1900 baht is the rate you pay at Immigration.

You do not need an agent to do this for you.

Anonymous participant oh, lol, no. It's 10k for sending the initial application.

Extensions done in Thailand are 1900 like the others. But it's currently recommended to just travel out and back in for a new stamp, due to the document-checks if extension is done in country.

Anonymous participant just get a multi entry tourist visa instead?

Got stopped on my 3rd entry in 2023.

The amount of change is vastly exaggerated by media and influencers.

Anonymous participant 689 i think you are confusing TM30 and 90 day report. They are not the same

@Lloyd ********

Yes, but he was not talking combination, he was talking both as in both of the lump sum and the monthly transfers needed to happen.

It's either $30,000 as a lump sum OR $2,500 a month. Not both.

I'd go with the monthly income, get a bank account when you hit the ground in Thailand, and start transfer at least the minimum monthly required for the extension.

You'll have plenty of time to get that sorted with the Non-OA visa, but it doesn't hurt to start early.

@Travelling *******

You can stay a year if you extend your stay.

You can also just go outside the country for a day or so, and then return to get stamped in for another 6 months.

You are a tax resident if you stay more than 180 days during a calendar year.

A lot of countries have a tax agreement with Thailand that prevents dual taxation. I chose to pay tax in Thailand because it is beneficial for me.

You will likely need to visit in person and verify yourself and your phone number registered to your account.
