Was told if you bring it into Thailand you will be taxed on it.Basically try and bring in an amount that is not greatly over your tax allowances if you can

Thanks Big Boy and Dannie Boy for the quick replies. I was leaning towards that thought.

Hi All

Could anyone tell me if I would be taxed on monies transferred from uk into my Thai bank account by my sister who is coming over on holiday?

We were told by HMRC we no longer need to file tax returns to HMRC.

Yes! Must have thb800,000 in bank and now must have their medical insurance. A double bubble hit. I thought proof of THB 800,000 in bank was so that you could pay your medical fees and living costs. Now they have doubled up the requirements.

They seem to be forcing you to take a policy that has much less cover than what we have with BUPA. At least we had a choice but the cost of their basic policy is the same as my BUPA but with less coverage. Nipping my brain this one and seems no way out
