you cannot afford health insurance? how do you think you can survive in a foreign country then??? you know that healthcare will be expensive? just a minor thing and stay in hospital can quickly cost you 5-10k $£€ and more. what if there is an accident? what if there is a more serious illness?

definitely switch to the monthly transfer option as soon as you can. just financialy a bad decision to put 400 or 800k dead money into a thai account… non-oa would also work for the start since its 12 months and

enough time to get 12 months of international transfers into your account for the 65k monthly option

@Tracey *******
yes but you could and should use the income option after a year and not let 800k dead money sit in a thai account. just bad financial decision

okay understood… but it wouldn’t surprise me if thailand had a double standard for tax when they already have double pricing for many other things where they can extort the foreigner 🤣🙈

@Pete ******
thanks Pete. that sounds reasonable. 👍 yeah the article is kinda confusing. hope the law gets signed soon. Also the no tax on crypto is huge.

@Elías *******
i read the article multiple times and its very vague and does NOT explain what you are trying to say. it specifically talks about thai individuals. and the 180day part is very unspecific either. but you can link the law as you say it explains it. please post it. the article is a few days old already. and as off now its still a proposal or is there news from today?
Dany ********
Multiple parts of your linked article talk about „Thai individuals“ and not foreigners. So i would guess its only for thai people that bring in foreign income.

The part with the tax residency isnt very clear either if all of this applies to foreigners or not.

I guess its the new fearspreading narrative by visa agencies, old grumpy men, people that hate the dtv for whatever reason. usualy anonymous posters… dont worry too much. probably no one is banned from the people that posted this stuff here 🤣
