Hi Pete, it sounds like you have an exciting journey ahead. Moving back to Thailand after living in the U.S. can be a big transition, and I understand your concerns about financial matters and compliance.

To assist American expats with these specific issues, you may want to look for financial advisory firms or accounting firms in Bangkok that specialize in helping expatriates. These companies often have expertise in dealing with tax, financial reporting, FATCA, FBAR, and other related matters for U.S. citizens living abroad.

You can start by conducting an online search for such firms, read reviews and testimonials, and perhaps ask for recommendations from other expats in the area. It’s essential to find a reliable and reputable service that can guide you through the complexities of international financial matters.

Remember to do thorough research and choose a company that has experience in handling situations similar to yours. They should be able to offer personalized advice and solutions based on your specific needs and circumstances.

Best of luck with your contract negotiation and your plans to relocate to Bangkok to be with your family! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

@thepcman Thank you so much for your suggestions! I've been researching blogs and online forums. Although there are many consultants in BKK and some cut-and-dried online solutions but didn't quite find commentary or reviews for or against these. A lot of them seemed to also specialize in retirement, but I have decades to go before I can retire. I don't have many American expats contacts in Thailand and my hiring was the first true international hire for my company so I'm kind of anxious about the process and timing on my side. I'll keep looking though, but am also wondering if this is something for which the Thai PEO that my company is using could provide suggestions.
