Hello all,

After 18 months in Thailand on exemptions and extensions I'm feeling great being back in on the DTV. I will need to transition from travel insurance to proper expat health insurance in September. How much is this going to cost me? My main priority is direct billing to Bangkok Hospital. I'd appreciate any pointers as I continue my research. Curious what products other DTV folks have selected.

90 days report discoveries that cost me 4,000 baht and many wasted hours:

1. Even if you have yearly rental contract and the owner filled up TM.30 when you moved with expire date all the way to the next 12 months IF you get out of the country it’s not valid anymore. Every time you enter Thailand you need to do TM.30 address report again. Ignore that the existing TM.30 “check out date: 30.12.2025” - they don’t accept it and treat as non existent.

The punishment: 1600 baht and need to bring them copies of full rental contract + id of owner + house book.

(collecting rent documents is much bigger punishment).

2. You can do the 90 days report 14 days before the date and 7 days after. Each late day is 500 baht, maximum 2000 baht.

If you will come on the 8th day they treat it as you late 8 days and not 1 days late. Even if you have Documentation of ER stay due to a car accident on these weeks - won’t help. Punishment: 2000 baht, very long queue to pay it and airport officers asking extra questions due to fine stamp on the passport.

In short: every time you fly into Thailand, you need to ask for TM30 even if you’re on yearly contact and even if you left Thailand only for 24 hours. Don’t wait for last moment to do the 90 days report, you never know maybe a pickup truck will crash into you in the exact day you planned to do the report.

Yikes 😬

Just updated my Bangkok bank app and logged in and my account number is missing. It shows that I’ve got no accounts. No other notifications.

Have you seen anything similar?

Looking for a recommendation for a local insurance company and travel insurance (baggage delay, loss, etc) that covers DTV holders. My current insurance starts and ends in my home country which I don’t actually reside in so not applicable - any help is appreciated!

for doing the 90 day report while staying in Bangkok is "Chaeng Watthana Immigration Office" the nearest?

Taxation of Tax Residents - look at the video 3:15.

Interesting 3 points made.

Some very good info in here I had not heard before. One thing that was new to me is banks report to revenue all accounts with over 2 million THB in or 400+ transactions a year.

Bottom line for DTV holders - unless you are remitting large amounts of money you earned in the same tax year you are tax resident then do not worry so much about tax.

EDIT: Around 30 mins they clear up ATM and CC use - yes it counts as remmitance
