On an entry stamp is never information about how and where you applied, what is your point? There are a lot of different visaclasses and types, but on the entry stamp only the class is mentioned normally, so you can have same stamps for different types in a visa class, which means on an entry stamp you cannot see which visa type you have.

@Sean ******

Of course it is the same stamp, the stamp is just an entry stamp and is used for all visa and even visa exempt entries in the country, so it is not even a visa stamp...

With handwriting or sometimes another stamp they mention the type of visa.

My point is that it is of no interest at which date in a calender year you stay 180 days, for the whole calendar year you are considered as tax resident.

@Pete ******

Not exactly, when the moment you are 180 days in Thailand in a calendar year is in let's say December, you are tax resident for the whole calendar year starting at January 1 and ending at December 31. So money you bring in January can become taxable when in December you reach 180 days.

@Pete ******

I know about what the question is, but your reply suggests that you become tax resident at the moment you are RESIDENT for 180 days or more.

That just is factual not true.

I quote: become Thai tax resident” means being resident in the Kingdom for 180 days in a calendar year

Also you do not become tax resident at a certain moment, you are tax resident in a certain calendar year, you can be tax resident in one year and not in the next year.

For dependant DTV visa the requirements list 500K, so that should preferable be in an account owned by applicant, in this case your husband. When there would be no financial requirements for dependants, the system would not ask for proof...

When he does not have it in an own account some embassies accept 1M at your account together with a sponsor letter.

@Pete ******

Thai tax resident and resident in Thailand is not the same

When you stay for 180 days or more as a tourist you will become tax resident, but you will not become officially a resident of the Kingdom in that case.

@Todd ********

No they did not make the system that way, it is used that way and that is something completely different, it still is abuse, but the abuse is tolerated, sometimes for money.

If you think SE lifestyle without wearing helmets is better than Europe, it is no use to discuss with you, there is a reason why Thailand is in top 5 with number of traffic deaths.
