Hi all,

Looking for guidance and help.

I own a uk business and pay uk taxes, I live in the UK.

I am planning on getting the dtv visa, for my situation as a business owner, and moving to thailand permanently.

I am currently in thailand now and looking for suggestions on how best to obtain the visa without returning to the UK to apply, has anybody had success in a neighbouring country to thailand and how long did it take to be approved from application?

Also, since I would be spending more than 180 days in thailand in a calender year, would I owe taxes in thailand?

To add to this, I was working paye in the uk until July 2024 so no personal tax returns to display, business has corp tax and vat returns, and I have a paye slip until July this year, what would the embassy need on this point?

I did ask uk hmrc this before I left and also the embassy and they said as long as you are paying taxes in the uk still then nothing more to be done.

Is there an agent with experience in getting a pensioner LTR organized for a Dubai resident?

Gather this new service for Phuket will be via VFS Global as well.

The E-Extension Visa service is currently available at Immigration Bureau 1 in Bangkok, as well as Immigration Offices in Chonburi, Phuket, and Chiang Mai.

6th April I’ve been told Kamphaengphet Immigration closed for day,.

Know anyone that can help with Thai tourist visa?
