I don’t understand the first part of the question - there are plenty of websites that explain how the spouse visa works

Maybe you’re asking if it applies if your Thai wife doesn’t live in Thailand?

I don’t think she has to live in Thailand.

Never ask questions after they tell you to go ahead.

I’ve read that Malaysia has lower cost of living, especially rent. I haven’t noticed a big difference in prices when I’ve been there.

Thailand has better food.

It’s too complicated for an answer here

Roughly …

If the money you are transferring is considered income then you are legally required to file tax documents

How much you have to pay in tax depends on your home country taxes and tax treaty and maybe a few other things

Whether Thailand will enforce this new tax law, or change it after hints that many wealthy foreigners will leave, is all up in the air

Please note that I have been told many times in this group that I’m stupid so don’t rely on anything I say 🤣

Thailand is better on this than almost every other country

Pretty sure Baan Thai Immigration Solutions Co Ltd is more reasonable and they’re trustworthy too
