Hey guys! Great initiative to open this group!!!

I have a few questions as a Dutch man. 

With DTV visa, can one stay more than 180 days a year with a border crossing? Or only with an extension?

What would i need to show if I work for myself and pay myself?

I heard about reporting every 90 days, what does this mean? I need to report where and with which documents?

TLDR : Answer Summary

A Dutch man with a DTV visa can stay in Thailand for more than 180 days a year by either extending the visa at an immigration office or by exiting and re-entering the country for a new 180-day stamp. Additionally, he must report his address every 90 days at a local immigration office, which can be done online, to inform the authorities of his residence.

90 days reporting done at your local immigration office. Can be done online, basically letting them know where you are staying.

Not your DTV docs..it is about where you live and staying within your visa limit of stay.

I can answer your first question. You get a 180 day stamp upon entry, then you can either choose to extend for another 180 days at an immigration office in Thailand, or exit the country and re-enter for another 180 day stamp.

What are the tax obligations for DTV visa holders in Thailand and how does it work with regard to the 180-day rule?
