This is both a visa question as well as an income tax question. For those living in Thailand more than 180 days per year (in my case a U.S. citizen), retired (non O or non-OA retirement visa) and living on Social Security income, can you confirm 2 things for me. 1). Does Thailand tax you on U.S. Social Security payments if they are remitted to a Thailand bank? 2). Does this depend on the type of visa that one has (resident vs tourist visa)?

Shocking news for declaration from 2025 and forward. For all who declare foreign income and wish to deduct their foreign tax from the Thai tax according to DTA. Now legalized documents are mandatory as per Revenue service DTA subdivision from 14.01.2026 sent out to all local tax offices!!!

If I obtain a DTV and do a border run after staying 180 days. Do I then have to start paying income tax to Thailand?

I work online and my clients are Europeans.

Thanks 🙏

“I buy cars in the USA and sell them online to customers in Latin America through my website. I started this business in 2016 and have been working online since then.

I reinvest my profits back into buying more vehicles and growing the business. I currently have around 500,000 THB available for investment.

Before COVID, I regularly did border runs in Thailand to stay legally.

I would like to know if this type of online business can qualify for a digital nomad visa. I am looking for guidance and help.

Thank you very much, and I apologize for any inconvenience”

Income tax requested for DTV application - not having one since being a nomad:

Got requested - Financial evidence: an amount of no less than 500,000 THB, (e.g., bank statements for the last three months, sponsor letter) (already provided)

+ Provide the salary slips/income for the past 6 months, please highlight them in your transaction records, and provide your income tax last 2 years.

I have 2 questions:

1. Since, I've been moving around multiple countries (less than 6months each country) - It wasn't required by any of these countries to pay income taxes - what should I attach as income tax for the last 2 years?

2. I attached the bank statements for 3 months with over 500.000vnd.

Now that I will have to attach the payslips for the past 6 months, should I just highlight them in that 3 months bank statement - or should I attach another 6 months transaction record which I haven't got?

After living in Thailand for two years, i am expecting to transfer 1m THB per year of my personal pension into Thailand.

The UK will tax this amount (including national insurance) by approximately 10% ie 100,000 THB.

What tax would I need to pay on this money when transferred into Thailand?

I'm trying to fill PND 94 form, as an individual contractor/freelancer on DTV. But they are asking for assessable income (which probably is 0thb for all dtv visa holders, according to this group - our income is not Thai sourced). Where should I type remitted money into Thailand? Where should I type the tax already paid in my home country?
