Reader question: My tax exemption on Dutch pension will soon expire

Henk, does it really say that you pay tax in Thailand? I saw that form a few weeks ago and it's not there; I think it says that you have to submit proof that you are registered with the tax authorities in Thailand.

This blog says a lot about the exemption and the advice is, if Thailand does not want to register you, tell Heerlen and simply ask for your new exemption. Include supporting documents such as the stamps of retirement extensions or extensions due to marriage or otherwise, that you live here permanently, that Thailand is the country of your main residence, that you spend your money here, you may have bills to show, in short, read the tax file of post-actives, check again 6 to 9.

This matter is in motion, Heerlen is not compliant, unfortunately, and I still have no answers to my questions.

What you can also do is visit the Thai service again and try registration; people may have changed their minds after those 5 years.

The following can be found on the website of the revenue office, on the basis of which you can obtain a tin (tax identification number). It must have been due to the ignorance of the employee that you did not obtain this. If you look in Thai tax law, you can therefore read that not filing a tax return is punishable.

1.Taxable Person
Taxpayers are classified into “resident” and “non-resident”. “Resident” means any person residing in Thailand for a period or periods aggregating more than 180 days in any tax (calendar) year. A resident of Thailand is liable to pay tax on income from sources in Thailand as well as on the portion of income from foreign sources that is brought into Thailand. A non-resident is, however, subject to tax only on income from sources in Thailand.

I recently applied for and received an exemption for 5 years. Received a form in English at the revenue office that I have a tax number.
Sent this form with the application and obtained an exemption without any problem. The fact that this should not be necessary for the Dutch tax authorities is not relevant to me. I adhere to the tax treaty and pay tax on the part allocated to Thailand.

If you really want to pay Thai tax, you must first seek help from a Thai tax advisor. The first time it is quite complex and a number of one-off things have to be done (eg requesting a tax number). You can do it yourself the second year. An advisor costs something between 15.000 and 25.000 but it is worth it, there are many things to deduct so tax is quite low if your pension (excluding AOW) is below a million. AOW and civil servant pensions must always be taxed in the Netherlands.

To everyone, I applied for an exemption this month, now my question is, will I receive a message by post or e-mail that I will be granted an exemption or not?
On my first indication application from bpfbouw, she still deducted the payroll tax, and now that I have received the official application, this is less than with my previous application??
Here it says payroll tax without payroll tax credit, maybe someone can explain to me what this means.
Thank you in advance for the further information and I will certainly continue until I succeed,
