I had both eyes done. 6 months que each time.

I do believe you are mistaken. Comprehensive insurance covers all your healthcare expenses in Thailand, both in-patient and out-patient (OPD)

You make no sense. Insurance Co's do cover day surgery as it is cheaper than keeping someone overnight when the proceedure does not require it.

I had Cataract Surgery 3 weeks ago at Srinagarind Hospital at KKU in Khon Kaen. No overnight stay is required. Though I am covered by my wife's Gov Medical plan, the surgery receipt showed B13,000. I would think the charge is the same for those who are self pay. The Dr's name is Ornsiri Thanathani.. She is the best. She also has a clinic in KK BTW. KKU has all the most up to date equipment.

Not common anymore.. My US Bank charges 0 fees when I use my UD Debit or Credit card anywhere in the world. No conversion fees, no ATM fees no online shopping fees. Thai Banks are the most greedy in the world.

You think I'm a Spy for the RD. Your just a paranoid a***ole

Well your choice. IMO, I will never keep any large amount of $$$ here when I can get interest back home

You never gave them required proof of income?

It's done everyday to extend Visa"s. Your blowing it out of proportion.

Do expect them not to enforce it. The RD will be going after all those who are not paying their taxes. Thai Nationals included.

What does that have to do with the new Tax Laws

You are correct. My wife's opinion is those who are deferring income to the next calander year will pay taxes on those funds brought into Thailand. Those who are not have nothing to worry about

What I meant was, if you are not subject to tax now based on your countries agreement with Thailand, you won't have any additional taxes here.

You are blowing this out of proportion. It's not going to happen

Yes, I do think that number is bogus. There are 100's of Thai millionaires.

Thereare no details yet. Plus all tax laws will have exceptions. Everyone here is just speculating. Keep in mind, if your country has a tax agreement with Thailand, nothing will change.

Sorry, don't know

I didn't say that.. BKK may have 50+. Smaller provinces less

My wife. She is a lawyer and works for the RD. She applied for this new position.

I don't think it works that way. If you pay tax in the US you don't pay tax in Thailand

I tend to doubt it. That is why the RD is hiring a lawyer for each province.

The new law closes the loop on income earned in 1 year and brought into Thailand the next year.

To date, RD employees have not been given any details on this new tax law. No use getting bent out of shape at this time..

They will enforce it. In fact, the Revenue Department is in the process of hiring 70 Lawyers.. One in each province to assure tax collection.
