My Thai mother-in-law has heard that she (aged 74, widow) risks losing her state pension of THB 700 per month if she receives more than THB 100.000 per year in cash donations; to her bank account.
Reader question: Tax-free gift to a foreign resident
I 'discovered' that in the Netherlands you cannot just give money to someone. Above a certain amount, the tax would also like to get a piece of it. Strange but true. Of course I've googled but I'm not quite there yet.
By the end of this year, the 'Tax file for post-active persons' will be expanded with questions and answers about 'gifts after' and 'bequeaths after' emigration from the Netherlands to Thailand. The compilers are open to questions, experiences and suggestions. If you have any questions, you can ask them in a comment.
The matter. My girlfriend worked her ass off in Bangkok for 25 years and sent everything she could spare to her parents, who, by the way, were large landowners.
