Your Pinay lady? I've always wondered how one would get a Pinay and move to Thailand?🤔

Interesting I've been thinking about this as I plan to move there. It seems nobody has posted about getting questioned on taxes if staying over 180 days on DTV so far.

Just remember after 6 months in a calendar year you become a Thai tax resident. Something to keep in mind.

That's a good idea I'd take pictures too with my classmates as well

How's life in Thailand? I am looking to move there in a few years.

My question is what's the advantage of having a Thai bank besides the supposed pay with QR and transferring funds? Doesn't it open you up to tax implications depending on how much you transfer and hold in there? Why not just use a foreign bank that rebates your ATM fees and call it a day? I'm trying to understand the reasoning behind it.

Excellent topic, following because nobody has really shown how this works in detail.

Ok thanks that makes sense. However people always say that even if you have a foreign bank and withdraw from an ATM there, you have to pay taxes. It doesn't make sense, how would they even track it? Or why would that money be taxable.
