Hi

Ref : *“Subject to Thai tax should you stay longer than 180 days”*

Need some help/advice please

Currently living in the UK and looking at a DTV visa. I understand criteria and that this is technically a 5yr visa where you need to leave every 180 days and your income must not be derived from Thailand, I would also been deemed a Thai resident for tax purposes. I’m fine with all these points

What I don’t understand is, when I stay over 180 days I become subject to ‘Thai Tax’.

I fully understand UK tax (income tax) but can anyone please clarify what specific Thai tax’s I would become subject to??

My intention is to run a UK bank account & Uk Credit Card, i.e. Revoult & Starling & Amex for withdrawals, rental/condo/restaurant/bill payments etc. I will NOT remit/transfer any money to a Thai Bank. I guess I will have some bills in my name. I assume this arrangement is how most digital nomads operate

Would using apps such as TAGTHAi be deemed as remitting money to Thailand?

(Ironically i've heard the thai banks are closing all accounts down for non-residents without a long term visa, hence i couldn’t even get a thai bank account even if i tried).

i read i would need to file a tax return TIN every 6 months (which I understand I pay for) but would my actual tax liability be; ฿0 thb based on the info I’ve provided?

Thanks in advance for the advice
