Things are not as hot as they seem. It mainly concerns the big fish or companies that have deregistered in their country of origin and therefore do not pay any taxes at all. It will not affect all other countries with double taxation agreements significantly. Taxes here are cheaper than in Europe, so nothing can come of it. From the looks of it so far, a lot of hot air for nothing (if you have paid taxes up to now).

1 Up to 2 million it is 25 percent. 2 to 5 million 30 percent. Over 5 million 35 percent.

There are also many write-offs that can significantly reduce your income. Get a good tax advisor.

Correct, I had both letters from immigration, but they forgot to sign one of them. So I went back to immigration.

I got my driving license a few months ago. All in all it cost about 30 euros. The most expensive were the two letters from immigration (you need one for the car and one for the Motorcycle). Had the national and international driving license with me. The Thai driving licenses (at least mine) are initially valid for 2 years valid and will then be extended for a further 6 years.

Just the Media, never the gouvernment

The announcement alone does not constitute legal implementation. All laws only become effective when they are passed into law by the Royal Thai Gazette. And this always appears on Thursday. But because of the few euros or dollars it doesn't really matter. Within a few days I have the online visa And basing my holiday planning on a possible imminent visa arrangement is quite a strong thing

Why all the fuss? If I want to stay up to 60 days, I'll take the TR visa. No problems, no further questions about it.

People say a lot.....

This is the only correct answer 👍

I am very surprised by most of the answers. In Europe, travel insurance usually requires a primary residence in the country of insurance. Annual contracts are also limited to a maximum number of days per trip. I also receive (normally required, probably rarely checked) written confirmation from my insurance company the coverage for the respective travel destination as well as the duration of the trip.Maybe there is a loophole, but is it regular?????
