Question 1

I am a 79 year old Australian and my only income is my Australian Government Age Pension which is transferred directly from the Australian Reserve Bank to my Thai bank every 4 weeks. This pension is tax exempt in Australia. My question is will my pension be taxed in Thailand under this new tax system that Thailand is about to introduce

Chas Begley · Accepted Answer

This is assessable income. Its likely with your allowances and deductions you will have a little of no tax to pay. We can help you file this with our ‘Essential tax filing’ which is THB7,500 per year.
