I am new to the group and I am amazed at what a shambles the whole situation is !! Rules seem to change on a whim, so many complicated rules and options. I have to question the Thai government and their policies, if they don’t want foreign immigration say so, make the rules clear and transparent. Like many other countries it’s all based on money ! It’s big business! Does Thailand not want skilled experienced people to bring their expertise and knowledge to benefit the country or is it just another money making scam !! Very very sad

What are your opinions on tax for DTV visa holders? Will you guys by willing to pay the tax? I feel like this is absurd because you don't earn your money from Thailand. The tax based on my research is also not tiny. It's almost around 200,000 THB per year for someone who makes 20k - 40kUSD (Correct me if I am wrong though). This amount exceeds far more than what I am comfortable paying for the rent for the entire year.

If that is indeed the case, I will not be applying for DTV. That is outrageous. A lot of money for what? You are not even earning from Thailand, this is literally just for breathing. I don't know why I feel this way and how other people can accept this. If it's true and most people are ok with this, what am I missing out on?

Apparently things are getting bad when they turn the country's main airport into a field hospital.

31st December was the day the government were to make an announcement on reducing quarentine from 14 nights back to a proposed 10 nights ..just more BS I assume as not seen any notification either way..
