and requested a tax ID before you'd even ascertained if you had assessable income. It's people like you who make money for the "Tax Advisors" out there touting for your business (because they don't get a single baht out of me!)

@Elías *******

You'd better do your research! 😂😂😂

@Dany *******

My bank has my Australian Tax File Number. I don't have a Thai Tax ID and I've signed a document to verify this.

@Wylie ******

When I went to the tax office I guess I went better prepared than you. I took my Certificate Of Tax Residency from Australia and my Australian Pension Statement. That was enough to be told that I don't need to submit a tax return in Thailand as my tax residency is Australia. They subsequently sent me a letter to this effect. Very simple and they knew what they were doing (and if they got it wrong, who am I to post on Facebook claiming they don't know what they're doing?). How easy is that? And you're saying it's ME who lacks comprehension skills? 😂😂

@Wylie ******

And the civilised conversation led to you posting on Facebook that the tax office is "clueless"? With your long-winded ambiguous crap it's little wonder! 😂😂
