Happy Thailand If you are in TH more than 180 days a year you become tax resident of TH regardless of where you claim your tax residency. Same for most other countries.

Yes, that's no good, don't give them any easy reason to reject you. Wait until you have the required history and apply then.

Stay away. There's usually one month deposit but only upon signing the contract.

Anonymous participant 349 That's not correct

The nearest embassy or consulate in the country where you currently are

@Oleg **********

You're supposed to get 180 days

1. If you're in Vietnam and you reside in Korea it's No obv. Put down your address in VN, then no, then the address in Korea.

2. Answer: Yes

3. Check if you need any at all, only citizens of certain countries need that

And yes, check why your application was rejected, if no reason was given you could have a guess, and improve that

@Zdenek ********

I had pending approval on my first try for around one day, then it was flat out rejected. Be careful.

Have you ever looked at the exchange rate foreign banks give you? Some will also charge fees on top of that

@Golden ***

It's not even about the money. The whole process was like, we DGAF. First I had this like one week delay until I got some instructions from an 18th century chatbot or whatever that was to work around the first software bug, then all of my carefully curated docs were basically trashed by their very own second software bug that they failed to fix in at least well over 6 months or something. An no point of contact, help, whatsoever...

But what can you do, I guess we live in a medieval society, not just in TH....
