Comments welcome please: digging deeper into the 180-day tax qualifying deadline for all visas, my understanding is that the 180 days are the total accumulated days spent within Thailand, summed across any and all visits, during any individual calendar year (1st January to 31st December).

That is, it is not, as most people seem to think, a single block of time where the counter begins whenever you last entered Thailand.

For example, here are two visits that do not individually qualify, but when summed, the total period is in excess of 180 days.

21 March to 13 July = 115 days

25 July to 31 December = 160 days

Total : 115 + 160 = 275 days.

Since TAX and DTV keep coming up and we keep seeing headlines that thai authorities want to get stricter with enforcing the tax

.....Are there any countries currently which successfully enforce tax on money brought into their country (and how do they do it?)?

....Will the thai tax authorities go straight to Thai banks (if you have one) and request they share information on how much money is being brought in?

....With people without a thai bank it seem almost impossible for them to enforce tax on remittance income

....I'm probably gonna go back to working in thailand because I don't suddenly want to be lumped with a 200,000 k baht tax bill etc...

Hi, I have a DTV visa and I work for a French company from Thailand. I no longer pay taxes in France, but I'm wondering how things work for taxes in Thailand? Do I have to declare the amounts I import? Or my entire salary? Thank you.

Hi everyone, I am British and have lived in Thailand working remotely for many years already. I am back in the UK now and was getting ready to apply for the DTV visa from London but have recently read in here how they are requesting tax statements / returns. I don't pay tax so I would not be able o show that info - I don't make the threshold in the UK - I do have tax returns to prove this. My question is, would it be best for me to apply for the soft power instead of the workation to avoid any tax issues / would I need to actually be paying tax for this to be accepted?

Hi Guys

I got my DTV visa

Want to clarify on the taxes part.

Since my company doesn't have any entity in Thailand

Do i need to pay any taxes?

If i work for 180 days in Thailand in a year

Pls suggest 🙏

Hi,

A question about taxation -

We got the dtv visa a few months ago and been in Thailand ever since.

We also stayed in Thailand on a visa exemption a few months earlier this year.

So, by the end of the year we will exceed 180 days of stay in Thailand.

Will we have any tax duties?

Thank you

Hi All ,

Are there anybody who knows about this ?

According to the law, anyone who stays in Thailand for over 180 days out of a calendar year will be considered a tax resident by the Thai government. You will be liable to pay Thai taxes on your foreign income if you are a tax resident, even if you hold a Destination Thailand Visa.

Hi Everyone 🙂

Any German couple here, that is

* married

* one Thai work permit and income

* one German income

?

How did you do with taxes in Germany when getting married?
