ok. That makes sense, although if it is a sole proprietorship you may just send invoices from yourself privately.

Very confused as to why you don’t want to pay taxes in Thailand. I mean they only tax remitted money. Then you dont pay anything in the country that you are currently paying taxes.

i am not familiar with the remittance system. A remittance is simply me sending money from my foreign bank account to my thai bank account (or take it cash if i dont have a bank account, i assume). What is there to proof? I dont get the concept.

Edit: from what i read online is that it is possible to get a tax id based on your address registration with a long term rental contract. That would make sense. Can anyone confirm?

same question here. If you have assessable income. How should i ‘prove’ this? I cannot prove that i want to send money into Thailand (remittance) when i haven’t sent it yet.

thank you. what if i want to sent an invoice to a client? What is there to prove? I dont use contacts with my cliënts.

Alternatvely, what if i want to bring money into Thailand, which us taxable. How to prove i want to send money? It sound all a bit ridiculous to ‘proof’ all of these things. Won’t they just provide number when i ask them? Thats how it works just about anywhere in the world.
