Can I apply for a DTV visa if I'm self-employed as a web designer and manage rental properties?

@Michael *******

nobody is excempt from taxation

@Michael *******

most countries.. thailand you wont be excempt. But maybe tax treaty with your country

@Michael *******

what country is that

I thought you were applying for a Non-O based on marriage? You seem very confused on what you want to do (other than live in Thailand). So there are some things you need to consider, if you want to work remotely from Thailand then the DTV Workation option is really the only legal option open to you. You can't legally work remotely on a Non-O. To apply under Workation you will need to either show you remotely manage your property rentals (doesn't work if you use a property agent) or show you have sufficient income from your website design business. They frequently ask you to show you are registered for tax and you need to show invoices, income in your bank account erc. Plus the 500k baht of course.

@Michael *******

as I said you don't really have options if you work inside Thailand for clients outside Thailand. Your only legal option is the DTV

@Michael *******

note I did say *legal*. I'm aware people do it but they should keep it very quiet. All it takes is an unhappy local and you have problems

particularly on rental property in their home country
