Participants agree that the channel is a valuable resource for specific advice on these issues and express frustration over irrelevant comments.

Update on TDAC. For ex-pats, I think you can now put TH as country of origin; + no need for return flight information. Their help-line link does not work!

Indeed thailand makes it so so difficult to the point that that I honestly don't think they want expats. Just fyi for you and anybody that reads this response. Thailand has a population of 75 million people of which only 4 million pay taxes. So let me ask the group again. Why are we singled out. There are according to Thai numbers and other international organizations between 200,000 and 500,000 expats living here. The numbers vary and are so inconsistent. Even thai numbers don't include Canadians, aussies and half of of all European countries. So we actually represent based on the lowest estimates

th of tax payers. Why are we staying here being penalized, being made to pay thai taxes when we can't own land, can't get a mortgage, can't get a lease, can't borrow from thai banks - even with full residency, nothing nothing nothing. Read the pattaya news, the thaiger, the nation, expats are leaving like rats from a sinking ship. And if anyone would like to talk about the Chinese or Russians here - all Putin draft dodgers a la Trump I'm all ears. But no trolls please or I will report you to Facebook for harassment. I've done it before and everyone I have done it too has had their Facebook page revoked. So trolls be warned!!!!

perhaps. But you’ll get correct answers here. You might get incorrect ones too but you have to work out how to filter out who gives correct ones and who doesn’t.
