Tax on transfer?
I was told by a lawyer that because of the legal status of Expats (Tourists) and the complications of income taxes, the banks in Thailand take the easy route and just tax the appropriate level of income tax and send to the Tax Office. I believe that when a bank account is opened by an Expat that has a Work Visa and is employed, then that account has a different legal status when it comes to income taxes on interest earnings. But as we long term Expats all know, how things are done in Thailand is different from bank to bank, and from province to province, and from branch to branch. Definitely not refundable. There is only one thing worse than telling a Thai in authority that they are wrong, and that is proving it - so as in most things, it is best to just let it go. -

Still waiting for a response from the bank. I assume it is not specific to foreigners and not refundable :)
