You're trying to live in Thailand on free entry stamps - that's not actually what they're designed for. They're designed to save short term tourists the hassle of getting visas. If you want to live in Thailand, why don't just get a proper visa? Leave the country, go to a neighbouring country and apply for DTV, then you'll have no more hassles

Just fly out. Airport immigration don't care about 90-day reports. You might, just might, get picked up when you do your first one after coming back, but it's highly unlikely. If you do, the fine is the same as if you'd go to immigration now, so nothing to lose. Not filing a 90-day report is a very minor misdemeanor

Marriage, bank accounts and property have nothing to do with permanent residency. More to do with working in Thailand, paying taxes and continuance over a period of time

If you want to subject yourself to the pedantic nuances of immigration, go for it! I'm in and out of the country every few months. I will be staying well clear of immigration offices! ✅✅✅😆😆😆

Get with the times! Soft power requires ZERO income! Welcome to the new retirement visa. I've already made the switch although I didn't use soft power, I used rental income. Best Thai visa EVER!

Ok the point you're obviously not aware of is the 90-day report doesn't actually have to be done on the 90th day, it can be done on the 86th day. Makes no difference, or on the 94th day. So what if you have to do two 90-day reports in a 180-day period? Is it THAT big a deal? Sometimes I feel people go digging for minor problems. I really don't think DTV holders will plan their overseas trips around 90-day reports

@Christopher *******

It's a five year visa. The visa is nothing to do with tax

No chance it will be removed. It was introduced to get people into the country on a longer term basis in order to spend money and pump the economy. It's been a total success. It'll be around for a long time yet

@Tony *******

I think you're new in Thailand. The 90-day reporting window is 15 days before to 7 days after. It's a good visa for retirees who still want to travel. In my case I need to travel to Australia twice a year to ensure I retain Australian Tax Residency, as I don't wish to have to file for taxes in Thailand. Plus I have one other "vacation" each year generally to a destination in Europe. Although "retired" I have no desire to spend every day for the rest of my life in Thailand, and I know many others who have also made the switch to DTV. The money saved and the bonus of never having to attend an immigration office is worth a lot to me. Some people pay agents 30,000 baht a year to avoid immigration. I'm not THAT silly! ✅

Sukhumvit is about 30km long in Bangkok. Which district are you in, and what district is your bank in?
