Have expats experienced double taxation in Thailand despite the DTA?

Charles ********

@Michael **********

yes, but you are still taxed by both. It's a common misconception of tax treaty that you will only be taxed by one which is what the OP question was about.

Tax treaties DO NOT STOP you from being taxed by both countries, they tell you how you WILL be taxed both countries.... Hope that helps.

There double tax treaties... Not anti-double tax treaties 😂🤣 similar to temporary refund adjustment is a tax hike.

Can you obtain a driving license and yellow book in Thailand on a Tourist Visa?

Charles ********

It depends on where you are. Some amphurs are impossible for foreigner to get a yellow book and other very easy. In general though, it's fairly hard to get.

Can I bring my wife and child with me on an ED visa to Thailand?

Charles ********

Your child can enter as a tourist/exempt and then overstay without penalty. The wife is the issue (they always are). You can leave her behind, or she can get her own visa. Depending on how long she might be able to play the bounce out game.

What are the best family-friendly places in Thailand for digital nomads with young children?

Charles ********

not an expert in schools, but I have noticed there pretty decent international schools in most areas. Maybe not top tier, but good ones. I doubt you would have trouble in Rayong.

Do I need to show proof of residency while living with my Thai girlfriend for a retirement visa in Thailand?

Charles ********

It really depends on the branch and the day. Go try the same bank she has with her and her house book and see if you can do it without.

How many times can you apply for a 60-day tourist visa in Thailand within a year?

Charles ********

@Kees *********

the 60 day is the only tourist visa, I think they were referring to the visa type rather.. They didn't specify they were going to stay 60 days each time. You are not required to stay 60 days and it can also be extended all would affect the outcome 🤷‍♂️ it was a silly question and I gave a silly answer.

@Kees *********

the question is how many times you can apply for, not maximum number of days you can stay. It's a single entry visa regardless if you stay less than 60 days and I stated staying only 1 day 🤷‍♂️
