Well tickle my arse with a feather (old English saying), so what's the panic about the Thai taxman hitting Farang remitances?

Hello everyone.

* I have recently gotten a DTV in Jakarta and am back in Thailand.

* I am a Japanese national & a framework to prevent double taxation is in place between Japan and Thailand.

* As I am planning to live and work here more than 180days per calendar year (most probably around 300 days per calendar year) , I believe I will be subject to personal income taxes in Thailand.

* I have previously worked under a working visa in Thailand, therfore, I have a tax ID in Thailand and Thai bank account.

Q: Has anyone here been in a similar situation—staying in Thailand for more than 180 days while working remotely for a company under a DTV visa—and had experience paying taxes in Thailand?

I'd appreciate any insights or experiences you could share!

Do all expats who stay over 180 days a year file Thailand tax return as they are considered residents and Thailand supposedly taxes worldwide income.

I saw an ad directed toward ex-pats that tracks how long you’re in a certain country and for a certain time for tax purposes, but for the life of me, I can’t remember what it’s called and I can’t find it. It’s something I want to download. Does anyone know what it would be or have a similar app or even know what I’m talking about?

DTV, retirement or Marriage visa? We're planning to spend our time between Thailand and Europe. Advantages / disadvantages?

If I bring my 400,000 bt. Into Thailand to put into my Thai bank account for my marriage visa will that be considered income for tax reasons?

Hi, ChatGPT says that income from remote work from Thailand for foreign clients has to be fully taxed in Thailand (no matter if remitted or not). Is it true?

Is it correct that if you have 2 million baths or more on your account in Thai bank then you have to pay taxes ?

How much is it about?

I have been told by my employer that I am OK to work remotely in Thailand on a pert time basis 25 hours per week.

This suits me fine as I was going to retire/semi-retire.

Is anyone else doing this from the UK as I would like to know about the double tax arrangements and whether this forms any part of the DTV application.

Hi everyone, this message might be relevant to some of you and I could use some advice: I’m trying to open an Interactive Brokers (IBKR) account, but they’re asking for a TIN (Thai Identification Number). The thing is, I’ve just changed my tax residency and I don’t my TIN at the moment.

Has anyone managed to get around a similar situation?

Is the TIN absolutely necessary?

Thanks in advance for your help! 😁
