Me too, but that was the extreme. Even 500,000฿ per annum is going to eventually raise a few eyebrows if the revenue dept. do their job.

Attempting to bypass the tax regulations in this way is likely to be considered tax evasion, potentially resulting in severe penalties. Exactly. The way I understood this regulation when first advised was the main intention was to tax monies from Thais working overseas to families at home. It was t...

One student killed, 15 injured in van accident https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2798724/one-student-killed-15-injured-in-van-accident Here we go again. These minivans have strict passenger limits and seat belt laws until carrying school kids it seems. 25 kids, 1 driver and most likely a...

Did he explain how it works, because that is well in excess of the Thai income tax threshold?

Yes, I saw that earlier today and cringed. Probably on a par with Peter Shilton as manager. It is my belief that the Plymouth board have their heads screwed on, and this is just a bit of newspaper title tattle on a slow news day. That is what I'm hoping, anyway. They've just made a huge mistake with...

R E S U L T : horsey.png A BIG thank you to pharvey who was this week's guest judge. This week's top 5: 5th dtaai-maai with "John and Sally were one of the best panto horse partnerships in the business, but they did like to take their work home with them." 4th HHTel with "The mane ev...

This week's competition has now closed. pharvey, please watch your Inbox.

The VIP area is the top floor of the building with Rama IX painted on the side. It was strongly rumoured when being built, that floor was being built in case there was a special patient admitted (my son wasn't the intended patient :D). Having been up there, I can believe it. My son didn't request it...

I've just been listening to the Thai Football Podcast (in English) - a programme that yours truly has been invited to speak on, several times. This week's programme threw up an interesting piece of trivia. Buriram Utd have 'claimed' their 9th league title this season, but it's a lie. The first leagu...

Yes, that is Social Security.

Well there’s a lot of Thais who don’t want/cant afford to pay even B400 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Of course, but this thread is about the SMC, where as Farangs we pay 400฿ anyway, and Thais (even those on the 30฿ scheme) pay 300฿. I don't really want to drag this on, but even those on the ...

It cost my son 400฿ to see the specialist at his clinic. Subsequent MRI was covered by Social Security. Operation would have normally cost 200,000฿ at HHH. I'm not sure the 30฿ scheme would have covered that - he actually paid <15,000฿ with Social Security. Whatever it would cost via the hospital, t...

I'm not so sure you are right with that Pete. Many of the established medics here in Hua Hin (all hospitals) have their own after hours clinics in rented shop houses. They usually charge a lot less than the hospitals, and are a way of seeing the doc, in half decent conditions without having the mass...
