It's great to see more people taking advantage of this new visa. It's opened many doors for remote workers.

@Gerry *******

Agreed it depends on individual circumstances. I'm retired but I travel overseas frequently (I haven't done a 90-day report since covid), so the DTV is better for me on two fronts, it's cheaper plus no visits to immigration required. I have an investment property portfolio in Australia, so I've got a registered business (I'm the only employee) which administers the properties. This "job" can be done remotely so I qualify as a "remote worker" under the DTV guidelines. You are correct that Australian pensions are not taxable in Thailand, provided the recipient retains Australian Tax Residency which I easily do, so taxation in Thailand is not an issue for me

@John ******

Talks! 😂😂😂

@John ******

There's no changes. The 180 day rule has been in Thailand for years

@Graham ******

Exactly! I already pay too much in Australia at the high end!

@Graham ******

Exactly. So nothing to pay in Thailand. If there's a few pennies difference, they'll be offset by the deductible allowances. Laughing

@Jazi *******

Any income overseas is not subject to Thai tax. If you pay tax overseas you don't pay in Thailand

@Graham ******

I'd pay for the visa in Australia. However, this thread is about paying tax on remittances to Thailand. If there's no trace of any remittances there's no tax

@Graham ******

You don't pay anything 😂😂😂. You really don't know how this visa works do you? Just about every pensioner would have the equivalent of 500k baht in a home country bank or pension fund. Nothing is "remitted" to Thailand! 😂😂😂

@Graham ******

Zero IN Thailand yes
