Wonderful irony it is easier to be an illegal immigrant in many Western countries than a legal one here.
I have been wondering if with a falling baht will the thresholds rise the 400k married O the 800k retirement deposits are getting cheaper.Or the monthly income routes too.
The threat to tax investment, and potentially income not repatriated in same year is still moot and I doubt will be enforceable on those of modest means, who could just divert remittances in dribbles to family members. A tax at bank level will cause chaos due to some nations having reciprocal treaties.
The immigration requirements have been at these levels a very long time used to be 100k then 200k for married then 400.
In the past such rises were grandfathered meaning that those in at the old rate stayed there as folks in their retirement had few opportunities to increase income.
There has been some debate elsewhere, we can be sure with inflation it becomes more likely.
For those still on multi entry or reluctant to deposit there are always the agents?
