Maybe it’s worth paying an agent to get it done. I really don’t know.

After the 60 you can go to immigration and get another 30 for 1900 baht. Get there early it’s like DMV

David. How does the UK government know you live in Thailand..?

…DTV might work. But you have to apply outside of Thailand. Get on the Thai embassy website in Spain and read up on the requirements. I’am in the same boat as you and I would never buy anything right away. I rent a modern condo very nice for 9,000 baht ($258 USD) a month. In Bangkok because my Thai wife of 16 years (also a US citizen) has tons of friends here. I’ll tell you now that real estate for foreigners isn’t easy to sell. Don’t buy chit until you’re in country for year and know your preferred living area. Rent first. Don’t bring that 50,000 pounds into Thailand just yet. Don’t tell anyone about your money, especially the Government in Thailand. I recommend you have your savings in a UK bank, or a bank in Spain and set up a Wise or REMITLY account to transfer money as needed to your Thai bank account. As needed. I transfer from my bank in Los Angeles to our bank here in Thailand and it takes REMITLY About 20 seconds to do it. I’ve never used Wise but some on this forum use that. Me personally I would never do a direct deposit into Thailand from my (for example) social security. It’s best to have a firewall of protection in my opinion so my social security goes into my USA bank account and then I simply transfer any money I need for a month or two into our bank in Thailand. I am ignorant of these new tax laws in Thailand but in my opinion the less any government can trace money the better it is for us. They can’t tax your savings account that’s offshore. Good luck Sir.

Eddy. Maybe a DTV visa where you can just leave 500,000 baht or equivalent in your home country’s bank.

Every time you enter you’ll get 60 days visa exempt. This started July 15. Have a pleasant trip
