Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

You need to ask your bank for a statement showing the transactions supporting your Credit Advice transactions that you are using as proof of income. Anything else is irrelevant.

Re: Tax residency in Thailand and taxing overseas income

About 7 or 8 years ago, my UK bank HSBC, asked me to complete a tax residency statement and insisted that as I was living in Thailand that I provide a Thai TIN number as well. I’d never been near a Thai tax office (still haven’t by the way) but doing some research I found advice saying that the TIN...

Re: Tax residency in Thailand and taxing overseas income

This article seems to confirm everything I've been saying, with the exception of having to prove tax already paid. However, it does talk about the Hua Hin Tax office, and proof is what they are insisting on for me. I have paid my UK tax for years and after completing my annual Tax return I then rec...

Re: Baked Beans

I now buy Thai baked beans Ayam brand but you have to buy the tins marked English recipe. Ayam also has two other types of baked beans but they are not so good. You can buy the English Recipe beans at Lotus, BluPort, Nany's or many other places and they cost about 65 Baht per tin. American Baked Be...

Re: Major Economic Issues For Thailand

In view of the above forecasts why does the Thai baht not collapse to 60bht to £1 as it was in 2007. ?

Re: New deposit rules for banks

I find this whole issue confusing - so as I pay my UK taxes and have the usual tax return to complete each year and then later on receive the HMRC tax calculation. I then pay or receive and that's the end,
Does this help me with all this TIN business ?

Just done some quick calculations NB based on ThaiMet data and guidelines from Weather and climate Up to and including Thursday Hua Hin has only had 12% of the rain it should have had to this point this calender year! A sobering thought. According to ThaiMet we've had only 158 mm of rain this year....

Re: Upcoming general election fundamentally flawed: Human Rights Watch

Fantastic early poling results. Pheu Thai and Move Forward expected to have the most first and second most votes. A coalition would be the result the people will crave for.
