Is it wise to apply for a DTV visa even if I won't be in Thailand for the next couple of years?

Rich ********

I’m in the same boat as you .. but saw on another forum that you have 3 months from getting the DTV to entering the country on it .. so maybe cannot apply say 6 months ahead ..

Better check that if it is true … I’m here now for 2 months on the visa free 60 days.. same in June / July when I’m back .. the I needed DTV for 4 months plus over winter next year .. so looks like I will apply when back in the UK around September time 🤷‍♂️

Is it acceptable to apply for a visa if my business was created just three weeks ago without income tax proof?

Rich ********

Suspect you will need proof of turnover / taxes/ profits etc

Or everyone would just start a business up for this reason 🤷‍♂️

Rich ********

Cheers everyone .. think I would probably stick to the 180 days in the year then… to avoid any issues for the next 2 or 3 years… then look at it again .. will probably have changed by then anyway ..

Thanks for the constructive advice.. much appreciated 🙌

@Steve *******

Do remote employees in Thailand need to have their employers pay social security contributions?

Rich ********

Surely that’s why it is a 180 day visa… any more days spent in Thailand and that’s when tax implications kick in … avoid that if possible 😂

What are my options for staying in Thailand after the DTV expires without marriage or large investment?

Rich ********

In Thailand now for 2 or 3 months… back home in March… I can defo work remotely so applying for the DTV when I get back .. 5 years is long enough for me .. who knows where things will be then .. not sure I want to fully retire here.. but the way things are going downhill in the UK .. it’s a possibility 😂🤷‍♂️
