What are the tax implications for staying in Thailand for 6 months or more?

Tore *********

If the money was remitted in a year you are not tax resident, no remittance tax. And as of now you don’t have to submit tax return for that money

I think you may be overthinking this. I just showed a bank statement in my local currency. The embassy is capable of looking up the THB worth….

What are the costs and implications of applying for the DTV visa in Thailand, especially regarding ongoing proof of soft power activities?

Tore *********

@Christopher ********

there isn’t, but been mentioned in interviews etc. And as that is common practice with other visas, its highly likely to be the same with DTV, although not yet confirmed or denied.

We will know soon though, as we are very close to DTV being 6 months since launch

Because they set the rules. You don’t have to extend , you can “bypass” that by border bounce. But may still get control checks at entry

What options do foreigners in Thailand have to convert Bitcoin to Thai baht cash without a Thai ID or bank account?

Tore *********

As already mentioned, Bitkub (with KYC) and a Thai Bank account indeed.

There are more dubious cash ways possible, but I wouldn’t….

Don’t need NDID or Thai ID for Bitkub, but bank account would be needed

Will I have to pay taxes in Thailand if I'm on a DTV visa for an extended period?

Tore *********

@Elías *******

its 180 total days spent. Doesn’t matter if you leave and come back. If you spend more than 180 days in thailand within the same calendar year (jan-dec) you are considered tax resident regardless of type of visa.
