How many days of 2025 will you have spent in Thailand by the end of the year?

Even though the visa grants a 180-day stay with each entry, is there a kind of unofficial upper limit on the number of days spent in the country that makes de facto resident status interpretable?

My visa was approved as a remote worker. I work for my long-standing EU employer in my rented flat in Thailand with two screens, a LAN connection and a fixed desk. Leaving the country regularly is not realistic.

By the end of the year, I will have spent about 315 days in this country. Next year, I plan to return to my home country for 1-3 months, in addition to a shorter stay in a neighbouring country.

DTVs, I am retired as such from employment, but have a portfolio of 10 rental properties, I run them myself, and as far as the UK is concerned it's investment income of course taxable, I can show accounts for many years if needed..income gross 60k net @ 45k, will that be covered under freelance, anybody any the wiser, cheers in advance

I am going to have a lump sum in the UK that I need to invest. Does anyone in the UK have advice? I understand a little about the double tax treaty but not enough. I will maintain a UK bank account plus a wise account and maybe keep premium bonds.

I want to apply for DTV in Vietnam. I am basically eligible for both, workation and Myai Thai camp (soft power). Now I am choosing an option to go with. I am more inclining towards Myai Thai (since I want to attend classes anyway). Are there any disadvantages with soft power path compared to workation? Based on available history, which of them (soft power or workation) is easier when re-entering (after 6 month)? Do they ask a re-confirmation that you are still attending the Myai Thai classes when you are re-entering after 6 month (has it ever happened to anyone)? Also any potential differences with handling taxes (for non-Thai income)? Which of them has more chances (in general) for paying no taxes in Thai?

I am 50+, American, have more than enough assets, collect a monthly pension, have visited Thailand MANY times, and trade stock options for substantial income.

Are these appropriate qualifications for a DTV?

With a retirement visa what are the tax implications for sending money to your thai bank account?

And is there a time factor involved that influences tax.

Also....is there a minimum amount of time i have to be in Thailand while I have a retirement visa?

Looking for more information on the DTV visa. From my understanding my US employer does not need to register or change taxes at all with me working in Thailand (up to 180 days in calendar year). My understanding under the DTV Is that the companyny does not need to comply to anything due to the stay being under 180 days. Am I missing something?

Right now the only hiccup for the company i work for to allow me to work in Thailand is they believe they will have tax implications.

If I can prove there is no tax liability on the company, they may agree to it. I’m highly favored there and I believe they will bend if it’s between allowing me to work in Thailand or me quitting.

Any advice? Legal documents/references I can show?

I'd like to build a house. For REASONS I am interested in sending the money from USA to my wife here. How did that work? With large transfers does it get declared or flagged or? Is it taxed? What sort of rates? We know very little about taxes in Thailand- nobody in my wife's network has anyone ever had enough money to need to pay taxes.

Is it legal to open a bank account while on DTV Visa.? If my remote employer pays in that bank account after withholding taxes (which I am ok with) would that be a problem?

Does Thailand’s new Tax Residency confusion for foreigners impact your interest to stay long term in Thailand?
