    1. The Thai tax brackets are very high because there are limited deductions. In the US and elsewhere the tax per income is lower than 35 per cent and there are applicable deductions. 2. The missing info the Thai gov is irresponsibly not providing is clarity about honoring DTA agreements or not. Also, unverified is if Social Security benefits from another country are tax free or not. We are half way through 2024 and there is no clarity. Shameful.

    My tax income in the UK is processed by tax return every year through the tax system. I never earn enough to pay tax. But under the Thai system the same money could be taxed because the threshold here is a measly 150k Baht per year which I believe was the limit set in 1951 when the law came out. Surely they have to increase the threshold to account for cost of living in the last 73 years. Also I cannot just live here 179 days. I have given up everything to live here permanently since 2007. Our land and house is here for example. I have been married to a Thai for 17 years. I cannot just uproot. I am 65 years of age now. Any advice or hope.

    Ontain a bank statement of the balance on an account as of 31.12.23 in your home country. This amount may be transferred into Thailand tax-free. (It’s a one-time deal.)

    Your point about taxes in your home country may be rare and at least not so good for the US. Yes you can use the double taxation rules etc but you must manage your money carefully to lower or avoid Thai taxes. Example : A US retiree with a home base in Florida earning $50,000 a year ends up paying about 10% Federal tax and no tax to Florida as there is no state tax. The Thai tax is graduated and only 500,000 baht and less, which is about $15,000 is taxable at 10%. The amount above 10% would be taxed by Thailand at higher graduating rates and net you will pay more tax than in your home country of the U.S. Social Security from the US is not taxable in Thailand so this helps. One question I have is, is the gross social security not taxable in Thailand or only the net after paying US tax, which seems more likely?
    Anyone who understand and can explain further and point to links with new and updated information please do.

    If you bring in your wealth before a 180 days, what time is for the year? Are you exempt?

      No. For 2024 possible tax liability it doesn't matter when funds are transfered. If you reside within Thailand 180 days or more, you may have tax liability.

    For US expats, like I will be, the burden won't be much if anything at all, because we are taxed in the US and there is a dual tax treaty. Now we may have to pay any difference, but that will be nothing for probably 80% of retired expats. For the rest, based on the cost of living difference, they will still come out ahead while enjoying the country. Worth it.

      @@PrimeNewsJournal The video contains no more information than what is stated in the headline. I would guess your organization is part of the news/entertainment media business, same old air/talk I used to hear on cable television before I stopped wasting my time. Give the robot narrating this my regards.
