If you closely read section 19 as quoted in freeworld's post, you'll see that the limitations cited are all predicated upon a return having been filed. It is completely silent on limitations when no return is filed. I am not sure whether the RD's regulations deal with the limitation on non-filing elsewhere or whether this falls back on the Thai Civil and Commercial Code with respect to the statute of limitations for various issues.

With their orange Jesus in the dock, it would seem strange for Republicans to make crime a campaign issue. -

Thai tourism sector proposes 300-baht tax to counter over-tourism
Etaoin Shrdlu replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"...Surawat suggests that the tax would not deter foreign tourists..." If the problem is over-tourism, you want the tax to deter tourism. -
Debit Card.
Etaoin Shrdlu replied to NoshowJones's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
A family member had unauthorized debit card transactions and contacted the bank. The bank investigated and determined that the transactions were indeed fraudulent and reimbursed the amount taken. It took a couple of weeks. -
condo management refuse to repair dampness problem

Are you working directly with the company that has been hired to maintain the building, or have you escalated this to the condo's juristic person manager? -

It is becoming more and more difficult not to see the Republican Party as a criminal organization. -
Citibank Thailand operates under Thai banking regulations but structurally it is a branch of Citibank N.A. This means that accountholders are creditors of Citibank N.A. and not a locally incorporated subsidiary or joint venture. Citibank's liability to accountholders would not be limited to any assets held in Thailand, but rather to Citibank N.A.'s balance sheet in the US. It isn't part of Citibank's US retail operations if that is what you mean.

Haven't yet tried the UOB TMRW app. Will wait until after 6 pm on Monday. Citibank's operation here is a branch of the US corporation and not a subsidiary or joint venture. Accountholders therefore have recourse to Citibank US's balance sheet and Citibank is rated A+ by Standard & Poor's. Some may say it isn't important because the Thai government will insure deposits up to 1 million baht, but the Thai government's sovereign debt rating of BBB+ is lower than that of Citibank.

It is possible to have a Skype subscription that allows for unlimited calls to landline and mobile numbers in the US, including toll-free numbers, for a flat fee of about $40 per year. This comes in particularly handy when calling government agencies like the IRS or large corporates that keep a caller on hold for lengthy periods before a representative becomes available. I think most references to Federal government operating times are east coast time unless otherwise stated. We're eleven hours ahead of the eastern time zone while the US is on DST and 12 when not. This time of year, call after 8 pm Thailand time and you should be good.

Russia : Any old-timer anti-war activists out there?

Yeah, I remember those days and the protest songs. Needed some of that attitude to keep GWB out of Iraq and Afghanistan. -
I think Israel has largely turned the corner with respect to its Arab neighbors. They aren't the ones threatening Israel at the moment. In fact, the Saudis and Jordanians assisted in knocking Iran's drones and missiles out of the air on their way towards Israel. It is the Iranians, not the Arabs, that are supporting Hamas and Hezbollah against Israel. So, no, Israel will not use nukes against its Arab neighbors. Iran may be something different, however.

Did you know this about 7-Eleven (Thailand)?
Etaoin Shrdlu replied to george's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yes, exactly! I think the difference is that CP sees the 7-11 stores as their main distribution network and not a "convenience" for the busy or lazy. -
What insurance policy do i need?
Etaoin Shrdlu replied to DonniePeverley's topic in Insurance in Thailand
If your partner and daughter are American and are based here in Thailand due to your daughter's studies, then they would probably be best served by getting annual medical insurance policies and not travel insurance policies. Thai-based insurers usually offer less generous coverage, and some of them may not have favorable claims-paying attitudes, so your best bet may be to find an offshore health insurer. Pre-existing conditions may be excluded or attract an additional premium depending upon the insurer's underwriting guidelines. Your situation may be a bit different if your stays in Thailand are short. Travel insurance may be ok if you only expect treatment for urgent care and don't need treatment for anything long-term. Travel insurance will also exclude many pre-existing conditions. You'll also have to consider how travel insurance might interface with your US insurance. If you have insurance in the US and would expect to be repatriated in the event of serious accident or illness, make sure any repatriation or medivac benefits under the travel policy are sufficient.
