In Chiang Mai over 16 years never had to return to show balance after 3 months.Never even had a home visit,same address.Marriage visa.Luck of the draw ?

@James *******

Never had one in 16 years at the same address in Chiang Mai.Presumed just lack of staff.

@Max **********

There is no logic why anything happens here 😔

You will get it.In 16 years never had a home visit in CM.Doubt they have the staff or the desire to check

@Matthew ********

Yes we can do it ourselves but it's pointless when you're travelling within the country and returning to the same address over and over for 16 years.House book has nothing to do with the insane repetition

Always some confusion about travelling within Thailand and returning to your previous address no need to do another TM 30.In our case 16 years at the same home we own.Different officers , different answers

@Damien *******

Yes taking on a moderator is a blow to an ego that won't be tolerated which is why a reply of mine is pending ie will be deleted 😕

Bit different in Bangkok if you compare numbers of people using Immigration,always wondered why they don't open more offices.Used to write off my only day off 20 years ago travelling across the city and joining the queue.

is the best teaching site in Thailand. Very helpful to me 20 + years ago

There's loads of videos on you tube if you simply search "Paying Tax in Thailand" becomes in play January 1 2025.No need for panic although there is an existing law it may well be "reviewed" due to backlash from Expats and unsurprisingly many Thais who benefit from our existence,paying rent etc.Take note of available deductibles,Age,married to a Thai,quite a list
