How long do you want to stay?

Some places you can book for a month. Like Sathon Saint View. One of my mates is a frequent guest. He books for a month but stays for 3 weeks. I stayed there 25 years ago. The pool is nice. I sat reading a book watching the BTS being test run.
Just a few days now and then just a change of scenery, short getaway

Can anyone recommend a hotel or guest house around 400 to 500 baht a night, any district. (No need for air conditioning)
I looked on the internet but they seem to be controlled/advertised by the large tour companies.

So what agency was it? They leave out the most important information
They can't publish their name for fear of deformation law suit against them

I'm wondering if it's taxed when it's brought into Thailand is it considered "brought into Thailand" If it's kept it a FCD account as a foreign currency or when it's changed into Thai baht?

Maybe the best course of action is to bring in (before the end of 2024) enough to live on until mid-2025, by then we will know all the details, and can make a decision on the future. In either case I wouldn't want to be dealing with that first year of these new tax laws, let the guinea pigs take the plunge first.
You mean bring it in before the end of 2023 because that's when it starts

Well no matter what any transfers into the country, could involve a risk of you having to prove where the money comes from.So in theory you could face a nightmare in having to prove your transfer was already taxed.
Of course in practical terms the RD-Officer will properly just as for an envelope for your new problem to “go away”.
I wish I could share your optimism.
Everyone said covid will be used to reset the economy seem they were right.

So it seems like it's definite then!! So how about some details then.
Am I taxed on the money I recive in my own country by Thailand or am I only taxed on the money I bring into Thailand? I have an FCD account is it taxed before I change it up into baht? or only after I change it up into baht?
Let's have some details Mr tax man or are you going to keep it a secret until the last minute.

I do receive SMSs from NBS to my Thai mobile number, but I don't recall ever receiving a OTP number. You have me puzzled there. NBS uses the mobile app for authorizing transactions.
Can you log in with the sms

I was told in a branch last month it is going to be phased out within a year for logging in and will have to use pass number to log in. App is easier as no SMS needed when logging in.
So how will we revive this pass number?

Can someone explain, simply, how a card reader works please, when it has no internet access.
I don't know the technical side but you put your card in, type in your pin number and the card reader shows a code

I've just been and played about with my profile online and it appears to accept overseas numbers, even giving guidance on how to enter with the country code etc. However, even removing my UK mobile number altogether, it still used it to send the OTP to, so it must be kept in the background somehow.
Edit. The help feature indicates it might stick if you log in with a card reader instead of the OTP as I was doing. I don't have one here to try.
Edit 2. While I was playing around I noticed the +66 in the Thailand number sometimes got corrupted to 6666, so a card reader is essential if you're going to play about with it so you don't get locked out completely.
"The help feature indicates it might stick if you log in with a card reader instead of the OTP as I was doing."
What do you mean might stick?
Did you manage to get the OTP sent to your Thai mobile?
My number is +660812345678 did you omit the zero before entering the number as +66812345678

Does anyone know if you can use a Thai mobile number to receive a one time log-in pass number from nationwide building society. If your using a UK address

You may be exempt from paying any tax full stop. Particularly if you hail from a country that that has a taxation agreement in place with Thailand.
Nobody knows yet because nothing that is relevant to most expats has been clarified yet, despite what the so called experts will tell you.
So far it's nothing more than another Thailand train wreck.
A UK Thai tax agreement covers some but not all income, it covers income from property but not income/interest from bank or building society so you will have to pay Thai tax on any building society and bank interest you receive in the UK.

There may be a better way.
GiffGaff will happily send you a SIM with a UK phone number.
Your bank can then use this number to send you OTPs, which you can access in Thailand, using your mobile phone.
It helps if you have a dual SIM phone.
GiffGaff is quick and easy to set up. Put 10GBP credit on the SIM and send an SMS or make a call every so often to keep the number active.
What's OTPs

Hi is there any UK bank or building society that will allow you to use a Thai phone number for a banking app to send pass codes

the problem though is the tax threshold is a lot higher in the Uk than in Thailand, so you may fall below the level needed to pay tax in the UK but you cannot be below the tax threshold in Thailand based on what you have to show as income to get a retirement visa. So I will come down to interpretation - you can show you have been assessed for tax in the UK but as you cannot show you have paid any it may well be that you would have to pay in Thailand
There will be no personal allowance for foreigners in thailand

If Thailand had a Reciprocol Agreement regarding UK pensions it would mean that uk retirees living in Thailand would have more money to spend in Thailand thus benefiting the Thai economy, good for Thailand.
help us and help Thailand as well.
