Whahaha 400 euro to proces a visa...for the employees. You do know these people make barely anything right?

How can you have a Thai wife and still be so oblivious.

Not even in Europe you will need 400 euro to pay employees to process a visa

Jouw domheid is komisch.

Most people will not stay for 5 years.

1. You cannot stay 360 days in a row

A. After staying 18p days extending the visa inside the country costs you money and is a bureaucratic nightmare

B. When staying longer then 180 days you might need to pay tax.

C. The DTV is mostly used by remote workers, no way most of the remote workers... nomads...... will be there 5 years.

2. I wasn't qualifying the amount. I was merely stating that you do pay taxes in Thailand in all sorts of ways. Visa being part of that.

3. Most of us do pay taxes over the amount that we earn. Contributing already to where ever we have the obligation to do this

What else do you think happens with the Visa money? The state officials just go out to dinner with it? Of course it is used for the common good. Jemig, dommerd!

Anonymous participant 808 Unfortunately it is way more difficult to get a 6 months lease. You also pay more monthly if you are lucky enough to find a six month lease. Not to mention that all that traveling around and finding short term apartments there also cost money. All in all you might be better of just paying the taxes. Unless you like to travel of course.

(I plan to stay 6 months since the tax laws are just too unclear and extending within the country is going to whole DTV process again)

Anonymous participant 118 That's what the visa money is for. Besides, you pay tax on everything you buy

Yes since the company is in another country and this salary and income has already been taxed there twice.

Anonieme deelnemer You can just use the Thai visa webpage. No need to go to PP

You misread what I said

You need a bankstatement with around dollar. I was not asked for previous months. Just my current bank status (savings account) was enough. It'll take about 2 to 3 weeks before you are approved. Since it's an e-visa directly from the Thai government I don't think it matters much where you are applying from. I did get mine in Cambodia as well.
