@Marty ********

I havent paid federal income taxes since 2020 while drawing 65k USD a year. My retirement is based off compensation from the VA its not pension. In the DTA guidelines thailand will not tax me either.

@Max ************

you are giving bad advice if the income isnt covered under the DTA in thailand you are subject to their tax structure

Thailand Income Tax for Foreigners in Thailand | Siam Legal International

If you are in thaialnd for a accumlitive of 180 days ( doesnt have to be consecutive ) you are subject to their tax no matter if you derive income locally in thailand or from foreign sources. Again thats if its not covered under the DTA

@Max ************

yes there is you may want to check that i know a few retired visa holders thst limit what they bring in to avoid paying taxes. My income is tax free due to a treaty between US Government and thai Kingdom DTA treaty.

If an Americans income is the result of federal benifits Thailand doesn't tax it

@Lance *******

not on a DTV thats visa exempt

There is no border bounce with a visa you leaving and coming back is just you using your visa.

You just have to have that income access in your bank proof of deposit bank statements or award letters showing the amount.

My understanding is thailand is changing their tax requirements so I would check on that.

I havent myself cause the tax here isnt an issue for me to worry about

Its not a border bounce for visa holders with multiple entry. That is a term used for people on visa exempts abusing the privledge, I would make sure you have proof of the 400k baht in savings they are asking to see that at immigration with the DTV and other paper work its random but id be ready to show your documents

It has to be in a checking / savings account where you have direct access to it. Not investment account of any kind

Your first 90 day report is supposed to be in person, then after that you can do it on their app

@Ezell *****

has to be in a deposit account that you can access instantly with out issues
