Hi All.

Unfortunately, my tax bill for 2024 was huge. I have applied for and was approved for my LTRV in the hope that I won't have to pay taxes next year. If I'm here on a non 'O' and get my LTRV within 180 days will I still be eligible for taxes for 2025. LTRV also asked me to cancel my non 'O' in order to have LTRV stamped in my passport but immigration in Surin refused saying you can only change your visa on expiry of old one. Which isn't until 25th June. At a bit of a loss. Can bkk immigration cancel my non 'O' before they stamp my LTRV. and please no wise cracks about avoiding taxes or my income please.

Hello 🙂 I would like to know if it is possible to have a Tax Identification Number (TIN) and pay tax when you have a visa DTV soft power.

Thank you in advance

Hello!

After the DTV is approved, I want to transfer my income from my home country to a local bank in Thailand to use for my living expenses.

However, in this case, if I live in Thailand for more than 180 days, will I have to pay extra taxes to Thailand on the transferred amount?

I am from a country that has a DTA(double taxation agreement) with Thailand.

Do freelancers have to pay tax if they stay with DTV visa ? I will leave before 180 days to visa extend. I am worried that I will be asked again if I return after 2 weeks after leaving the country. If you know the rates to pay, please let me know 🙏

If I come back with DTV for the second time, do I have to show the show money 500,000 baht again? How much should I show 🙏 I don't have a Thai bank account because it's difficult to open a Thai bank with DTV.

I have found some information regarding taxation for foreigners in Thailand, sourced from a PDF file from the Thai Revenue Department, which I would like to share for reference.

Situation:

Visa: DTV1 Workcation (remote worker)

Home country Germany with double taxation agreement

Centre of life Thailand (significantly more than 180 days per year)

According to the double taxation agreement, Thailand is entitled to income tax. However, in practice, the employer in my home country pays income tax as if I were staying in my home country, right? If I file my tax return in Thailand, I only pay the tax difference, right?

What about social security contributions? In my opinion, there is no longer an obligation to pay social security contributions (statement valid for Germany), so no such contributions are paid. At the same time, of course, I take out health insurance and pension policies myself on a private basis.

Everything correct or any objections?

Hi everyone,

regarding the DTV visa, I understand that you have to sign up for programs like Muai Thay, cooking classes or others to get it. This means that I have to complete a relevant program in the first 180 days. What happens if I leave the country after 180 days and re-enter 2 weeks later and get another 180 day stay? Do I have to participate in a program again each time I re-enter the country?

Another question: Do I have to file a tax return and pay taxes if I stay in the country for more than 180 days a year due to re-entry with the DTV?

Thanks for any answers
