@George ******

Do you believe yourself your wordgames will work wit the Thai? Of course pension is taxable income as long as not excluded in DTA.

@Al**

a lot of real nomads and remote workers stay less than 180 days on DTV, that is why DTV has a stay of 180 days.

When you use it in a different way, you might become tax resident, but that is not relaxed to DTV

@Travelling *******

then just pay 1 year lease when it is cheaper...

Avoiding taxes has a price tag.

@Abas *****

what to think about the roads and other infrastructure you drive on? You are allowed to use them.

@Travelling *******

The visa money is for infrastructure??? What did you smoke?

And indeed you pay tax when you buy things, just like all Thai do, but nex to that they have to pay tax too, so why should you not pay tax.

@David *******

360 days in a year is possible and completely legal, but then it is not used the way it is meant, so

@Jon *******

is right you are not a nomad anymore at that moment.

@David *******

Everybody has to decide for himself what is the risk of fraud. Withdrawing money in an ATM in Thailand is considered bringing money in Thailand when it is originating from a foreign account. Maybe this is not easy checked, and as long as you not do it too much you get away with it.

But think about the fact you need money to live, so when you are tax resident and not bringing in money, nor have a Thai job, where does your money come from?

That might attract attention.

@Dennis ***********

paying tax and visa have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

A bunch of hoop to get a visa???

I think the process is quite simple.

@Lor ******

What is silly about not accepting stock accounts?

@Paul *******

rate normally not the same, Wise now 35.0039 THB for EUR 1, Revolut 34.81 THB for EUR 1, so the amount and fees decide which is cheapest. Transfer with Revolut gave me one time a charge at receiver side, this never happened me with wise.
