TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion focuses on the challenges DTV visa holders face in paying tax due to their inability to open bank accounts in Thailand. Several suggestions emerged, including applying for a Tax Identification Number (TIN), filing taxes both online and in person, and utilizing alternative payment methods such as cash or services like TrueMoney for tax payments. Participants also humorously reflected on the general reluctance of many expats to engage with the tax system in Thailand.
Firstly, ask a Thai Tax Firm. It’s obvious FB is not your best choice for advice on this topic. As over 99% of this group isn’t paying taxes (unless they work for a Thai company), I highly doubt anyone has actually paid tax here while not working.
1. Check if you're liable for taxes. Various scenarios (remitted money, country treaties, etc.) Most of people here are new and arrived with DTVs, tax return filling will be for later.
2. Apply for a Tax Identification Number (TIN) at the local Revenue Department.
3. File your tax return online or in person using the correct forms (PNDs).
4. Pay any taxes owed via bank transfer, online payment, or at the Revenue Department office. No Thai bank account is strictly required to pay taxes. You can use Truemoney for example, cash at counter as so ones.
Anonymous participant Dude just chill.. if anything is of real importance they always find a way of letting farang know.. until then relax and enjoy your life, and read less news - it's BS most of the time
Anonymous Member My advice to you if you really want to pay something try going to the tax department and they will tell you everything how to do it, although I think they will send you away
