@Greg *******

i find prompt pay way faster and easier than fiddling with cash. Each to its own though

@Dylan ******

need? Possible without, but so much more convenient

Pay rent without waiting days for wise transfer, pay bills, take out cash without atm fee, pay for stuff using prompt pay, top up rabbit, top up toll road chip, pay for gasoline, supermarket, top up true money wallet, online shopping, food delivery, top of Muvmi, top up Taskee, pay at restaurants, Pay for any service. Buy car, lease car. The list goes on……

@Marco ******

as i said, i do it for 500b via my agent line chat 🤷🏻‍♂️. And it can be done online after first report

Why wouldn’t you follow the rules?

@Jon *********

yes indeed. I travel a bit so never get the chance to do 2 consecutive ones. The 6 months extension negates the need for reporting at 180 days.

Anonymous participant why would you pay that much? First time I did for free myself. Second time I paid an agent 500b to do it. Didn’t move from my sofa.

Why wouldn’t you?

Im pretty sure “girlfriend” doesn’t qualify for sponsor/dependant DTV. Legal spouse or children/stepchildren only.

She will need her own completely independent visa….

@Jo ******

Nothing you said dispute what I wrote 🤷🏻‍♂️

You can’t expect zero tax. Thats the whole point; “no double tax”, not “zero tax”

sure, obviously there are exceptions. Nobody is saying there isn’t. You have to pay tax somewhere, and the tax i assume is lower in Thailand than if they lived in AU. Isn’t that a good thing? I don’t see the problem.

That doesn’t change the fact in most cases you usually deduct tax paid in home countries as tax credit in Thailand.

@Elías *******

that’s great.

@Jo ******

not really, there’s a few exceptions but mostly at least westerners would have DTAs to use any previously paid tax at home ad tax credit resulting in zero net tax in Thailand
