I’ve been living in Thailand for a really long time and I’ve seen dozens of visa schemes come and go but this DTV takes the cake for most likely to be abused as well as most likely to be amended swiftly

@Patrick *********

yeah I understand why you’d want it but it’s unclear to me why an inexpensive 2week course would qualify someone for the DTV

Why would u need a DTV for 2 weeks?

Get a contract with GMM

@Ralph ******

I use T-Mobile and it’s included in my plan so np

@Erik ******

I bought mine in bkk and it’s physical sim only

@John *******

I have iPhone 14 so that’s all I can speak for

I just pay for my USA number and SIM card and exchange it for my Thai one when I have to do 2-factor…it’s inefficient but I don’t think there’s a workaround

I know that’s what it says now, I question whether that will eemain

@Bart *************

yeah I get that thats the implication, thanks to this thread I’ve now read the tax code and it’s clear as mud…as usual that lack of clarity now lends itself to conjecture and fear mongering…I’ve seen this happen over and over again here regarding a wide range of foreigner-specific issues and nearly always it works out positively for us as you’ve sugggested…having said that, I’ve also seen really challenging policy implemented very quickly that has had serious consequences for some…I just don’t want to be a member of the “some” group
