Taxation of Tax Residents - look at the video 3:15.

Interesting 3 points made.

Some very good info in here I had not heard before. One thing that was new to me is banks report to revenue all accounts with over 2 million THB in or 400+ transactions a year.

Bottom line for DTV holders - unless you are remitting large amounts of money you earned in the same tax year you are tax resident then do not worry so much about tax.

EDIT: Around 30 mins they clear up ATM and CC use - yes it counts as remmitance

Hello, I am going to apply for a DTV. I was wondering if the passport should still be at least 5 years valid or not? Also, is HMC better than Hanoi? Thank you very much for your help.

Does anyone know if you are running out of pages in your passport which your dtv visa is in, can you use another passport to enter or get the visa re issued into the new visa?

Please correct me if im wrong but 180 days tax resident is from Jan 1 to Dec 31 right?

Let's say on my 1st entry I stayed 149 days in 2025 and and left before Dec then I re-entry on Dec 1st and stayed until Dec 31 which technically be 180 days. I continue to stay until 2026, and leave February 1. Technically speaking, I shouldn't be a tax resident right?

I am visiting my partner in Sisaket in August for three weeks. Last time I was there for 14 months on a retirement Visa but this time as it's a short stay it will be on Visa exceptions. My question is does anyone know with the new digital arrival card whether there will be an issue listing accommodation at our private address instead of a commercial property like a hotel.

Hi, what are the documents required for first time 90 day report in Chiang Mai?

Has anyone successfully get a 180 days stamp after re-entering Thailand after their 6 month course expired and not renewed a new course? I am under the Muay thai dtv, but want to change to remote worker, must I re-apply my visa?

Hi there! A few quick questions:

* Has anyone got DTV Remote Worker approved by HCMC with only 3 months of bank statements that show 500k?

* Can a still active tourist visa affect DTV application negatively? Let me explain: planning to go to thailand and so when I enter I'll get the usual tourist 60 days.

I'll be leaving thailand after 3 weeks and then applying for DTV from Vietnam. Technically 60days visa is in my passport still active? Is that a probelm?

Thank you for any info!

Thailand DTV Visa Approved – Here’s How I Did It 🇹🇭

Just got approved for the Digital Nomad (DTV) visa and wanted to share my experience in case it helps anyone else. I applied from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, giving myself about two weeks before I’d need to leave — and thankfully it worked out.

⸻

What I submitted:

Since they only allow one PDF per category, I combined multiple things smartly. Here’s what I submitted:

• UK Ltd company incorporation doc (I contract through my own business)

• Bank statement (1 month)

• Passport photo

• Client invoices

• A PDF showing my experience and portfolio

• A signed letter stating I don’t intend to work for Thai clients or companies

⸻

Financials — mine weren’t perfect:

Most of my money was in Trading 212, which isn’t considered a proper bank. The day before applying, I moved funds to my Barclays account and included:

• A screenshot of the transfer

• A brief explanation

• A summary of my other accounts

I also added a sponsorship letter from my dad, with his bank statement and ID, just as a fallback.

⸻

After submission, they asked for:

• Photos of all passport pages

• A company overview (I just created a basic one with my intro, mission, and services)

Putting all the passport photos into one PDF was a bit of a pain, but I managed it using a command-line tool on my Mac to compress and merge them.

⸻

Accommodation:

I listed an Airbnb address for the application, not my actual long-term stay (which isn’t TM30-registered). I now have a short stay booked at a TM30-registered place for when my friend visits, and I’ll use that for my 90-day report.

⸻

Final Result: Approved

No interview, no major issues — just a few extra docs and a little prep. If your finances are a bit outside the box like mine, don’t panic — just explain things clearly and cover your bases.

Happy to answer questions or share general guidance if it helps someone else!

Hi,

I don't want to take up everyone's time so if somebody has gone through a similar process I would greatly appreciate messaging regarding some advice as what paperwork/support was needed.

I have a small business and would like to give myself permission to be a remote worker for a dtv application. I thought of using a visa service but I don't think there is much added value in that process. I have an upcoming trip to a nearby country and thought I would apply once I arrive.

For somebody that did something similar, what support did you need? Any tips on getting through the process?

Thanks!
