Just a typo. I did state the LTR was 2.5x more expensive than the DTV. Even a jerk like you can do simple arithmetic. And you're getting the DTV? And yet you're saying it's not the best visa out? Interesting! 😂😂😂

You apply for visas from overseas through embassies or consulates, not immigration

Working abs? 👍😂

You can't work in Thailand on LTR visa, you need non-B, or non-O (married to a Thai) so not quite sure what you're talking about. LTR is 50,000 baht for five years, the DTV is 10,000 for five years, so 20,000 for ten years.

Of course if you are working in Thailand you need the non-B, I was speaking generally. Just about anyone on retirement or marriage visas would be better off on a DTV. Those also on ED visas, the DTV beats it. LTR has some minor advantages, but considering it's 2.5x the price and requires health insurance, those advantages quickly fade. Elite Visa is better but take a look at the price. Can you actually name any other visa which is better than DTV and give your reasons? By the way, the meme is not mine, someone else posted it after he switched from retirement visa to DTV.

DTV of course. The best visa ever for Thailand

That's VAT. This topic is about "remitting" money to Thailand.

Credit card transactions are considered "remittances"

I've lived for extended periods in both Germany and UK (several years in each) but never had a file a tax return. I've lived in Thailand for several years already, never needed to file a tax return. If the tax system is getting a shake up here, there will be several years before payments are enforced

@David *******

It's the parasite "tax agents" who have slithered out of the woodwork are causing the fear-mongering. Sadly so many people have fallen into the trap. In the highly unlikely scenario where some expats *might* have to pay tax, there will be an amnesty, giving people plenty of opportunity to get their affairs in order
