Has someone acquired a Thai TIN from Revenue office whilst on DTV visa also what documents are required by the Revenue office.

PS: I know about DTA but since I will become a tax resident of Thailand for this financial year I have to pay taxes on my Thai remittance rather than my home country where I am not a tax resident.
Answer summary
To acquire a Thai Tax Identification Number (TIN) while on a DTV visa, you typically need to present various documents at the local revenue office. Key documents include your passport with the DTV visa page, entry stamps, a TM30 slip, a rental contract, and proof of remittances to Thailand (such as bank statements or Wise slips). Some offices may also require a work contract or proof of freelance work, along with a completed Thai tax form. It's advisable to keep copies of all documents and visit the office early in the day for a smoother process.

Yes many DTV holders get Thai TIN at local revenue office when they become tax resident. Staff will issue after checking your stay over one hundred eighty days and your income remitted to Thailand. Office is usually quick if you bring full set.

Bring passport with DTV page, entry stamps, TM30 slip, rental contract, and Thai bank proof or Wise slips showing remittance if you have. Some offices ask for work contract or freelance proof and a simple Thai tax form filled at office. Keep copies of all and go early morning.

You could consider reading a book or two before your trip. I’d recommend Unlock Thailand by Isla Rey on Amazon, it includes all the info and insights you need. You should check it out. A very good companion 👌.

Please be careful and seek professional advice.

It seems that you might be trying to avoid tax on income sourced in your home country or elsewhere. Whether you're a tax resident or not, income is still (alomst always) required to be taxed at the source.

Becoming a Thai tax resident doesn't excuse tax payable at the source, nor does it affect your tax residency status in your home country.

Proceed with caution.

Yes but via accounting company. Only passport needed.

The locale revenue department did not want / was asking for too much document.

You file the Thai tax return for this year in the first 3 months of next year which would be an appropriate time to request a TIN
