I have been using a usa Skype number for my 2 step verifications for 52 usd per year for the past 4.5 years. At the time when I signed up, Skype was not recommended by others for 2 step but so far I have been lucky.

@Tim *****
yes.2026 I might go back to 179 days a year in Thailand. In 2025 I will live off the money that I already have in Thailand and won’t bring in new money in 2025

@Tim *****
hence my answer that I will be in Thailand less than 180 days in 2024

@Tim *****
???? I brought in money prior to 2024 and in 2024 I did not stay in Thailand long enough to be a tax resident. I am not clear which part you think is not possible. Perhaps you were meaning to reply to someone else’s comment…

@Nigel *******

@Nigel *******
in 2023 and 2024 I brought in some extra money which will help me in 2025. In 2024 I will only stay in Thailand 179 days to avoid dealing with Thai tax forms.

In 2025 I will be in Thailand a lot so I will use my money that is already in thailand.

Playing by ear for 2026 onwards.

@Eric *****
I would suggest bringing in the 800k thb in a calendar year where you are only in Thailand for 179 days or less. Then you won’t have to file tax forms etc.
