Does anyone know about this visa (LTR) especially on the tax exemptions for a remote worker earning over the threshold ?

Hi All,

Has anyone done there Thai tax return? I have been on my DTV visa since 2024 and this is the first time I have to do a Thai tax return.

Does anyone have any advice or information on the process.

If I sell my house in Ireland and deposit in my Thailand Bangkok bank will I be taxed on this money?

Good day everyone!

I recently learned that if you stay in Thailand for more than 180 days, you’re considered a tax resident and have to pay taxes there.

But I’m still a bit confused — does that mean taxes need to be paid in both countries (my home country and Thailand)? Or can I transfer all my tax obligations fully to Thailand?

Also, how is this actually tracked if I can’t open a Thai bank account yet? Like… how do they even verify that money was received in Thailand in the first place?

Would really appreciate any insights or experiences on this topic 🙏

Since TAX and DTV keep coming up and we keep seeing headlines that thai authorities want to get stricter with enforcing the tax

.....Are there any countries currently which successfully enforce tax on money brought into their country (and how do they do it?)?

....Will the thai tax authorities go straight to Thai banks (if you have one) and request they share information on how much money is being brought in?

....With people without a thai bank it seem almost impossible for them to enforce tax on remittance income

....I'm probably gonna go back to working in thailand because I don't suddenly want to be lumped with a 200,000 k baht tax bill etc...

Is anyone here on DTV in Thailand, does not have a Thai bank account but has a Thai Tax ID?

A tax attorney, i just contacted to pay tax in Thailand, told me i need a Thai bank account to get a thai tax id and pay taxes. But I just used revolut to pay and get cash. From all i red i am pretty sure if i am in Thailand for more than 180 days i can get a thai tax id and pay taxes here.

Any advice?

Thanks for replying!🙏🏻

The article says Thais but many assume it means all Tax Residents.

Hey everyone, quick question:

How does the Thai work visa affect taxes? I’m an EU passport holder with income from foreign stocks (not working in Thailand). If I live there long-term, how is that taxed? Any tips or experiences would help! 🙏

I'm confused. Just read this new article just posted today on taxes. So it says we're not taxed on income sourced outside of Thailand. But later it talks about Residency rule and that we ARE taxed. So I'm confused, are we taxed or not taxed? It appears rules on foreigners earning outside Thailand those rules haven't changed. Can anyone clarify?

Over 200 responses to a post yesterday regarding paying tax in Thailand. Much discussed in 2024, but not so much this year. Seems to be two groups. Those that registered, and those that haven't. My question is this - has anyone heard of anyone being prosecuted for failing to register?
