DTV is a tourist visa. Tourists don't pay income tax in Thailand

So how does he remain in the country? On 60-day visa exempt? 😂😂😆

Depends on Embassy/Consulate. I switched from non-O retirement to DTV, and all I did was register a business name, get an Australian Business Number (both of which can be done online very easily and low cost). I nominated my daughter as the "secretary" and she gave me a work contract (template online) stating my duties can be performed remotely in Thailand. The business consults and manages my Australian investment properties. Absolutely no dollar figures were given. I am simply a "remote worker". The approval took three days. Now I've got the five-year visa which beats the crap out of the pedantic non-O 👍👍

Easier to get nasty with someone trying to help you, than to admit you have little idea how "visa agents" operate in Thailand

This is the LOS (Land Of Scams). The OP doesn't even realise visa agents are neither licenced nor accountable.

You are aware your IDP must be from South Africa. Beware of online scams
