Do freelancers have to pay tax if they stay with DTV visa ? I will leave before 180 days to visa extend. I am worried that I will be asked again if I return after 2 weeks after leaving the country. If you know the rates to pay, please let me know 🙏
If I come back with DTV for the second time, do I have to show the show money 500,000 baht again? How much should I show 🙏 I don't have a Thai bank account because it's difficult to open a Thai bank with DTV.
TLDR : Answer Summary
Freelancers in Thailand may need to pay taxes if they spend 180 days or more in the country within a calendar year, with tax rates ranging from 5-35% based on income. If their income is paid exclusively into a foreign bank account, it is generally not taxable in Thailand, although tax treaties may apply. While a proof of funds showing 500,000 THB is typically not required unless specifically requested, it's advisable to keep the documentation on hand when applying for visa extensions. Freelancers can start the tax payment process by obtaining a Tax ID at the revenue office.
