Agreed. And what equally stinks is the obsession of every country's government to tax people wherever they can. I'm a believer in the "user pays" system of taxation. Most things in Thailand attract a 7% government tax. If you use the roads you pay for the privilege, if you use trains or planes you pay additional taxes. There's high taxes on alcohol. Why should people be further taxed just for breathing the air in Thailand? We cannot escape income tax somewhere, and those of us who have paid tax in the country where the income is generated should be rightly aggrieved if another country wants to tax that same money further. The foreigners who stay the longest under the LTR visa are exempt from tax, so how does that figure?

@Sefton *******

Not everyone has a "legal obligation" to file a tax return. Tax returns are all about "assessable income". A lot of income is not assessable.

I can't see how it's "dangerous"! 😂😂. Look,if you're so keen and excited to be paying tax to Thailand, go for it!! I'll just sit back and laugh. Been here wayyyyyy too long to listen to the bs! 👍👍

Ah ok. I thought you already had something in mind.

Get Elite Visa for five or ten years

What sort of business?

You need to show twelve consecutive months of 65k Baht international transfers when you apply for the extension

@Elías *******

When are people going to wake up to the fact that the Thai Tax Office don't give a sh*t about the few baht difference in tax rates. They're going after the billionaires, not the expat pensioners! Jesus wept!

I don't know about the "same day" thing. Bangkok don't worry. I've had deposits on the 1st of the month, right through to 20th. The criteria is 65k each calendar month

Just bring cash whenever you come to Thailand. Untraceable
