I have recurring sales of shares in every year in multiples of the needed amount. So it is not clearly defined, thanks, that is what I feared.

If you do not longer live in your country and have no abode your tax status ends in your home country with very few exceptions i.e. the US and Eritrea. Most countries have a 183 day rule so if you do not stay longer then 183 days you are off the hook in most countries. So no capital gains tax, withholding tax on dividends is a different matter. Which country are you refering to that taxes you without being present in the country?

I like to know before I apply :-)

You will never get a straight answer from them, my experience... Thanks.

Where do you get this information from? On the website it is clearly stated that you need health insurance for LTR. -Health insurance with at least USD 50,000 coverage or social security benefits insuring treatment in Thailand or at least USD 100,000 deposit. For my OA Visa on reentry I also had to show health insurance for the period I wanted to be stamped in i.e. a full year.

What is accepted as proof of 80K income? Could I send a bank receipt of shares I sold worth 80K USD? Thanks! For the record those sales do not show in a tax statement in Germany as they are taxed at source.

@Natalie *******

If you live in Thailand and do no longer live in your old country you do not have to pay taxes in your old country on investment income for example, with the exception being the USA as they tax on citizenship above 110K USA a year.

Ok thx but I guess you need to show at least a year longer when you re-enter in order to get a years stay. At least that is what is needed for OA Visa. Thanks!

Did you need to show a Health insurance for ten years?

Sorry I forgot I want to get an OA Visa from German consulate Frankfurt . Depends on lot of things I know, thanks!
