you are assuming less than 180 days in any calendar year in Thailand. If so, your original statement is rather academic. If you are over 180 days in Thailand then you become tax resident in both countries and the DTA states how various items are taxed. The age pension, as opposed to a work for the government type pension is taxable income in Thailand if the funds are remitted.

@Andy ***********

this is incorrect. Please check with a CPA. Andy as you are from Sydney you would know that Aussie age pension is assessable income in Australia and also in Thailand. Your income MAY be below the personal allowance for tax, and it may not especially if you have rental income for instance. To say, as a blanket statement, pensions are not taxed in Thailand is frankly just plain incorrect.

Then it may go to 'final review' for another weeks.

@Sean ********

if an offer letter is countersigned by both parties, is this not a defacto contract?

CRS data feed. First one into Thailand in late 2023. Too easy, they already have the data feeds from over 120 countries.

Podcast from the Bangkok Post today has a lot of detail.

@Stephan **********

no idea. All very new I guess.

@Jolene **************

yes, most of the soft options are a little weird. Guess they want to throw the gates open and get people there to spend money
