    The one and only. He passed away in February this year, leaving a wife and two sons.

    Expat Court Victories?

    There is at least one case. The case of the late Terry Collins et al. Perhaps someone here may know more than I do, and are prepared to explain. As far as I know, they won but the losing party refused to pay. This was a civil case.

    R.I. to apply tariffs of 7.5%

    I guess that could include the new tariff? Here is something relevant in Indonesian language. It seems Uno and Sri are on the same page. (from 13 hours ago) https://nasional.kompas.com/read/2018/08/14/19533931/sandiaga-sebut-rupiah-melemah-karena-impor-ini-kata-sri-mulyani

    R.I. to apply tariffs of 7.5%

    The recent fall in the value of the rupiah hasn't helped businesses (and consumers) either. I wonder what the new Samsung Note 9 will price at in rupiah? I can't help you with the list.

    R.I. to apply tariffs of 7.5%

    A small point admittedly, but prices won't necessarily rise by 7.5% after a 7.5% tariff.

    The Common Reporting Standard For Taxation

    I might rephrase as follows: This [CRS] will facilitate collecting tax owed according to Double tax agreements.

    I beg to differ. The principal aim of CRS is to better fight tax evasion and ensure tax compliance.

    I agree with you. But I am talking about 1995. It was a different world then. Edit: I will concede that the Double Tax Agreement between Australia and Indonesia entered into force in 1992.

    I think I better let this one go through to the 'keeper.

    The Common Reporting Standard For Taxation

    Purely as a matter for debate, do you feel Davita, that Indonesians who have "stored" money overseas (perhaps ill-gotten in their country in the main) are equally liable for taxes and fines as those who came here to work, having worked hard in their home country, invested wisely there, and have...

    I feel I should state that even though I am a new member I have been an avid reader of the forum and have learned so much here. This country has been good to me over many years. Perhaps too good.

    By the by, at least one foreign bank in Indonesia has done the same thing to its foreign customers as the Australian bank did through contacting Brian.

    The Common Reporting Standard For Taxation

    I certainly am not trying to scare anyone. I am of the opinion that some people who have considerable assets and income in more than one jurisdiction may face considerable back taxes and fines. Obviously, those not in this category have absolutely nothing to fear. Tax evasion, deliberate or...

    Davita, while what you say may all be true, I think you miss the point. This is about collecting tax owed under Double tax agreements.

    The Common Reporting Standard For Taxation

    If you don't update, emails such as Brian's typically state as follows: Should you not provide your tax residency certification or if you are otherwise identified as being a foreign tax resident, we are required to report information about you to the Australian Taxation Office who may then...

    The Common Reporting Standard For Taxation

    When completing an Indonesian tax return it is necessary to declare (all) assets as well as (all or most) income. This is so that the tax department can see where the income comes from.

    Most of this type of correspondence is via email or by a message sent to a dedicated inbox in an online account of the person's financial intermediary. I would think ignoring such emails would be fine for all parties concerned, if only a small amount of money were involved. For foreigners here...

    As far as I know, you should have reported all assets and income earned on them since you have been a tax resident of Indonesia. There are penalties.

    Living in Two Countries - Pros & Cons

    This is very interesting. Does it mean that Malaysia does not have double tax agreements with any other countries?

    The Common Reporting Standard For Taxation

    If I could add Brian, the tax rates which would be levied here on your foreign income are quite high, and one needs to consider the very significant penalties which would be applied for Indonesian taxes unpaid on past income.
