Should I spend one night in Bangkok or skip it for Phuket during my 6-day Thailand trip?

@Don ********

Sadly "outside Patong" is taking a dive as Russians take over everywhere. Phuket will be unaffordable within a few years and the Russian mafia will be running the show

Will my pension income be taxed in Thailand if I retire and have it paid into a Thai bank account?

I'm just amused that people are waiting "for an announcement" but don't know exactly what announcement they're waiting for! The order was published in October or November last year. That's the announcement. 😆

Where did you hear you can skip Bangkok? And yet go to Phuket? Oh my, you need to do further research!

But paying in both countries? It's a shame the UK didn't negotiate a better deal to look after its pensioners.

But he'll pay tax in UK and more tax in Thailand. So twice?

Unfortunately it appears the UK DTA doesn't exempt pensions, so you'll probably pay double tax in any pension brought into Thailand. Fortunately for Australians, pensions can only be taxed in the country in which they're paid (Big sigh of relief from all the Aussies!)

There's nothing to "find out" next year. Pensions are covered in the DTA, nothing to pay in Thailand 🤣🤣🤣. Laugh at yourself!

@Paulus ********

No need, it's confirmed in the DTA. Are you one of these people waiting for some grand announcement? It ain't going to happen because there's nothing to announce
