Re all this tax talk..on and on!l According to Bengamin Heart from Integrity Legal Bkk. If you watch the latest on the 'Tax Issue you'll find it from the " horses mouth "so to speak. This guy is an Amerian lawyer and a Thai National practising in Bkk for years. For months on on end he has been trying to explain to those that watch his utube that Thailand has not made a single change to any tax laws at all all at all.... Everything is just the same as it has been . If you're interested enough and want to relax a bit dail up Integrity Legal youtube. He has delivered many many speeches on the "Tax Issue " He has great difficulty trying to explain to those that have sought out " advice" from what he says are illegally operating tax consultants/advisers. He is adamant that no person other than a Thai National is permitted to engage as a paid person/firm . It is a restricted occupation in Thailand and it has whipped up unnecessary hysteria.
I have no axe to grind with him in any way but I'm very glad he has his utube available.
Correct. Some on here don't like him or trust him because he is an American. There is no cure for contempt. The contemptuous may do whatever they wish and do what is best for them.

After meeting with Mr. Hart, I can assure you that he knows of that which he speaks. He has the receipts.

There is no codified law in Thailand that requires what so many hair-on-fire foreigners have been screaming at us about taxes here; and anyone who is an American in Thailand is sitting in the best possible situation with all of this no matter what happens -- unless the Amity Treaty is broken or the DTA between The US and Thailand is ignored.

Afghanistan and Iran are not part of the EU, but they would be very worthy totalitarian members.

Based on his website, YouTube channel, and various reviews, Mr Hart Esq. seems to be a competent visa/immigration lawyer.

Beyond that, particularly in relation to tax matters, I would be looking elsewhere.

Look no further than Friday's flat earth meet up at the car wash which is Oodorn's hub of gobby white farang tax experts of ALL nationalities* (just not all ethnicities since La-lee checked out...RIP).

PS: they don't do YouTube's or Tik Toks so you need to be there or be square.

* There's a temporary vacancy in representing the Land of the Long White Latte so interested antipodeans take note. Kiwi taxes are as relevant as anyone's, despite their people being quite frankly more odd than Canucks..
