what are you ranting about dude? You have said nothing productive in all your tangents and rants. Do you feel cool when you rant?

So I actually went to speak with a Thai tax advisor. He told me that you are a Thai Tax Resident if you stay 180 days or more and also have a Thai Bank Account. Which means that is money you bring into Thailand. He said Thailand doesn’t have access to your offshore bank accounts because you don’t have a Thai tax id. To set up a bank account in Thailand you would need that. He said as of right now they can’t tax you without that. I am just telling you what he told me. A lot of you just want to attack people on the internet it seems. Don’t shoot at the messenger for sharing relevant information

according to the Thai tax professional I spoke to it’s 180 days but it’s money you “bring into Thailand” and the way you would do that is with a Thai bank accounts. If you have a foreign bank it’s just like how someone would have an “offshore bank account” as a tax haven. This is what he told me

@William ******
not really. Because you can show them your end of year balance for the year 2024 or whatever when you were not in the country for 180 days or more

its monthly income that is brought into Thailand. Thailand doesn’t have access to your foreign bank accounts or foreign income.

Gregory Sheard then Why would a Thai tax professional tell me that it is the factor? Money brought into Thailand is what is taxed.

@Pete ******
I spoke to a Thai tax accountant. That’s my point. Are you Thai tax attorney pete or do you spread false information?
