How does the Germany–Thailand DTA protect me from double taxation?

The DTA sets out which country has the right to tax different income streams. For example:

• Government service pensions are generally taxed in Germany only.
• Private pensions, employment income, and investments may be taxed in Thailand if you are a Thai tax resident and remit the income into Thailand.
• If both countries tax the same income, Thailand generally grants a foreign tax credit for taxes already paid in Germany
