@Keith ******

@Keith ******

not especially your pension country then ? I thought it had to prove your pension income ?

@Keith ******

I thought it had to be from a bank abroad ( home) .

@Frank ********

very unfair.

do you know yet the limit of how much you can bring in tax free? It's not for me, under 6 months is plenty time. My uncle is still not sure whether to go ahead with the care home . It is quite costly starting at 800 000 Baht a year ( not expensive compared to the west ) but as you age the costs rise. That money would enter Thailand by his bank . Not forgetting health insurance.

no sorry, but easy to find online.tip , join "ASEAN NOW. " It's very complete all in one. You will get expert advice from real experts. You have the idiots of course but top left chose your question example , travel Thailand, health, banking, tax.Visas. There are bonafide doctors too. One helped me really well!

@Bas *********

pS ,also. I love having 2 good seasons in the year.

there was no way I was going to declare everything I have back home. I would never become a tax resident anywhere but my homeland where I profit from the very best nearly free healthcare, I trust my bank, my pension , and all the advantages. I would not give that up.

I've always spent around 5 months in Thailand and rented. In the days of yore I used the double entry visa, and since the 60 day exempt plus 30 days easily done at immigration. Then I leave, I think I know well the rest of S E Asia having stayed multiple times since 1984, usaly at least 10 days or more, and then re entering for another 2 months. That once a year . Never had a problem personally and have never broken any rules. Choose your visa, or not, wisely.
