Can an expat declare their income and pay taxes in Thailand with a DTV visa?

@Felipe ********

That just depends on the situation, some people prefer to pay lower Thai taxes and not high taxes in their home country, and depending on DTA and type of income there are possibilities

You may be right that Thailand does not track the money, but you are responsible to tell them, and tax fraud might be punished, all up to you if you want to take that risk.

money brought in by creditcard is also bringing in money. It does not need to be cash. And living in Thailand, not working in Thailand, and not bringing in money from outside looks quite suspicious, don't you think?

Luit *****************

Visa and tax are unrelated to each other, when you are 180 days or more in total in a calendar year in Thailand, you will be considered tax resident, and might have to pay taxes depending on your situation, but not on your visa.

Is income earned through remote work while in Thailand considered Thai-sourced or foreign-sourced income?

@Michael ******

so you think when you get money in your home country as a gift, and then bring that to Thailand, they will accept you don't pay tax on it?

Why was my Thai visa application rejected twice despite providing all requested documents?

@Travis *******

That just is how visa processes work, it just is not an exact science.

Why should Thai authorities like your tax returns as long as you not pay tax to them or buy elite visa?

And just like you, I only stay part of the time here, DTV is not meant to live in Thailand permanently

ATM from foreign account is bringing in money, taking cash with you is bringing in money. How well everything can be checked is another story, but be aware that you are supposed to live from something, so you should tell you bring in some money when you are tax resident and have no Thai job.

@Michael ******

no, you pay tax on any money you bring in, unless you gained it before 2024. The way you gained the money does not matter.
