What happens if you stay in Thailand for more than 6 months regarding taxes?

Deepak *******

Anonymous participant That is even more suspicious, indicating you're working illegally in Thailand. Can have grave consequences in the future if audited; if not you're scot-free. Stealing is not a problem as long as you're not caught.

I'm also contemplating next July. I may take the dental implant route or remote work route. Have not decided yet.

Which neighboring countries are the best options for applying for a DTV visa from Thailand?

Deepak *******

Recently read LAOS is easy, three days. Maybe I should make a trip to Laos and meet with my ex sugar baby in Laos. 😂 And also get the DTV.

Can I use a UK Stocks and Shares ISA to meet the 500k financial requirement for a Thai visa?

Anonymous participant Do you get an ATM card that you can use to withdraw money from ATM machines? If so, it will qualify. For example, Charles Schwab and Fidelity Checking accounts qualify, but their investment accounts don't qualify even if the money is in cash (SPAXX) because there is no ATM card for their SPAXX account.

The forum is not only to celebrate your achievement in getting the DTV but also to share your experience with others for their benefits. While posting, one should post the following at least: 1. passport nationality; 2. embassy where applied. 3. Documents supplied 4. Time taken 5. DTV category.

Self employed in the US has to pay income taxes + double the amount of FICA (SS + Medicare) taxes on their incomes. Many try not to report income generated from something they consider to be a hobby.

@Somari ********

Please don't tell IRS it is a hobby. There is no category for hobbies in the vocabulary of the IRS. You must pay your taxes no matter what.

What should you do after entering Thailand with a DTV visa?

Deepak *******

@Jack *******

Any time you stay more than 90 days in Thailand, you must do a 90-day report unless published in the regulations not required for a visa category. Nothing is published about 90-day reporting for DTV visas; that means you must report. I believe for LTR visas you don't need to do as of now.
