I'm not so concerned about Thailand taxes. I've got a military pension and if another country declares me as any type of resident, my pension will be decreased by 30%. I'm giving up my Thailand retirement visa. I'll do visa exemption travel and spend less than 180 days in Thailand.
Thanks JC! I’ve watched several Thai tax videos and yours is the only one that discusses co-mingled moneys - government pension and earned income. Separating bank accounts is my solution. I hope Thailand does not institute taxation on worldwide income as it would force me to stay < 180 days.
I’m only 17 minutes into the video, but the word tax evasion in Thailand is not something I ever wanted to hear. It’s certainly something that gets your attention.
Thank you J.C for this Posting. This is Crystal clear , This professional made it so simple to understand that anyone with a primary school's reasonable level of education can understand .
The tax on foreigners is not a "income" tax unless a peson actually earns income from Thai sources. It is more like a "resident" tax or if one transfer money into Thailand then it would be a "transfer" tax. Rather difficult to live iin Thailand without transfering money into a Thai bank account unless one uses the ATM method. The ATM method is costly (220 per transaction). Been in Chiang Mai for years and planning to return to the US or go elsewhere. Many i know are considering the same type of exit plan.
@tombkk1322 Now just planning on 1) Going back to the US (California) 2) Another overseas location. Albania offers 1 year visa exempt for Americans or even Cebu in the PI and try for the SRRV retirement visa. SRRV is not easy to obtain but once granted it is for life with an annual renewal fee.
@@mikeparker6322 I agree, the Philippines SSRV might be a good option. CEBU or maybe BGC might be alternatives to Bangkok for me. I also have ties in California.
Very interesting and useful information. One question : Has all this been confirmed as being enforced in FY 2024 (rather than just saying they are reverting to the earlier ruling) ? It seems to me that the Thai Government still has to confirm alot of detail (ie some of the information advised in this video) around these new taxation changes(?)
@@kippsguitar6539 Thanks. Since you found the answer I would really appreciate if you could you give the timestamp in the video where it was answered. Or re-read my question which I did asking if there is any more Thai Govt details or rulings "rather than just saying they are reverting to the earlier ruling" @3:33 in the video referring to a broad Thai Gov statement from back in Sept 2023. The reason I am asking this question and I see a relevant comment below from another Legal company "Integrity Legal says this is all proposed!" - which was my layman's understanding, all this is still in proposal stage - so the reason for my question.
So if you want to buy a new car using accessable income will you have to pat tax on this purchase down the lin as you brought the money into the country that you made in 2024. If so that can increase the cost of the car by potentialy 25% ?
If u are already taxed in your country why u pay tax? Money is not even earned in Thailand, seems like their loss in the long run 💯 I will spend my money in different countries for six months
It's standard for many countries to have to pay tax twice if your tax rate in your home country is lower or if you are taking advantage of a tax break initially, absolutely normal
JC thanks for the video. It’s making more sense now than ever. I respectfully ask any reader if this is also what you took from the video. I’ve been confused about parsing out income from a commingled savings account. If I have an end of year (2024) account balance of say 50k usd and am not a Thai tax resident this year or next year but am a tax resident in 2026 I can then bring in up to 50k from that account and it will all be considered savings with no filing obligation. Thanks in advance for any answer.
No they don't: you are confusing this with an internal Thailand discussion re taxing worldwide income WHETHER OR NOT it is remitted to Thailand. What is discussed in this video is law NOW.
@@alancurtis9155 I think this the problem for most expats. It is not clear that this is law "NOW" vs proposed. I asked the same question above because even in this very informational video, it is not made clear. The confirmed base point of the whole discussion is only an early reference to a Thai Gov statement from back in Sept 2023. Happy to be corrected. Perhaps you can help?
For me , this sounds way too complex . My only income is an aged pension . I do not need to submit a Tax Return here in australia . If i were to retire over in Thailand , i would expect to be left alone . The visa laws and now this "income" tax are too complicated for someone as simple as myself . I shall visit for fewer than 180days .
So If i selling my house Take the money with me to thailand then i have to pay tax . I also have little money in the bank Eks 400000 to the visa ,and i pay tax in my country when i will have pension do i then have to pay any tax in thailand when i will stay here with my wife ,when i go on pension. If so its totally crazy,i bring money to thailand in order to buy a house which i never can own ,then i have to pay tax of that money. Insane
@9:09 JC,s guest says that both US and Canadian pensions are not taxable. Have I been concerned about nothing? According to the Tax Treaty between Canada/Thailand it appears to say Article 18 Pensions: taxable only in the first mentioned state.
JC i think i just thought of an additional lopehole what if you say took a trip to Singapore and took out money from there ATM on your trip ! then that could not be considered money remited to Thailand...
If I have an obligation due to owning property and renting it out. Does that also mean I have to now include all money I remit if I don’t live in Thailand for 180 days. That is money I bring while holidaying
So it goes like this. We now need to spend 8000-12000 baht a year out of our budget to show the tax debt that we already paid tax in our home country. This is a form of tax in itself. And the winner is..... Expat Tax Thailand who has gained massive business out of expats, many of who can't afford it. Well done. Amazing that in Australia if I get a tax agent to do my basic tax it's $350.00, here it's going to be $400-$600, how does that work??? I just done my tax in Australia myself online, took all of about 15 minutes!
I lived in Thailand during the great old days ..they appreciated our contributions to their economy and society. Yup there are always bad guys but they always were and will be a small percentage. Now over the past 2-4 yrs, little by little are the trying to squeeze every last Baht out of us? Great teachers and investment folks have left, will others now leave? Thailand's poor depend on those foreigners who drop money there. Will they too now suffer? Time will tell but truth is ...if reasonableness isn't forthcoming ...retiring in Thailand maybe over regardless of any benefits.
Is my understanding correct, you can apply for a retirement visa using the funds from previous tax years to bring in any remittance without liability and if you spend less that 180 days per year or less as a retiree you don't have to file for tax in thailand or declare income source?

There is not much to fear for the tax for most retirees in Thailand. If it will be that way, just do some trips to Cambodia, Vietnam og the Philippines each year and you will stay less than 180 days a year in Thailand. And VIOLA! no tax in Thailand! Problems solved.

Can I bring in 20million this year and not spend 180 days in Thailand. Not being a resident not pay tax. Then the next year spend 200 days and bring nothing in and get out of it again
If I have owned my house since 2003 and sell it today then bring the money into Thailand do I need to pay tax on all the proceeds from the sale if I bring it in?
This will kill the property market in Thailand if what this man says is true. Expats will no longer risk transferring large sums of money to purchase a house if they are going to be taxed at 35% regardless of whether they paid tax in their home country.
If you can demonstrate that you had the purchase funds as at 31 December 2023, I believe you will not be taxed. Carl mentioned several times that only income etc earned/received from 1 January 2024 might be assessable. I do know from a contact in the real estate world that enquiries from non-Thais have tanked.

It's a nightmare scenario. Imagine buying a condo for 4000001 baht (over 4 Million baht is 35%) as a Thai tax resident and remitting that from abroad. That's potentially 1.4 Million baht tax.
All of the youtube videos are not clear about Thailand tax policy. Nobody mentioned about using American bank to withdraw cash in Thailand. How can the Thai government know anything about your financial situation?
