Well, it’s been a bit of a journey, but today I got my Long Term Residency permit from the Kingdom of Thailand. I still need to do annual reporting (unless I leave the country), and I will have to go in when my passport expires in a couple of years, but basically other than housekeeping, I have 10 years of not having to deal with the immigration department. Have to say, that makes all the paperwork and effort worth it 😎

Hello,

I would like to know if, with a DTV visa, I am required to pay taxes in Thailand on my income. Do I need to report anything? After all, I already pay taxes on my income in my home country.

Also, I do not have a bank account in Thailand.

Hey, someone knows what happens if I live over 180 days in Thailand in one calender year?

Hi I am an American, and was thinking of applying for the DTV. My intention is to live in Thailand long term (the full 5 years offered by the DTV) so I am also wondering about taxes. If I live more than 6 months in a place, I assume I am to pay taxes. And if this is not law in Thailand, it might be soon.

So I'd like to know what I can expect with in regards to taxes (tax rates) as a Freelancer with clients in the US. I will obviously have to file in the US as well. Wondering what the double taxation treaty between Thailand and USA is like. Where is it good to go for tax advice? Any general tips, resources, advice?

Can anyone confirm if they earn money back home (and pay tax) and in Thailand after 180 days do you magically get told by someone to file a tax return? Or you just don't?

If Thailand implements the foreign income tax for expats who live in Thailand for longer than 1/2 the year, how many of you on DTV would stay longer than the 180days?

The proposal to impose income tax on worldwide income regardless of it being remitted to Thailand on all those who are resident for 180 days or more irrespective of visa status has now reached draft proposal status this means the Thai government may well vote on this matter soon and make an announcement in the Royal Gazette. If this was to become law, "last man out, put the cat out" Since there are still 4 months till year end this could be implemented by 1st jan 2025.

Important heads up for DTV holder who are resident in Thailand for 180 days. You mut complete PND94. The Half-Year Tax Filing Deadline is Fast Approaching... Do You Need to File a PND94?

This only applies to certain types of income:

Those with Thai rental income.

Those who have been in Thailand for 180 days or more and have remitted (transferred) overseas rental property income to Thailand.

Other situations that may require filing include:

Working as an individual contractor.

Income from a liberal profession.

Running a business, commerce, agriculture, or transport.

Concern's about new taxes imposed on imcoming proceeds from my country THAT I HAVE ALREADY PAID TAX ON &

worked hard all my life to earn.

Hi to all, Angela here , i am a brand new group member. I am a semi retired middle aged Australian trades-woman. I am not wealthy but what little means i have i worked very very hard for. Indeed no man ever gave me a razoo cent nor did i ever ask.

Having been to Thailand 3 times over the last 15 yrs i have often considered retiring there.

Now i am not so sure 🤔. I have recently learned that the Thai Gov have audaciously proclaimed they will tax the income &/ or in my case incoming disbursements of my own hard earned money into a Thai bank account.

I have already paid tax on my own money 🤷‍♀️in Australia. There is no way i am going to abide supporting such a Yak hyde of a policy. Ned Kelly wore a helmet when he rorted ya but they intend to so so with a straight face 😮.

I would really value some honest opinions on the new tax policy for retiree's before i consider Thailand as a retirement destination, 🤔🤔 Kind regards Angela
