was a nice break but went solo and wasnt much to do apart from the few land marks i went to visit, 4 days was probably 2 to many. Only really found one area for drinking called bukit bintang, prices around same as pattaya really, nothing to pricey, food was much cheaper that thailand though.

I thought if you stayed over 180 days you then had to pay income taxes in Thailand .. I’m probably wrong .. but I’m interested.. I’ve just got my DTV visa.. so would be great if I can stay longer than 6 months in a year .. I pay taxes in the uk too 🙌

check with a Thai accountant but what I have been told: any amount withdrawn from an ATM over 4k per year, you owe Thai tax. If your home country has a treaty, then that amount paid to Thailand is deducted from USA etc. tax due.

DTA between UK and Thailand.

A Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) is a treaty between two countries that aims to prevent individuals or companies from being taxed on the same income in both countries.
