is correct. Any capital gain in another country is not taxable in Thailand until the proceeds from that sale are transferred into Thailand, and even then any tax already paid is a deduction against Thai tax, which for many countries might mean no tax is payable in Thailand

You'll find with a capital gain, any CGT will be payable in the country where the gain was realised.

What do you define as a country where you "primarily pay your taxes". This term isn't used in any DTA

Generally you apply to the embassy of the first country you will enter in the Schengen area

The most "mis-used" visa in Thailand is the non-O retirement visa. Over half of these are obtained through visa agents paying bribes to immigration because people can't meet the requirements. The DTV is most certainly an "upgrade" for retirees who don't want to spend the rest of their lives sitting in Thailand waiting to die! Many (like me) still want to travel, and the DTV is fantastic for this. It's a dream come true

Who gives a sh*t about the "real" target group. If you meet the criteria you meet the criteria. I don't see it as a"downgrade". Anything that avoids dealing with those pedantic immigration officers year after year is a bonus. There's thousands of retirees suddenly becoming "remote workers". It's so easy it's laughable

DTV can be massaged into any situation. I switched from non-O retirement visa onto DTV under "remote worker" 👍👍
