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?

Hi everyone,

For those who are working on the DTV, has anyone managed to receive a tax residency certificate? I’m Australian with non-Australian remote income.

Currently I live in Georgia 🇬🇪 and am paying a very favourable tax rate here and am wondering if it’s possible to do something similar in Thailand legally as I do in Georgia. Having a certificate is a key part in creating a paper trail that would assist me passing an audit.

Thanks for any help, I appreciate it!

Hi UK DTV holder here. Am currently registered as a sole trader with HMRC and am in contact with a Thai accountant to help me with my Thai taxes as I have been in the country for over 180 days. I pay myself into my UK bank account (as I don’t have a Thai account as per DTV) so wondering what my tax liability is with UK, I was planning to tell HMRC that I have left the country on my next tax return but want to make sure that’s the right thing to do. My next port of call is of course contacting a UK accountant but wanted to see if anyone here has any insight first. Thanks

I run a limited company and pay myself a salary of £1,000 per month, with an annual dividend top-up of around £20,000. My total income on my tax return comes to approximately £32,000 per year.

I recently moved 500,000 THB from the company account into my personal account. I usually invest my funds personally (e.g. in stocks), and I generally keep a personal balance of around £3,000–£4,000. This time, I deposited the 500,000 THB directly into my personal account.

Will my salary and dividend structure be sufficient for DTV Workcation Visa? What’s the lowest amount of income has someone been accepted with?

So I was told you are only a tax resident in Thailand if you stay more than 180 days and have a Thai Bank account

Hi, anyone knows if working online in Thailand triggers personal income tax? Anyone has any experience or knowledge about it?

Hey social media influencers on DTV:

Director-General Pinsai Suraswadi of the Thai Revenue Department has made it clear:

🔹 Social media influencers and online business owners must file income tax documents by the end of this month.

🔹 Failure to report income can result in severe penalties—including back taxes, interest, and fines that can increase your liability by up to 5x!

🔹 The Thai government is tracking digital footprints, making it easier than ever to detect unreported earnings.

🔹 The Revenue Department has the power to audit records going back 5 years—and the penalties include both civil and criminal consequences.

just left the local revenue office.

here's what they asked

1. Any income from Thailand? No

2. Any monthly pension? No

3. Is the money coming in from savings on income before 1 January 2024? Yes

I showed them a print out of my ATM withdrawals and my WISE transfers.

No need to file or pay tax in Thailand due to transferred funds and ATM withdrawals coming from existing savings.
