What is not speculation, is that thailand is now moving to operate within global guidelines on taxation, ie it will no longer allow residents who remain in country more than 180 days to remain without registering for tax and submitting an annual return. Of course it’s everyone’s choice to ignore this requirement, and remain under the radar, possibly for years. However, tax liability does not expire, and back tax and penalties are unpleasant, if renewal of long term visas becomes dependent on providing a tax clearance certificate, the consequences will Involve a lot of pain, especially for those with tie’s here…..the sexpats, and nomads can just head for the airport and find the next tax haven, like Vietnam, Cambodia and Philippines it’s a personal choice as always.

That’s not going to be a bad thing if it happens, swamp needs clearing….i was at the tax office just last week, and everything automated they have all my records, incl bank interest I have received on line, so bank no longer deducts withholding tax as they have my tax number…… but it won’t be an issue until tax clearance cert is required to renew LT visa, then you will see a rush to the exit……rest of ASEAN is not far behind this is a global drive to ensure nobody escapes…..I saw it happening in SouthAfrica…..
