That only works if you are still registered with municipality in the NL. Otherwise you'll find out mate. Just read your banks website, no need to believe me.

@Michael ********
Situation for NL is same as mentioned by OP, when no longer having an address in the country. In case you remain in EU you can keep some bank account at extra costs but i.e. dont have credit cards anymore. If you leave EU a nd do not have an address in the country they close the accounts.

With so many people making claims based on old. incorrect info (i.e. I've seen you make statements before that you had to correct afterwards)

While I feel the OP should consult professional advisor for his situation. And I am completely unaware of AU rules. And I am not a tax expert. But having said this, it was my understanding that if Thailand applies a higher tax rate over the relevant income than what has already paid in Aust, then Thailand could choose to tax that "gap".

(i.e. ignoring all else and just a random number it could look like 30% relevant tax rate in TH and 15% relevant tax rate in AU --> this leaves a 30-15 = 15% tax gap to get to the highest possible tax rate; if TH would tax you on this it would not be double taxation but applying local rules).

Again don't disagree as you make a lot of sense and the req. are though. My guess is they're just looking to make it easier for more MNC's to setup a small shop, to ultimately attract them to expand buss. in TH (and attract knowledge, labor etc). Many ways lead to Rome and they selected this specific one?

I don't disagree with you. The targeted companies i.c.w. expected no. of LTRs don't make sense. At the same time I also imagine a thought process behind the requirements like 'big companies' having to do with a fair level of abuse they want to prevent, i.e. not have (paper only) companies just to get 'a visa'.

Ask your daddy for a lot of money and invest it in Thailand.
